Biography[]
Crimson Jack was a space pirate who made his career ambushing spice caravans in the Outer Rim Territories during the years of the Galactic Civil War. Along with his sidekick Jolli, Jack has had several run-ins with the smuggler known as Han Solo and his first mate Chewbacca the wookie.
In the months leading up to the Battle of Yavin, Jack and his crew managed to commandeer an Imperial Star Destroyer. He encountered Han Solo and Chewbacca after they had left Yavin IV on their way to pay back money that they owed to Jabba the Hutt. Jack intercepted Han's ship the Millennium Falcon and confiscated the reward money that Solo had received for rescuing Rebel Alliance leader Leia Organa. Jack was kind enough however to leave Solo with his ship. [1]
