The backstory behind Boushh takes center stage in the pages of War of the Bounty Hunters -- Boushh #1, a one-shot tie-in to the crossover event that lays the foundation for a potential mini-series or, at the very least, more stories to come in the upcoming Crimson Reign five-issue mini. It's a deftly written, lushly illustrated story about Boushh and four more Ubese, as well as a deeper dive into Domina Tagge, too, a character whose manipulations have been threading through the second volume of Doctor Apha.
In Darth Vader #16, Greg Pak's exploration of Vader's pursuit of Skywalker is given another vantage point as Luke gamely tries to draw out his father's attention so that Leia, Lando and Chewie can make an honest push at rescuing Han Solo before he's taken to the SSD Eexecutor. While portions of the issue may seem familiar (if you've read the previous issues of Star Wars and WotBH, they are), it provides a telling base for Ochi's devotion to Vader and Sly Moore's to Palpatine.
In The High Republic-era The Monster of Temple Peak #2, Ty Yorick gains an almost padawan, despite her efforts not to, as the lushly illustrated mini-series that should have been released as a graphic novel (as it was suppose to be) moves forward in its storytelling.
