Star Wars: Boba Fett – Black, White and Red #2 Review: Like a filler episode
The second issue of Star Wars: Boba Fett: Black, White and Red has been released, taking readers to Meddan, a new planet in the Star Wars universe. Meddan resembles other heavily populated worlds like Coruscant or Nar Shaddaa, filled with shady characters and underworld activity.
Boba Fett's Relentless Pursuit
Boba Fett remains one of the galaxy’s most determined bounty hunters, unstoppable in his mission. Nothing, not even credits, faction conflicts, or rival hunters, can stop him from completing the job. His latest target is Samu Mavolak, a notorious fugitive known for being almost impossible to catch.
The Elusive Prey: Samu Mavolak
Mavolak has earned a reputation by owing money to nearly everyone he's encountered and mastering the art of escape. He even briefly outsmarted Boba Fett, until his trick was quickly uncovered. Despite Boba Fett's dangerous reputation, he displays moments of humanity toward his quarry. For a brief moment, the story evokes a sense similar to that of Din Djarin’s tales.
"Boba Fett might be incredibly dangerous, but he’s not a monster."
This humanizing detail gives the story a subtle twist, differentiating it from typical bounty hunter narratives, though otherwise it follows familiar themes.
About Samu Mavolak
Samu Mavolak belongs to the Zeltron species, recognizable by their distinctive red skin.
Author's summary: This issue offers a typical Boba Fett bounty hunter tale with a brief touch of empathy, but overall feels like a filler episode with familiar Star Wars underworld elements.
