YMMV / Jango Fett: Open Seasons

• Catharsis Factor: After the first three volumes show everything going downhill for Jango, culminating in him being sold into slavery, the fourth book shows him breaking out, suiting up, and leaving his code behind to go on a brutal Roaring Rampage of Revenge against Tor Vizsla, the man responsible for most of his suffering.
• Ensemble Dark Horse:
  • Jango's mother only fully appears in one page before being killed, but said page shows her blasting a Death Watch member's head off for using her son as a hostage.
  • Silas only appears in the second book, but is also quite fondly remembered for always sticking by Jango's side, and enduring most of Dooku's torture, to the point where the Sith is impressed.
• Iron Woobie: Jango. At age 8, he loses his home, parents, and sister to a terrorist group, and is forced to kill someone in self defense. 6 years later, he loses his adoptive father years later by a traitorous teammate, forcing him to lead the True Mandalorians at a very young age. 8 years into his leadership, he's helpless to do anything when the Jedi are tricked into wiping out his entire crew, and is then given up to the governor of Galidraan who sells him into slavery until he eventually breaks out 2 years later. Despite this, he maintains a determined and stoic demeanor throughout most of his life, which only breaks at some key points in his backstory.
• Memetic Badass: This comic is mostly remembered as the one in which Jango Fett killed three Jedi with his bare hands, and then beat another in a one-on-one combat. Granted, he had his Mandalorian gear to help him combat their force powers, but still...
• Memetic Loser: The Jedi who killed Myles and later got killed in a Duel to the Death by Jango. While the other Jedi were either caught unaware while they were fighting the other Mandalorians, he had his focus solely on Jango, and still got snow flung at his face, got his lightsaber knocked out of his hand, headbutted, and then strangled with a wire. In that order.
• Moral Event Horizon:
  • Tor Vizsla crosses it during his introductory scene when he kills Mr. and Mrs. Fett for having given food to a passing Jaster Mereel, his nemesis. As if that wasn't enough, he also abducts young Arla Fett.
  • Montross crosses it by deliberately abandoning his mentor Jaster Mereel to get killed by Vizsla (after the former saved his life) for implying that he was going to exile him for getting several Mandalorian enforcers killed with his recklessness, then leaving Jango and Myles to get mowed down as well for being potential witnesses.
  • If the governor of Galidraan didn't cross it by hiring Jango Fett and his Mandalorians to dispose of his rival political activists, he definitely does when he sells them out to Vizsla, washing his hands off the matter by calling the Jedi to arrest the Mandalorians for the murders. He also conspires to have Vizsla murder innocent women and children to sell the deception, because Jango didn't come across as chaotic enough.
• Tear Jerker:
  • Death Watch killing Jango's parents, kidnapping his sister, and setting his home on fire.
  • Jaster Mereel being betrayed by Montross and subsequently murdered by Vizsla, especially because it means that Jango has now lost another father figure. To make matters worse, the front cover of the second book shows Jango grieving over a dead Jaster's corpse. Despite having his helmet on for the entire event, we don't need to see his face to know that this boy is completely crushed.
  • Jango and Arla never see each other again. Though Arla learns Jango survived, she never tries to reach out to him, and as a result, Jango never finds out she's alive before he ends up dying too. The extra salt in the wound? In Imperial Commando: 501st, she makes a deal with Bardan to wipe her memory of her pain, and had the sequel come through, she would have gotten Identity Amnesia, which makes the possibility of Arla meeting Boba and his family very unlikely.
• The Woobie:
  • Jango's older sister Arla, who gets abducted by Death Watch after their parents are killed, and as seen in the Republic Commando Series, she develops Stockholm Syndrome.
  • Also Silas, whose conviction is Undying Loyalty, but is tortured by Dooku into giving out information on his best friend. His last request to Dooku before being executed is that the Sith never tells Jango about his dishonorable betrayal, which the fallen Jedi refuses to do anyways.
