Colby, later known as Cad Bane, is a major antagonist in the Star Wars franchise. He is a Duros bounty hunter who rose during the Clone Wars, working for the highest bidder and earning a reputation as the galaxy's best and most fearsome mercenary — a title that he was able to claim after fellow bounty hunter and mentor Jango Fett perished in the opening battle of the war. He is also the archenemy of Fett's cloned son Boba Fett, to whom he served as a mentor in his years of training.

Bane was hired to break the Republic captive Ziro Desilijic Tiure out of prison in the galactic capital of Coruscant. The Duros assembled a team of hunters and captured members of the Galactic Senate in their headquarters on Coruscant, forcing Supreme Chancellor Palpatine to free Ziro.

He was voiced by Corey Burton, who also voiced Count Dooku and Ziro the Hutt in the same series, as well as Brainiac and Toyman in the DC Animated Universe, Quint in Timon & Pumbaa, Scarecrow in Batman: Gotham Knight, Megatron and Shockwave in Transformers: Animated, Captain Hook, Judge Claude Frollo, Shan Yu in Kingdom Hearts, and Zeus in God of War II and God of War III. In The Book of Boba Fett, he was portrayed by stuntman Dorian Kingi, who also portrayed Frank Weaver as a Wendigo in Antlers, with Burton reprising his vocal role. As a child, he was voiced by A.J. LoCascio, who also voiced Lotor in Voltron: Legendary Defender.

Biography[]

Born on the planet Duro, Colby grew up as an orphan and street rat on an anonymous planet with his best friend, Niro. The two young Duros struggled to survive on the streets, despised by the populace and barely finding enough to eat. One day, a criminal named Lazlo took an interest in the two young people and offered them a better life in exchange for a favor for him. One night, Colby and Niro created a diversion so that Lazlo's gang could attack the secret Corner Shop casino. Unfortunately, during the escape, Niro was captured by the authorities while Colby escaped with the gang.

Years later, now a young adult, Colby, having taken the name Cad Bane, remained an active member of Lazlo's gang until Lazlo was killed by a marshal. Wanting to avenge his mentor, Bane met Niro again, but his former best friend had become a member of the city's police force, causing the two to be on opposite paths. Bane managed to kill the marshal, but was subsequently arrested and sent to prison.

Years later, Bane was released from Torano on a charge of misconduct and returned to his old city, intent on settling scores with both Niro and Arin, his former lover who had facilitated his arrest. Meeting two of Lazlo's thugs, Vak Lako and Tay Grutty, Bane learned that his former lover married Niro. Confronting Niro, Bane learned that Arin had died two years earlier. Lako and Grutty took out Niro's police droids, but got killed in the process. A blaster duel ensued between the two best friends, and Bane fatally shot Niro in cold blood. With Niro's dying breath, Bane realized that Niro's adopted son, Isaac, was both Arin's and his own. Despite the blood bond, Bane chose not to take Isaac with him, thus leaving the city where it all began and where it all ended.

CadBane-TCW

Cad Bane in The Clone Wars.

During the Clone Wars, Bane was hired by Jabba the Hutt, alongside Aurra Sing, Robonino, Shahan Alama, HELIOS-3D, HELIOS-3E, and another IG-86 sentinel droid to break Ziro the Hutt out of prison as he contained dangerous information to the Hutt council. After tracing Ziro's location, Bane took fellow bounty hunters Shahan Alama and Robonino to raid the Galactic Senate on Coruscant, planning to take senators hostage to force Supreme Chancellor Palpatine to release Ziro the Hutt, Jabba's uncle. After Bane, Alama, a sentinel droid, and two droid commandos landed at the Senate Building in an airspeeder, a squad of Senate Commandos — a branch of the guards of the Senate — confronted the approaching Bane. The Duros commented on their hastiness, and before the guards could arrest Bane, one bounty hunter used a sniper rifle to kill most of the guards from a long-range post. Bane personally eliminated the captain of the guards by tackling him and snapping his neck.

The Duros signaled to Robonino, and the other hunters that the coast was clear, and the bounty hunters arrived at the building with several more sentinel droids. Leaving the droid commandos outside to clear the platform and stand guard, the team entered the headquarters of the Senate. After eliminating the Senate Commando posted at the building's power control room, as well as several droids inside, Bane left Robonino to shut off the power before heading for the atrium with the rest of his team. Along the way, the Duros eliminated two patrols of guards by tossing a primed thermal detonator into their barracks when both shifts were assembled there.

