Furlag (1)
Basic info
First appearance: Shadows of the Empire (Comic)
Relations: Bounty Hunter
Summary
Furlag was a small-time bounty hunter with large, batlike ears. Operating during the height of the Galactic Empire, he was not well-known, but often worked with other prominent bounty hunters, such as Zuckuss and 4-LOM. He, Zuckuss, and 4-LOM were subcontracted by fellow hunter Skorr on Ord Mantell during the early Galactic Civil War in the hunt for a group of prospective Rebels. The bounty hunters tracked them to a spaceport on Ord Mantell; they found Rebel agent Kestrel there, and began firing at her, but the Rebel was able to escape into a ship. Furlag's quarry was able to flee the planet. Furlag held Skorr responsible for the botching of the mission, and was furious with the other hunter. Several years later, Furlag again teamed up with 4-LOM and Zuckuss as well as several other bounty hunters including the Trandoshan Bossk to attempt to pry Han Solo's carbonite-encased body from Boba Fett. Furlag was present along with several other members of the loose coalition during an attempt on Fett's life on Gall, which was intended to distract the Mandalorian long enough for other bounty hunters to retrieve Solo from his ship, Slave I. Fett escaped, though, and fled the planet; Furlag and the others gave chase in Bossk's ship, the Hound's Tooth, eventually catching up with Fett. Furlag was part of a boarding party which managed to apprehend and disarm Fett on Slave I. The batlike bounty hunter was then charged with escorting Fett to the ship's force cages and imprisoning him. Fett, however, was able to outsmart the less-experienced bounty hunter; in an elevator, he activated an unused crawl shaft, sending Furlag to meet his death in space.
