The Jabba Tape Rating: TimeLine: 5 years after the Battle at Yavin Author: John Wagner Art/Pencils:Killian Plunkett Colors/Inks:Dave Nestelle Published: 1998 Review by: Lt. Vex Aldrin Old Friends: Spike and the Gizzman from "Shadows of the Empire", (and maybe Gorga too) New Faces: Ohon and Ding Places: one place...Tatooine Synopsis: They're baaaack! Spiker and the Gizzman from "Shadows of the Empire" aren't dead at all. Fixed up by the B'Omarr monks, Jabba's swoopscum have a new plan to earn money now that Jabba's dead. They're planning on taking Jabba's secret ship The Spirit of Jabba and become pirates. But, what they dunno is that the ship has a priceless cargo. Jabba's nephew, Gorga the Hutt, does know that and also wants the ship... Review: *LAMO* Spiker and the Big Gizz rule! This little one-shot comic is definitely worthy of 5 stars! John Wagner has made a hell of a story. Okay, some of thelines of Gizzman or Spiker are predictable, but who cares...It's funny! And the art? Plunkett is cool, really nice. Especiall the cover - good job! A parody on an existing Star Wars poster. Buy it! Love it! Spiker and Big Gizz Rock!! note: This is a one time comic from Dark Horse, it is not available on amazon, but you can order it from Dark Horse or try and find it at your local comic store.