Entering the Republic Executive Building, Bane caught the attention of the senators discussing a piece of Senate legislation by firing several blaster shots. The bounty hunters surrounded the senators, and when Senator Philo objected to being taken hostage — walking away while refusing to "listen to insolence" — Bane shot him in the back. The Duros ordered the senators to turn over their communication devices and contacted Chancellor Palpatine in his office via a holo-transmission. Bane stated that the hostages were to be freed if Ziro the Hutt were to be released from prison.

After Palpatine objected, Robonino shut off the power, trapping Palpatine and Senator Orn Free Taa in the office and sealing all external communications. As the bounty hunters collected the senators' transmission devices, Bane runs into Senator Padmé Amidala. While speaking with her, Bane noticed Amidala glance at something behind him, and the bounty hunter turned around and recognized Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker surveying them from an upper-level window. Bane fired at the man, and Skywalker fled, prompting the bounty hunter to order Alama and an IG-86 sentinel droid after the Jedi.

Alama returned without the droid and reported that while it had been destroyed by Skywalker, an examination of the droid's remains showed that the Jedi Knight did not have his lightsaber. Bane dispatched Aurra Sing with Alama to find and bring the Jedi back to him. The Duros contacted Palpatine once more and told the Chancellor to make a pardon disc and give it to Senator Taa, who would be picked up by Bane's airspeeder and taken to deliver the disc to the prison. Taa reluctantly obeyed, and the sentinel droid 3D took the senator to the Detention Center.

Sing and Alama returned with Robonino and an unconscious, handcuffed Skywalker, and the Duros taunted the knocked-out Jedi Knight before ordering him to be tossed in with the rest of the hostages. Meanwhile, 3D collected the Hutt and returned to the Senate Building, while Taa stayed at the prison in the safety of the Coruscant Guard's clone troopers. Preparing to leave, Bane ordered the rest of his team to set up their "parting gifts" around the senators — a laser web that would activate explosives upon the slightest touch. Wishing the senators and Jedi a "most respectful farewell", Bane left the building with his comrades.

Upon the team's arrival outside on the landing platform, two LAAT/I gunships landed, and clone troopers of the Coruscant Guard piled out and cornered the group of bounty hunters. Palpatine contacted Bane and ordered him to surrender, but the Duros informed the Chancellor of the trapped senators, and Palpatine reluctantly relinquished his attempts to apprehend the bounty hunter.

Bane's airspeeder arrived, driven by 3D and hauling Ziro in a rear transport, and with the lives of the senators still at risk, the Coruscant Guard allowed the team of mercenaries to escape. After they were a safe distance away, Bane remotely activated the explosives as payback for the indignities Ziro had suffered in prison. Skywalker, in the meantime, had recovered and began to cut a hole in the floor around himself and the senators. Just as the explosives went off, the Jedi and the senators dropped into the room below. As Ziro congratulated Bane on a "job well done," Bane demanded his pay from the Hutt, as he did not work for free.

After freeing Ziro, Bane ordered his comrades to go into hiding, but all were captured except Shahan Alama, who was killed during a crash on Florrum, and Cad Bane himself. Later, Bane and his droid Todo 360 hunted for Ziro, who had escaped from the Hutts with help from his girlfriend Sy Snootles, unaware that two Jedi, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Quinlan Vos had also been hunting for Ziro. But by the time both groups reached Teth, where Ziro's father was buried, Ziro had already been murdered by Snootles, who was used by Jabba to collect a holodiary exposing the Hutt crime families' crimes. Cad Bane stole Vos' lightsaber and fought Kenobi. Bane defeated Kenobi but was rescued by Vos while Bane escaped with Todo 360.

Later, Bane was hired by Darth Sidious to steal a Jedi Holocron which contained all the names of future Jedi children. As part of his plan, Bane murdered the Jedi Ord Enisence and enlisted the help of fellow bounty hunter Cato Parasitti, who would use her shape-shifting abilities to pose as Enisence to infiltrate the Jedi Temple on Coruscant and his droid Todo 360.

After that, Parasitti, in the form of Enisence, infiltrated the Jedi Temple and hacked into the computer systems to aid Bane and Todo as they traversed through the ventilation shaft. Parasitti also used a comlink to keep in touch with Bane and taught him how to bypass the laser tripwire security systems. After Bane and Todo reached the Holocron chamber, Bane easily stole the Holocron while Todo deactivated the remaining security lasers.

