Star Wars: Blood Ties - Boba Fett Is Dead #1

Dark Horse kicks off this four-part 2012 miniseries with a cover that doesn't shy away from its provocative premise — Boba Fett's battered Mandalorian armor-clad body lies sprawled face-up on a sun-scorched, cracked desert surface, his blaster pistol knocked loose beside him, and the bold tagline "Boba Fett Is Dead" leaves little ambiguity about the story's central hook. Chris Scalf's painted cover work is striking, rendering the galaxy's most feared bounty hunter in dusty, weathered detail that suits the harsh, arid setting perfectly. Writer Tom Taylor and artist Chris Scalf together make this an intriguing first chapter that promises a compelling mystery for fans of the Star Wars universe.
