Episode #167 -- One Time for the One Time

The man in the Mandalorian armor has long been a draw for Star Wars comics since that appearance in the Star Wars Holiday Special. While we would have been talking Boba Fett in today's release of Star Wars -- Bounty Hunters #3, not to mention Star Wars Adventures: The Clone Wars -- Battle Tales #2, the lack of new comics didn't deter us.Despite his limited screen time in The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, Boba Fett holds a special place for lots of fans. His appeal is enduring and it's the focus of a key new story created by Matt Harding (@Stilltsinc) and Josef Sison (@JosefSison), a pair of comics creatives, whose fan-produced Boba Fett sports some familiar faces and places in a uniquely crafted story with a twist ending.