Bane ordered Todo to make his way to the Jedi communication center to divert the Jedi's attention, but he hid the reason for the order, which, unknown to Todo, had an explosive attached to him. Meanwhile, Bane lost contact with Parasitti, who was defeated and captured by Anakin's Padawan, Ahsoka Tano. Bane quickly took the Holocron and escaped, leaving Parasitti to be imprisoned and Todo being destroyed by the explosive attached to him.

Later, Cad Bane is hired by Count Dooku to infiltrate a Republic prison to free Moralo Eval. Bane grows suspicious of a bounty hunter named Rako Hardeen, who is actually Obi-Wan disguised to gain Eval's trust and uncover Dooku's plans. Following a successful prison break, the trio are pursued by Anakin and Ahsoka before finally reaching Serenno. Bane, Hardeen and a group of the galaxy's best bounty hunters participate in a tournament to complete an obstacle course called "The Box" for a part in a Separatist plot to kidnap Supreme Chancellor Palpatine. After the tournament, Bane supplants Eval as the leader of the operation and the surviving bounty hunters kidnap Palpatine on Naboo during the Festival of Lights. However, Obi-Wan's deception as Hardeen is revealed and he manages to foil the plot, leading to Bane's re-apprehension.

CadBane TheBadBatch-render

Cad Bane in The Bad Batch.

At the start of the rise of the Galactic Empire, a still-active Cad Bane is hired by Lama Su to retrieve Omega, a pure young female clone of Jango Fett who fled with a section of renegade clones named Clone Force 99. The bounty hunter tracks his target to Bracca where he easily slaughters clone troopers before infiltrating the ship they were ambushing. Omega and Hunter then arrive on the scene and find the corpses of the clones while being confronted by Bane who brags about the number of clones he has taken down in his career. Hunter asks him who hired him but Bane describes the information as confidential before demanding that Omega be handed over to him. At a dead-end, he and Hunter prepare their blasters and it is Bane who turns out to be the fastest, shooting Hunter down in the chest. Omega attempts to defend herself with her Zygerrian bow just for Todo to disarm her and Bane to capture her after knocking her out with a crippling shot.

Directed to the abandoned Bora Vio facility by his employer to make the exchange, Bane ordered Todo to keep an eye on their prisoner throughout the journey, but upon arriving, he discovered a disabled Todo and a fleeing Omega. Bane managed to capture her again while destroying the comm device she had hidden on her. The girl’s refusal to comply puts Bane on edge just as the two discover Taun We’s body on the floor. The assassin shows up, turning out to be rookie bounty hunter Fennec Shand, whom Bane is not happy to see as she gets in the way of his bounty. An exchange of gunfire ensues and the credit crate Taun had on her falls into the void, much to Bane's anger.

Omega is once again on the run, Bane tracks her down in the facility before being confronted again with Fennec and this time starting a hand-to-hand fight where although the young woman proves to be a formidable opponent, the veteran bounty hunter Gets the upper hand and briefly knocks out Fennec but she recovers quickly and successively tied up Bane and pushed him off the balcony. Bane stops his fall by using rockets from his boots. Sadly, Omega is saved by Clone Force 99 while Fennec sabotages Bane's ship, pinning it on the abandoned station much to his frustration.

As a class-one bounty hunter, Bane is repeatedly hired to capture M-Count targets for the Galactic Empire. On one such mission, Bane and Todo travel to the planet Caraad to capture a force-sensitive infant named Bayrn after being tipped off by an informant. They easily incapacitate Bayrn's mother and deliver the captive infant to Dr. Emerie Karr and Commander Scorch at the Imperial Orbital Space Station.

CadBane BoBF

Cad Bane in The Book of Boba Fett.

Many years later after the fall of the Empire, Bane enters the employ of the Pyke Syndicate. He arrives on Tatooine and urges Cobb Vanth to stay out of the coming conflict, offering to match Boba Fett's price. This then becomes a threatening warning, and a showdown ensues. His deputy tries to shoot Bane, getting himself killed and Vanth shot and critically wounded. Bane announced that Tatooine is now under the control of the Pykes and the people would be left alone as long as the spice kept running right before he left.

During the Battle for Mos Espa, Bane revealed the truth to Fett - that it had been the Pykes who had murdered his Tusken family, not the speeder bike gang. The two later had a brief duel which saw Fett lying on the ground and Bane standing over him, pointing a blaster at his head and stating that to do anything other than look out for one's self was a weakness. Before Bane could deliver the coup de grâce, Fett knocked his blaster away with his gaderffii stick. Knocking Bane to the ground, Fett killed the Duros bounty hunter by stabbing him with the stick. However, as Fett walked away, the heart monitor in Bane's chest started beeping, indicating that Bane might not be dead yet.

