Janek "Tank" Sunber is a fictional military officer and a minor recurring character featured in the Star Wars multimedia franchise. He was first referenced in the 1977 film Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope in a single line of dialogue by Luke Skywalker. When Owen Lars pleaded for Luke to forego his dreams of going to the Academy in favor putting in one more year on the farm, Luke said "Yeah, that's what you said when Biggs and Tank left". The character was expanded upon in alternative media, most notably the "To the Last Man" storyline chronicled in issues #16-18 of the Star Wars: Empire comic book series published by Dark Horse Comics.
