Synopsis:
This book collects together the following comic stories:
-
The Gaar
Suppoon Hit
Jabba the Hutt lives to negotiate, and the art of
the deal is his only discipline. But the goods he
trades are the lives of others, and in that line of
business you can't lose your head. In this
self-contained story, Jabba finds himself bartering
with Garr Suppoon, rumored to be an absolute devil
at the negotiating table. There's a valuable lesson
to be learned here: In a deal with the devil, you
can always refuse. In a deal with Jabba, it's not
advised.
-
The Hunger of
Princess Nampi
Jabba has an old saying: If you can't beat 'em, buy
'em out! And that's just what he attempts to do when
he encounters an unexpected nemesis on his journey
through the galaxy. But he may have to part with
something more personal than his precious spice if
he's going to close this deal!
-
The Dynasty
Trap
Jabba has got a hot freighter on his hands and he's
looking to unload it, quickly and discreetly. Enter
Cabrool Nuum, a second-hand ship trader whose
reputation for discretion is as long as his many
years in the business. Unfortunately for Jabba, the
years seem to have caught up with Cabrool, and his
murderous offspring have taken advantage of the old
man's dotage, just as they plan to take advantage of
Jabba's impending arrival! In a seedy corner of the
galaxy, on a planet of back-stabbing opportunists,
Jabba the Hutt is about to land face first in The
Dynasty Trap!
-
Betrayal
Everyone hopes to get a big break someday, move up
to the top seat in their line of work. But when that
line of work is intergalactic crime, you've got to
make your own breaks. Bib Fortuna, Jabba's loyal
lieutenant, has plotted a slave revolt against the
Hutt. We've seen how Jabba handles negotiations --
now we'll see how he handles Betrayal.
