During the time of the Imperial Era, the Gatto Gang, a trio of lawbreakers, found themselves in debt to Duke Blazor, who was associated with the Black Sun criminal organization. As a result, Blazor engaged the services of the bounty hunter IG-88 to apprehend the gang and deliver them to him. The hunter proved successful, locating and capturing the Gatto Gang on a rocky astronomical object. Sometime between the years of 34 ABY and 35 ABY, the monster droid CR-8R shared the story of IG-88's successful capture with Emil Graf, the cartographer.
The anthology comic-book series Star Wars Adventures included the story "Tales from Wild Space: IG-88 vs. the Gatto Gang," in issue 9, which mentioned Blazor. Nick Brokenshire penned the story, and IDW Publishing released it to the public on April 18, 2018.
