Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire (comic series)

Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire was a six-issue comic miniseries by Dark Horse Comics released monthly between May 1 and October 1, 1996 as part of the Shadows of the Empire multimedia project. A five-issue sequel series titled Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire: Evolution was released between February 11 and June 17, 1998.

While the events of the comic coincide with the events of the novel, the comic does not follow much of the exploits of Leia, Lando and the mysterious villainess Guri, who here plays only a minor supportive role; on the other hand it includes a generous amount of what Boba Fett was up to during that time, the rivalry with his fellow bounty hunters, and Wrenga Jixton's mission on Tatooine.
