The excitement leading into the final two episodes of The Book of Boba Fett has been building and yesterday's penultimate installment did not dissapoint!
Plenty of familiar faces made appearances, but perhaps the most exciting moment for Star Wars fans of the animated shows was the live-action debut of the notorious bounty hunter Cad Bane.
For those unfamiliar with the character, Cad Bane is a Duros bounty hunter and mercenary whose career spanned from the fall of the Galactic Republic, the reign of the Glactic Empire, and into the era of the New Republic. He was considered one of the best bounty hunters during the Clone Wars after the death of Jango Fett.
There have been rumors that Bane may appear in the Star Wars Disney+ series, but after Fett and Fennec Shand began recruiting muscle for their war with the Pykes over the course of the last few episodes, many assumed the mercenary side with Lord Fett. But true to his ruthless nature, the Duros sharp-shooter sold his services to the highest bidder.
After gunning down Cobb Vanth on behalf of the Pyke Syndicate, the stage has been set for an epic showdown with Fett, Shand and Din Djarin in next Wednesday's season finale.
About The Author:
ComicBookMovie.com and Best Little Sites was the brainchild of Nate and a friend way back in 2002. Nate initially focused on the back-end programming and front-end design, but now manages the company and its associated sites as well, with a LOT of help from some very talented contributors.
Nate has loved comics from a very young age and continues to read them on a regular basis thanks to subscriptions to various titles (both Marvel and DC). He also loves movies, as his wife and children will attest. He's not overly critical of movies, so his reviews should be taken with a grain of salt as he's much more interested in being entertained and escaping the "real" world for a couple of hours than finding every conceivable plot-hole and character flaw in a film.
Outside of his guilty "nerdy" pleasures, Nate enjoys spending time with his wife and three boys, CrossFit, playing guitar, coaching youth sports and MMA (he spent a couple of years in the cage as an NHB fighter, but is now MUCH too old).
