I suggested a couple of Boba Fett story ideas - and while neither of them went anywhere, they did prompt a discussion about western movies we both liked Jeremy wondered what a movie like Shane would have been like with Boba Fett in the mysterious stranger role. Dark Horse hadn’t done original graphic novels for Star Wars for a while, but with the 30th anniversary of A New Hope approaching in 2007, it seemed there was an opportunity. The KOTOR Handbookdid eventually happen, but in August my editor Jeremy Barlow asked me to shelve the mini-series idea in favor of proposing an original Star Wars graphic novel instead. Sales were good, and I was working with the publisher to find some additional projects - suggesting everything from a KOTOR Handbook to a Moomo Brothers/Gryph miniseries (under my tentative title “Scoundrels,” which became the title for a later Star Wars novel).


In 2006, Dark Horse released the first year of my Knights of the Old Republiccomics.
