Bounty Hunters 32

Bounty Hunters 32 is the thirty-second issue of the 2020 canon comic book series Star Wars: Bounty Hunters. The issue was written by Ethan Sacks, illustrated by Alessandro Miracolo and Arif Prianto, and published by Marvel Comics on March 8, 2023.

Publisher's summary[]

Zuckuss is teetering between life and death… A mysterious event has put the Gand bounty hunter in a deep coma reliving his past. Can T'onga and 4-LOM save Zuckuss before his mind is lost? And before the Empire's most lethal unit hunting Valance catches up to them…

Plot summary[]

"THE LOST FINDSMEN"

T'onga's team of bounty hunters has successfully saved Valance
from the clutches of Darth Vader—but at great cost. After Valance
discovered he had lost the woman he once loved, he was shot in the
face and knocked off a cliff by his current lover.

The dangers, however, are just beginning for the crew. The ''Edgehawk''
is being pursued by a new Imperial threat: the elite Inferno Squad! Iden
Versio and her squad will stop at nothing to wipe Valance's memories
after the cyborg observed top-secret plans for a new Death Star!

Unbeknownst to all of them, a Force Wave has been released by the
destruction of the Fermata Cage and is spreading across the galaxy.
A wave that may have deadly ramifications for one bounty hunter….

Development[]

On September 14, 2022, writer Ethan Sacks tweeted that he was currently writing the script for the issue.^[4] Sacks discovered not much pre-existing lore existed for the planet Gand and thus was able to, in his own words, leave his own thumbprint behind on the Star Wars galaxy via issue 32.^[5]

Continuity[]

On the second page, the Raider II-class corvette Corvus is depicted in its modified New Republic version, when at the start of Star Wars Battlefront II, which takes place after this issue, the Corvus is depicted in its Imperial version.^[6]
