History

Wanted himself, he tends bar in a seedy Blue Crow establishment and holes up on Callisto to keep clear of hunters. He reasons the spot is secure, since even local police drop in without ever bothering to search for wanted faces. When Jet Black steps inside and reacts to Big Shot playing on the television, the bartender pegs him as a fugitive and reassures him he is safe there, brushing aside Jet's insistence that he is no outlaw. The scene plays out in Jupiter Jazz (Part 1).
