About

This is from the story's introduction in "Pegasus" #6, one which oddly makes no mention of its early reprint in "... Scum & Villainy".

After Pegasus III-V had printed a series of stories by Judi L. Hendricks based on her character, Cori Beckett, ("Assault on Log'aria", "Marketable Commodity", & "Satisfaction Guaranteed") we received a great deal of mail requesting the initial story, wherein Cori first runs into fellow Corellian, Han Solo (or visa versa). Well, this being our last issue, what better way to answer all those requests than by granting them? What follows is not the end of Cori Beckett, but the beginning....

Reactions and Reviews

Cori Beckett is a teenager when she meets Han in Judi Hendricks' "Stowaway" (SV) . Personal slave to a particularly revolting individual with whom Han has business, she has a low opinion of Han also, but he does have a ship on which she can escape. Her first attempt fails painfully; the second time she manages to reach the FALCON—not knowing Chewbacca had seen her and that Han and Chewie were deliberately ignoring her presence until they were well away. Already trained as a pilot, she makes a bargain with Han: he'll buy her a ship and give her more training as a pilot and smuggler, and she'll pay him back as soon as possible.[1]
