Doodnik's Species
Dexter Jettster was not the first big, burly four-armed cook in Star Wars! Many years before Dexter appeared in Attack of the Clones, we were introduced to Doodnik in the 5th episode of Droids. Doodnik is the operator of Doodnik's Cafe, located on the dusty mining world of Tyne's Horky, and was even for a short time the master of everyone's favorite droid duo, R2-D2 and C-3PO. But just what kind of alien species is this grubby cook? His physique is certainly similar to that of Dexter Jettster, but when you compare their faces, I think it's a pretty big stretch to say that they are both Besalisks. To my knowledge, no one else quite like Doodnik has appeared in Star Wars since the man himself first appeared in 1985. But wouldn't it be cool to see another of Doodnik's kind in the Star Wars of today!
