Note:

Jabba the Hutt was originally depicted as a yellow-skinned humanoid with white hair growing from his chin and cheeks. This was due to Jabba’s appearance not being final when the comic was released (in fact, not until the release of Return of the Jedi in 1983). The novel Star Wars: Kenobi by John Jackson Miller establishes that Mosep would sometimes travel under Jabba’s name, representing his interests, indicating that the Jabba from the Marvel comics may indeed have been Mosep.

Deathstick is the daughter of the Nightsister witch, Shelish. She grew up in the Outer Rim territories and began as a street criminal. She gained notoriety through highly public assassinations of gang leaders. Deathstick had a run-in with the Empire which cost her the majority of her face which is why she wears the mask. She first appeared in the Kabam mobile game, Star Wars: Uprising.

Shelish first appeared in a collection of short stories by George Mann called Myths & Fables.
