Classic Star Wars: A Long Time Ago... Volume 2: Dark Encounters


Archie Goodwin - 2002

Or a team of vengeful imperial brothers, led by Baron Orman Tagge, who seek to bring the frozen fury of their Omega Frost to Tatooine and the Rebel Alliance fleet? Or an early version of Jabba the Hutt as a humanoid seal instead of a drooling space slug?
