Star Wars: The Bounty Hunters - Kenix Kil |
After the events in Crimson Empire, former Imperial Guardsman Kir Kanos is on the run from both the Empire and the New Republic. He stops on Baramorra for supplies and while there learns that a relative of Imperial Admiral Banjeer is the local crime boss. Kanos takes some steps to infiltrate traitor Boss Banjeer's bounty hunter organization. He buys himself some weapons and armor and becomes the bounty hunter Kenix Kil. When Boss Banjeer shows interest in his work, "Kil" reveals that he's after the fugitive Kir Kanos and knows where he's hiding. Banjeer glady sends his bounty hunters along for the search. "Kil" leads them to a secluded area and slaughters them all. He then goes after Banjeer. Later, Kanos leaves the planet and plans to go work for Grappa the Hutt in order to get a shot at Admiral Banjeer.

The Story While I've enjoyed Stradley's work in the past, especially his Aliens/Predator stories, this one leaves me bland.
The Art Conclusions 4/10. Not Recommended.
