Koong (general)


Koong, a military leader in the Imperial era, is known for his actions against the droid XR. Furthermore, he orchestrated a scheme to apprehend Jann Tosh, R2-D2, C-3PO, and Dr. Akary Smith. His plan involved personally overseeing their arrival at the station following XR's capture, but R2 thwarted this by using a mirror to reflect XR's blaster fire, leading to XR's destruction immediately after the transmission.

Behind the scenes

The comic strip Sabotaged Droid from MyComyc featured Koong as its primary villain. Despite sharing a name with Bisad Koong, his visual design differed considerably. Rich Hadley, in his StarWars.com Blog post Droids and Ewoks return: Spain's lost Star Wars strips, suggested that this Koong was likely conceived as a distinct character, as he held the rank of General, unlike the Governor title held by Bisad Koong.
