The Last One Standing: The Tale of Boba Fett is a short story written by Daniel Keys Moran for Tales of the Bounty Hunters which was published in December 1996 by Bantam Spectra. It is the first of many stories concerning the background of Boba Fett, the most infamous bounty hunter in the galaxy.
The story follows the adventures of a young Boba Fett, who is under the alias of the great Mandalorian, a man named Jaster Mereel, a convicted murderer who was exiled from his home planet of Concord Dawn. It spans from 15 BBY to 19 ABY.
[edit] Behind the scenes
- Originally this story was considered to be the official background story for Boba Fett, but when Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones was released, its depiction of Fett's childhood contradicted the Jaster Mereel backstory.
- Jango Fett: Open Seasons retconned the Jaster Mereel character to be a different individual: the mentor of Fett's father, Jango Fett. Boba Fett took Jaster's name as an alias during his time as a Journeyman Protector, thus saving the story from being apocryphal.
