View on Instagram#MandalorianMonday: Yesterday marked the newspaper comic strip debut of #BobaFett! On June 19, 1980, he appeared in the original #StarWars newspaper comic alongside #HanSolo, #LukeSkywalker, and others.
The easiest way to get the comic for yourself is the 1997 trade paperback, available on Amazon: http://amzn.to/28ImBNT
The comic was written by Russ Manning with artwork by Al Williamson. The reinvigorated color and updated format was done by Rick Hoberg.

View on InstagramThis #FettFriday, we're mixing things up with #BobaFett's arch rival: Jodo Kast!
Shown here is Steve Argyle's rendering for the Star Wars Galaxies Trading Card Game.
Kast, an imposter Fett look-alike, had his debut in the RPG "Tatooine Manhunt" (1988) and what appeared to be a big demise in "Twin Engines of Destruction" (1996).
He also had a cameo in the video game "#StarWars: Masters of Teras Kasi" (1997), plus two action figures (2008 and 2010).
