The Death Star is a fictional mobile space station and galactic superweapon featured in the Star Wars space-opera franchise. After several months training, he was assigned as first mate on the Imperial starship Rand Ecliptic, with an old enemy named Derek Klivian (nicknamed Hobbie) as second mate.

In the Wraith Squadron Series he was the first to implement the saying "Yub Yub Commander." In the radio version, Kale Browne provided the voice of Biggs. He came back to visit Tatooine to tell his friends and family of his new assignment but only tells Luke and his family of his hope to join the Rebel Alliance. In the non-canonical Legends literature and the Rogue Squadron video game series, it is said Hobbie is not only the most reckless pilot, he's also the luckiest, having crashed more fighters than all of Rogue Squadron and coming away from each of them unscathed. Later on during a brewing civil war within the Republic, the squadron would temporarily be led by Jaina Solo. He is the leader of Rogue Squadron during the battle of Yavin 4 in A New Hope (played by Drewe Henley). During the events of A New Hope, Biggs is planning a mutiny of the Rand Ecliptic, not realizing that several mutinies are being planned by several different groups.

Already a leader of the Rebels, Commander Luke Skywalker, though not a Jedi, has all the abilities of one. Biggs had a larger role in earlier drafts of the script for the movie and several of the additional scenes appeared in the novelization. He has also been occasionally parodied in popular media, most notably in the Family Guy Star Wars spoof Blue Harvest, in which he is depicted as being too fat to fit in his fighter and crashes. Celchu never appears by name in the original film series, although he is attributed as the A-wing pilot that acts as a decoy for Lando Calrissian during the attack run on the second Death Star. This is a very rare accomplishment, and one that is matched by longtime wingman and friend Wedge Antillies. 2017-12-18 12:48 pm.
