...Boba Fett lived and died a bounty hunter...
The Last One Standing: The Tale of Boba Fett...The majority of the story takes place 15 years after Return of the Jedi, when Fett fell into the sarlacc;[4] his escape was dealt with in another short story by the author subtitled The Tale of Boba Fett...
&
A Barve Like That: The Tale of Boba Fett...creative differences with Lucasfilm prevented him from writing the outline he envisioned. He planned to have Boba Fett spend years in the sarlacc, but was told he could only be there for a couple of days...
Depending on what you consider "
canon" Boba Fett surviving the Sarlac Pit (Pit of the Sarlacc?) dates back to the mid-nineties. I think it even predates the LucasFilm abortions known as Episodes I-III...
Those stories were all "officially licensed Star Wars" shit, although I will accept the position that they do not count as "
canon." I don't know, Admiral Thrawn isn't
canon, but I sure enjoyed working for/against him in the original X-wing & Tie Fighter games when I was a lad. I also enjoyed the non-
canon Ewok Holocaust, because they were supposed to be Wookies, dammit...
This "Neutering of Entartaintment" you grouse about is nothing
neu, Doc...
