All-new comic strip adventures, based on the characters and worlds created by George Lucas. spotlight on those with an appetite for the chase and a hunger for chaos. The vilest villains, the deadliest mercenaries, the dark underbelly of a galaxy at war is exposed as never before. Meet Aurra Sing, the dark femme fatale who strikes without warning or mercy, Dengar, 4-Lom and Bossk, whose prey is the pilot of a certain Millennium Falcon, and Kenix Kil, the bounty-hunter with an even darker past, one that begins with the rise and fall of the Crimson Empire!

The Bounty Hunters

This TPB includes three stand-alone comics about Aurra Sing, Kir Kanos, and Lando Calrissian. Aurra Sing follows the titular character as she hunts down a fallen Jedi who has hired two Shi'ido to disguise themselves as him and throw off pursuit. Kenix Kil follows Kir Kanos as he establishes himself as the bounty hunter Kenix Kil, a persona he uses in the larger Crimson Empire series. And in Scoundrel's Wages, Lando finds himself on the wrong side of Quaffag the Hutt while on a mission for the Rebellion and ends up being hunted by a group of bounty hunters on Xokhal. Aurra Sing is definitely the best of the three stories here, highlighting Aurra's intelligence and ruthlessness. Scoundrel's Wages had the weirdest artwork; Lando looked downright disturbing a couple of times. Kenix Kil was largely just meh.
