Failed Bounty Hunters of Star Wars

My pal Greg Mitchell has been busy writing up a storm for Star Wars. His article The Not-so-Magnificent Seven is all about bounty hunters who were not successful in their tasks. Some are obscure, some a little less so. Here's an excerpt:


At Warhog’s insistence, Greedo pursued the bounty on Correllian smuggler Han Solo — the bounty that would make Greedo galaxy-renowned. Upon cornering the evasive rogue in Chalmun’s Cantina in Mos Eisley, Greedo drew his pistol, prepared to collect on Solo’s bounty and — at long last — earn his rightful reputation as the son of Greedo the Elder.
What happened next is the stuff of drunken cantina arguments and endless debate. 
It's good reading - go Greg! You can read the whole thing here.
