Getting frozen in carbonite might be one of the most memorable events that's happened to Han Solo (Harrison Ford) in the original Star Wars trilogy, but it looks like the Rebel smuggler isn't the only one that's gotten to have metal frozen over their body in Star Wars galaxy far, far away.
Marvel just recently relaunched a Star Wars comic book series exploring what happened between Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back and Star Wars: The Return of the Jedi, and in Star Wars #3, fans get to see another character suffering the same carbonite fate as Han.
In the comic (via CBR), fans get to see Leia (Carrie Fisher) on a secret mission to determine the decarbonisation process so that she can free Han from Jabba's clutches. However, the mission turns to a head when two stormtroopers discover Leia in the chamber where Han was frozen. Knocking Leia unconscious, the soldiers freeze her in carbonite.
It's a shocking reveal that shows Leia in a terrible moment of anguish. The stormtroopers soon mention that Leia will join the others, implying that there are more frozen in carbonite. It's obvious that Leia will manage to get out of the carbonite, however, we've yet to see how exactly it happens in the next issue of Marvel's Star Wars series.
Star Wars #3 by Jesus Saiz, Charles Soule, Arif Prianto, and Clayton Cowles is on sale now.
