Star Wars: Comics In Canon – Han Solo & Chewbacca Vol 1: Han Solo Meets His Dad? The Job That Went Wrong Before A New Hope, Plus Greedo, Krrsantan, Jabba The Hutt & More (Han & Chewie #1-5) – Ep 107

ON A JOB THAT GOES SOUTH, DOES HAN SOLO MEET HIS ESTRANGED FATHER? Ep 107 is set in the years between Solo and A New Hope, where Han & Chewie are up to no good again! Join us on the first 5 issues (of 10) of their time doing a job for Jabba The Hutt where nothing seems to go right for the duo; they meet a man claiming to be Han’s father, have to work with the nefarious Greedo, Chewie gets in (another) violent confrontation with the Wookiee bounty hunter Krrsantan plus so much more! Some unexpected familiar faces also appear…

This episode was first released on the feed of Comics In Motion, in September 2022.

This story is set after the movie Solo but before A New Hope, approximately 2-8 years before the Battle of Yavin (8-2BBY).

Han Solo & Chewbacca’s first arc; The Crystal Run, was written by Marc Guggenheim, the artist was David Messina and the colour artist was Alex Sinclair. Issue 1 was released March 9th 2022, issue 5 was released August 10th 2022 and the trade paperback collection is due for release November 8th 2022.

For other Han Solo content, Mike tackled his time in the Imperial army in ep 10 of SWCIC, Han is in the majority of 2015 Star Wars comics, which starts in ep 9 and Han’s Age Of Rebellion comic is tackled in episode 47. If you want to hear Han & Chewie’s canon Life Day adventure, check episode 83 of SWCIC.

Previously, in ep 106, Mike delved into the third batch of Crimson Reign comics, where the Crimson Dawn conspiracy continues to unravel in a galaxy of chaos. The Archivist searches the galaxy for the green Jedi Master while the bounty hunter crew plan to capture Vukorah, Aphra & Sana’s search for the Spark Eternal nears its end, Sabé works to manipulate Vader and Qi’ra bargains with Leia while Zahra tortures Shara Bay – all of this is tackled this week, plus Mike provides information on Jeremy Bulloch’s non-Boba-Fett character and more.
