Has the book "The Chronicles of Jabba The Hutt" been written?
His cousin Jabber has been featured here on Dredd Blog (Jabber The Whut?, 2, 3, 4, 5).
Jabber's cousin is infamous:
"Jabba the Hutt (/ˈdʒɑːbə/ JAH-bə) is a fictional character in the Star Wars franchise. He is a large, slug-like crime lord of the Hutt species. Jabba first appeared in the 1983 film Return of the Jedi, in which he is portrayed by a one-ton puppet operated by several puppeteers. In 1997, he appeared in the Special Edition of the original Star Wars film, which had been retitled Star Wars: Episode IV—A New Hope. Jabba made his third film appearance in the 1999 prequel film The Phantom Menace. He is voiced by Larry Ward in Return of the Jedi and by Scott Schumann in A New Hope and The Phantom Menace.
Jabba lives in a palace on the desert planet Tatooine. He places a bounty on the smuggler Han Solo, and sends bounty hunters to capture him. After Darth Vader freezes Solo in carbonite, the bounty hunter Boba Fett delivers the frozen Solo to Jabba, who puts him on display in his palace. A group of Solo's friends attempt to rescue him, but Jabba captures them; he enslaves Princess Leia and decrees that Luke Skywalker, Chewbacca, and Solo will be fed to a Sarlacc. Luke orchestrates an escape, and during the chaos Leia strangles Jabba to death"
(Wikipedia Jabba Der Whut). That "Leia" was Princess Leia.
There is some skuttlebutt that Jabber was brought to the Whut House by a prisoner trade done between the Prison at Whut? Gaza on the Island of Sand Just south of Mars.
Reportedly, Elan Must negotiated the art of that deal.
Happy Felontines Day!
