[The Force Unleashed II] Boba Fett to star in The Force Unleashed II's comic story:
Discussing Dark Horse Comics' graphic novel adaptation by Haden Blackman and Omar Francia, Executive Editor Randy Stradley had previously
[External site - opens in a new window/tab] stated that: "instead of simply adapting the actual story of the game, Haden Blackman came up with a parallel story that covers the main story, but reveals an untold story about one of the game's secondary (but still vitally important) characters. You could play the game a dozen times, but you'll only get our story in the graphic novel". Well it appears that that "secondary character" is none other than Boba Fett himself for Randy has revealed at San Diego Comic-Con that the graphic novel adaptation of The Force Unleashed II's story will focus on Boba Fett's role in the game's story giving adaptation readers the choice of two story arcs of the game to follow: the novel adaptation by Sean Williams or the graphic novel adaptation by Haden Blackman and Omar Francia.
