On this episode of What A Piece Of Junk, a Star Wars Podcast, your 'Drunken Gungan' crew discuss: 
'Shadows of the Empire' (1996) 

Topic: Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire is a 1996 multimedia project created by Lucasfilm. The idea was to create a story set between the films The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, and to explore all commercial possibilities of a full motion picture release without actually making a film. The venture was intended to reinvigorate interest in the franchise ahead of the theatrical Special Editions of the Star Wars trilogy released the following year.

 

Several products were released, including a novel, comic book series, video game, soundtrack, trading cards, role-playing games, posters, model kits, and a variety of toys.

The story introduces Rebel ally Dash Rendar, who aids the heroes in their attempt to liberate the frozen Han Solo from bounty hunter Boba Fett. Meanwhile, Darth Vader continues the search for his son, Luke Skywalker, whom crime lord Prince Xizor attempts to kill in his plot to replace Vader at the side of Emperor Palpatine.
