In a prelude to the series released earlier this year, we learned that after leaving Bespin with Han Solo's carbonite-encased body, bound for Jabba the Hutt on Tatooine, Boba Fett ran into a little bit of trouble. Someone stole Solo out from under him, sending him on a search to get the smuggler's body back before Jabba started asking questions.
War of the Bounty Hunters #1 picks up on Boba mid-search, just as he realizes there's another problem to deal with: Someone's put a contract out on his head, and it's open to every hunter in the galaxy.
As Fett deals with an onslaught of bounty hunters, some of whom he thought were his friends, the book begins cutting back and forth between his adventures and a mysterious hooded figure who's just obtained Solo's carbonite form. This hooded figure, it seems, has orchestrated the contract for Fett's life, and is also using Solo's body as a bargaining chip to set a meeting with not just Jabba, but all of the major Hutt crime lords in the galaxy.
