One more thing: Bigs was better known as Biggs Darklighter, who shipped out on
the Rand Eliptic in the first Star Wars book. There was a conversation before
Biggs left between Luke and Biggs in the book and Marvel's comic book version.
As you have probably read earlier, Biggs bit it on the attack on the Death Star
in A New Hope(Star Wars). Biggs and Wedge were Luke's wingmen when Luke was
trying for the thermal exhaust port. Wedge was hit, but merely lost an engine
ad pulled out. Biggs was hit and transformed into tiny bits.

P.S. I hear Wedge was around in ROTJ, but how could this be? I thought he was
Luke's gunner in his snowspeeder, who was killed when Luke's speeder was shot
down in the attack on the 'walkers'. If this is so, then Wedge was slightly
crushed.