Appearance[]

Cad Bane is a tall, slender, and muscular Duros man. Although quite aged, he carries himself in a well composed manner complimented by his long held excellent shape for combat.

In terms of anatomy, Bane bears the dark blue reptilian textured skin common for his species. He also has massive piercing red eyes, black lips, and razor sharp teeth. Although likewise all common for his species, such features nonetheless supplement his notably constant scowl thus heavily indicating his sinister personality.

Personality[]

Cad Bane is a textbook example of a sociopath: utterly ruthless, frigid cold-hearted, and nigh-inhumanly cruel, killing without remorse and taking pleasure in others' suffering. He will happily dispose of innocent bystanders and even his allies to finish off his quarry. Bane is also very wrathful and manipulative, willing to use any means necessary to get someone to do whatever he wants, such as shocking Jedi Master Bolla Repal at full power to get him to open the Holocron.

There is no task too harsh or sickening for Cad Bane to sink into doing, even abducting Force-sensitive children and giving them to Darth Sidious, who would have both physically and psychologically tortured them into being apprentices who were as heartless as himself.

Although he usually has a lot of control over his composure given his notable lack of tender emotions and acts in a reserved manner, he can sometimes break out into evil laughter and have a few hammy moments. He also exhibits vanity, killing just to get a replacement hat. Bane has a very sarcastic, dry sense of humor, as well as a condescending attitude. He treats his clients with little to no respect, even patronizingly referring to those younger than him as "son" or "little lady".

Decades later, Cad Bane is significantly more ruthless, menacing and less prone to humor. He coldly warns Cobb Vanth to cease interfering with Pyke operations. He is shown to be unnecessarily brutal in his killings, shooting Vanth’s deputy several times even after he is already dead. Arguably Bane's only redeeming trait is that he respects people he considers to be skilled and intelligent, as he rescues Obi-Wan Kenobi while disguised as Rako Hardeen while competing in the Box, as he developed a begrudging respect for him. Bane also hates those who refuse to kill their targets personally, saying that if someone were to earn his respect, they would "do it face to face". He demonstrates this by taunting Moralo Eval after trying to kill Obi-Wan through traps, mocking Eval for his cowardice by saying if he wanted to kill Obi-Wan, he should "do it like a man".

While Bane did take in and mentor a young Boba Fett, he was a cold, harsh and abusive guardian who gave Boba little to no affection. Bane did once reflect that Boba reminded him of himself when he was younger, which suggests that Bane did have a degree of fondness for the boy. However, what little care Bane mind have had for Boba has all but disappeared by the time they reunited.

Bane is known to not let go of grudges, holding vendettas against Fett and Shand decades after he last saw them. He mocks Fett, who was his former student, for his rusting skills, age, and the deaths of the Tusken Raiders he'd befriended.

Cad also shows traits of thrill-seeking, as he enjoys doing dangerous tasks, even if his life is at risk. When Boba is at his mercy, Bane shows no fear, and instead shows pride in Boba for wanting to kill him. However, this could have just been sarcasm as well. Nevertheless, Bane shows a considerable lack of fear, to the point where he even sarcastically mocks Darth Sidious for hiring Bane to kidnap Force-sensitive children, despite the Sith Lord's extremely cruel and sadistic nature. In Bane's younger years, he's shown fear when he is completely helpless, like when he's almost sucked into the fan at the Jedi Temple or when Obi-Wan, Anakin Skywalker and Mace Windu attempt to use a group Jedi mind trick on him. Even then, Bane regains his composure immediately, and by the time of Boba's rise to power, Bane has lost all fear of death and even embraces it.

Despite his cruelty and coldness, Bane hadn't always been like this, having been a child who had to survive in the underworld with the person he considered a brother, when he was just Colby. Unlike Niro, Colby wasn't afraid to take risks and was a bit more ambitious. He felt pain that he hadn't been able to save Niro from the police, but the years spent as a member of Lazlo's gang would eventually harden his heart permanently.

