"The StarWars.com 10: Best Bounty Hunters" Topic

"Bounty hunters. We don't need their scum." So said Admiral Piett in The Empire Strikes Back, though he couldn't be more wrong. Bounty hunters have played a huge role in Star Wars, often doing the dirty work for the series' major villains, whether it's killing a senator or capturing a rogue smuggler. Many have become icons in their own right — sometimes based solely on appearance, leaving it to the audience to imagine what they're capable of. For this list, we looked at bounty hunters in the Star Wars films and on Star Wars: The Clone Wars, and ranked them according to several factors, including their job success rate, combat ability, and which are the most "fearless and inventive…"

Good article, totally disagree with 1 and 2 though, they're reversed, Boba Fett is THE Bounty Hunter!! lol

I think Dengar should've been higher as well, and probably 4-Lom or Zuckuss at 10 (as a duo) instead of Wessel…just my opinion.

Still…nice article!

Thanks!

Glad you enjoyed it my friend!. (smile).

I agree with Zonk, Boba Fett is the best Bounty Hunter! (In my opinion ofcourse)

I think Boba as #2 and Bane as #1 fits. All through SW we're *told* how awesome Boba is. All through CW we're *shown* how awesome Bane is. Big difference.

Not exactly true if you read some of the novels, Bounty Hunter wars, for example.

Plus, I don't recall Bane blasting his way out of a Sarlacc's belly either….:)

Just sayin' ;)

Either way, it's all good, it was just my opinion anyways. I will say this for Bane, he was good against Jedi for the most part, and probably more clever than Fett (both).

I read the majority of novels and, sorry, I don't agree. The one time we see Boba go against a Jedi he gets his rear handed to him when the Jedi is outnumbered, out-gunned, and in cuffs.

We routinely see Bane take it to them, as you yourself pointed out. You even acknowledged that he's more clever.

I think everyone has a 30-year love for him because of his armor. But by actual skills, it's Bane.

Boba's claim to fame was tracking the Falcon and then calling the Empire to actually do the heavy lifting. We can, and have, seen Bane storm high security areas for high value targets and do it himself.

Oh, and Bane never would have ended up in the Sarlaac's belly to begin with. That's kind of like being awarded the Enemy Marksmanship Award because you didn't duck.

I believe I stated Bane was more clever than Fett. Fett was known as one of the most feared Bounty Hunters in the galaxy for a reason, perhaps it hasn't been established in some form of movie/cartoon/book/bathroom graffiti yet.

Fett went up against Skywalker(true he was young),oh yeah, he's the same guy that went up against Vader too(he was older, but mostly robotic sooo….) :)

Gotta love a good Star Wars debate.

Disagree all you want, in the end, it really doesn't matter ;)
