More Backstory Than We'll Ever Need

[4thofeleven]

A friend was joking about cosplaying as 'Return of the Jedi Leia' – not slave Leia, but Leia in concealing bounty hunter disguise. And I made a joke about there being a second volume of Tales From Jabba's Palace that details in absurd detail the backstories of all the items of clothing there.

Then I remembered that Shadows of the Empire actually did feel the need to provide an explanation for how Leia acquired the bounty hunter disguise. And an explanation for where she got the thermal detonator.

I... I'm kinda glad Disney's announcing they're wiping the EU and starting fresh.