Powers and Abilities[]

  • Superior Marksmanship: Bane was a master marksman, utilizing duel blasters as his preferred weapons. He was so skilled that he beat Hunter in a duel and countless others, and had a quick draw he retained into his seventies. He also proved to be more skilled than Boba Fett, outdrawing him even though Fett had his rifle in his hand, while Bane's pistol was still in its holster. Even at old age, Bane was still extremely skilled and fast, besting both Cobb Vanth (and his deputy) and Boba Fett in their duels.
  • Master Combatant: Bane was a highly skilled bounty hunter who specialized in fighting Jedi. During the Clone Wars, Bane fought some of the most skilled Jedi, including Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker. He also fought Fennec Shand and held his own in a fight.

  • Expert tactician: Bane proved himself a competent leader and tactician, leading several different groups of bounty hunters on multiple occasions.

Equipment[]

  • Gauntlets: Bane wore specialize gauntlets that were similar to Mandalorian vambraces to combat Jedi. His gauntlets included stunners, flamethrowers, a wrist comm; wrist mounted comlink, and much more. On one occasion he had a battle droid transfer all controls of a Separatist ship to his gauntlet which he manage to activate the gravity well on the inside. His gauntlets could also call for his starships, activate his rocket boots, and a remote detonator to remotely detonate explosives. His new pair of gauntlets had similar functions but his left gauntlet had a knockout gas dispenser and his right gauntlet had a whipcord launcher/cable launcher that could ensnare targets.
  • LL-30 blaster pistols: Bane's primary blasters were LL-30s. These pistols were fitted with scopes and had a slim barrel design. When he broke out of prison he obtain a new LL-30 along with a carbine but later returned to a dual blaster pistols.
  • Additional Weapons: Bane had a habit of having spare weapons around him like rocket boots, breathing tubes, thermal detonators, and bolas which he used during his fight against Vos and Kenobi, managing to immobilize Vos. In the Legend community, Bane also had spare weapons like a smaller hold-out blaster pistol and a handmade carbine that fires cortosis projectiles. These bullet, upon striking a lightsaber blade, would cause the blade to short out. However, Bane stated that the bullets were expensive and hard on the slugthrower's barrel.
    • Rocket Boots: Bane often wore a pair of rocket boots.
    • Breathing Tubes: Bane also wore removable breathing tubes to counteract Force choke.
    • GALAAR-15 Blaster Carbine: After breaking out of the Republic prison, Bane obtain an GALAAR-15 blaster carbine along with a new LL-30 pistol. The carbine was in a holster on his back.
  • M-Count Scanner: Operating as a class-one bounty hunter, Bane was given a small scanner device that detects the midi-chlorian level in a person. This is done by taking a blood sample of a person and putting it in the device. By doing this the device scans the blood sample and if it flashes green than the person has a high M-count.

Trivia[]

  • Cad Bane's character draws inspiration from Lee Van Cleef's character Angel Eyes from The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly.
    • Similar to one of Cleef's characters Frank Talby from Day of Anger, who trains a young boy who later goes against him.
  • Cad Bane was born in 62 BBY and died in 9 ABY, making him 71 years old at the time of his death.
  • Cad Bane was originally set to appear in an unused Clone Wars arc set on Tatooine teaming up with Boba Fett on a "rescue mission" on Tatooine where Tusken Raiders had kidnapped a child. Two unfinished scenes of this arc were shown, one of them showing the two in a standoff which ended with Boba and Bane shooting each other in the head, explaining the iconic dent on Boba's helmet and why Bane has a metal plate implanted in his head in later appearances. This unfinished episode and other scenes are considered canon.
    • A 2025 clip revealed another unfinished clip of Bane leaving Boba Fett and Anakin Skywalker to fight.
  • After being killed by Boba, a beat can be heard near Cad Bane's heart, suggesting he may be still alive.
  • Cad Bane's 3-episode arc in Tales of the Underworld is similar to Darth Vader.
    • Bane's first episode shows Bane as a young boy on his homeworld, where he grew up as a street rat and just had his friend Niro. The two boys meet a Duros criminal named Lazlo, who later became Bane's mentor like Qui-Gon Jinn did with Bane.
    • The second episode showed Bane as a young adult when he returned to avenge Lazlo's death by killing the marshal, similar to how Anakin killed a Tusken tribe after they killed his mother Shmi. Bane also had a girlfriend named Arin who begss Bane to give up his life of crime, like how Padme attempted to Anakin in Episode III but Arin didn't tell Bane that she had his child.
    • In third and last episode, Bane returns after being released on a technicality. Bane learns from Tay Grutty that Arin married Niro, similar to how Palpatine had seeds of doubts of Padme and Obi-Wan to Anakin although Palptaine lied to Anakin and Tay only heard rummors of it because Arin needed help raising Issac, Bane's son.
