Behold Cad Bane!

Boba Fett as we know him isn't gonna be around for another couple of years and Pappa Jango is presumably buried somewhere (hopefully with his head) so why not have a little fun with the title of "Best Bounty Hunter?" Enter Cad Bane! This character was supposedly gonna look like Durge, but George Lucas requested he look a little more like Lee Van Cleef from the Man with No Name trilogy. Id say the nailed the look. I cant wait for this Friday's season finale of Clone Wars!

I love that new (and old) characters are being introduced, especially when they appear to be total badasses like Cad Bane. It looks like Aurra Sing will be getting her looong over due shot at some more screentime as well. More after the jump!

You'll recall Sing's all too brief appearance in Episode One: The Phantom Menace, during the pod race sequence. Like with most characters with brief appearances in Star Wars films, Aurra Sing has taken on a life of her own. From her Wookiepedia entry:

"Fear me, Jedi! I am Aurra Sing, Nashtah, scourge of your kind! I haunt your darkest dreams! I drink Jedi blood; I nest in their guts! Your nightmares now have a name, hierophant, and that name is Aurra Sing!"

Star Wars: The Clone Wars airs this Friday on Cartoon Network at 9:00pm (e/p)
