"I've been looking forward to this moment for a long time, Solo" utters the over zealous Rodian bounter hunter, Greedo, as he sits opposite Han Solo in the Mos Eisley Cantina. Greedo has been hired by Jabba the Hutt to 'bring Han in to pay his debt' and thus collect a bounty placed on his head by the vile gangster.
Han claims not to have the money on him when Greedo, losing his patience with the scoundrel smuggler, fires his blaster at near point blank range and MISSES! Proving to be the last bad decision he would ever make, Greedo is incinerated by Han's powerful blaster pistol as he returns fire. Han then casually exits the Cantina leaving Greedo's corpse smouldering in the booth.
Contrary to Imperial propaganda, there is NO evidence to support their theory that "Han Shot First" in what would have been an act of cold-blooded, callous murder. To support this, the Jedi Order commisioned a propaganda poster to address the issue. The poster is presented here for the first time.
"Sorry about the mess, Empire!" Case closed.
Han shot first thats what made him a badass. He knew it was the only way to get away. Him firing first and killing Greedo would account for Greedo missing at point blank range.
