Boba Fett - Black, White & Red #4

The four-issue mini-series concludes with a single adventure of Boba Fett drawn in black, white, and red. Boba Fett - Black, White & Red #4 features the death of Grand Moff Tarkin's niece by an assassin targeting the overprivileged families of Eriadu City. With Tarkin and the Empire too busy with other matters, the girl's parents hire Boba Fett to bring in the assassin.

A pretty straightforward tale (and a tad overpriced at $6), Fett's searching for the Shadow of Bri-Phrang (as locals have begun to refering to the assassin) is complicated by another bounty hunter after the same prey. Eventually Raslin Grace decides to take out the competition first, which doesn't turn out well for her our the assassin (who Fett basically uses Grace, another overprivileged elite hunting for sport rather than money, as bait).
