This is a hero draft, and you took Bobba Fett, he is not a hero, so boo on you for not following the spirit of this thing. Bobba Fett is a villainous (and extremely lame) mercenary hired to capture Han Solo ( and a lame throwaway character to boot). Picking him gets a dislike from me.

As James Storm would say, sorry about your damn luck.

[Demko]

Yeah, I got the same when I tried to justify a villain team in the Superhero draft. Now that I'm on the other side, I totally see Doug's point.

Well, not to get nerdy or anything, but there's a whole expanded universe of Star Wars fiction with more Fett stories that casts him as more of an anti-hero or at least just a hired gun who's only doing things as a job, with no real desire to do harm. Except to Jedi, but we know what that's all about. And he's not so throwaway in the Clone Wars series and it's rumoured he'll be an important one in the Live Action Star Wars TV show, if it ever gets made.

THAT's an anti-hero, Mr. Fett

[Demko]

Wow, I'll be SUPER interested to see what team Bickle lands on. I have a hard time seeing him work with anyone, really.

If we're ever attacked by killer pimps, I want Bickle on my team.

How is he a villain? He's a gun for hire, nothing more. There are "heroes" picked in this thing that have murdered far more people than Fett.

[Doug]

I never said he was a villain for killing people. I firmly believe that you can kill someone and still be considered the hero. However because I have not read any of the Star Wars books or watched the cartoons or any of that other stuff, I can only judge him based on what I saw in the movies. In them Fett worked for A. Darth Vader, and B. Jabba the Hutt, both of whom were villains. On top of that, all he really did in the movies was track the heroes to cloud city. Vader did all the work of capturing them, and when they escaped from Jabba, he got shot out of the air in one shot and ate by a sandworm. I've only ever seen him fight heroes, and not even very well at that. I just don't understand the OMG he's so awesome stance most Star Wars fans take for him.
