Marvel's Sergei Kravinoff is one one of the deadliest criminals and big game hunters in the Marvel Universe, going by the name Kraven the Hunter. In another galaxy, Jango Fett was one of the most notorious bounty hunters in the Star Wars universe, serving Count Dooku just before the dawn of the Clone Wars.

While they might exist in different fictional spaces, Kraven and Jango actually have a lot in common--beyond the fact that both of them are hunters. They both carry strong desires to leave behind a worthy legacy, as well. Just not in the way most people would think.

Kraven has long believed Spider-Man to be the most worthy prey and opponent in need of hunting, making himself a deadly and longtime adversary to the Webslinger. This conflict and Kraven's desire is only made stronger when Kraven believes in the curse that only the Spider can kill him. Over the course of his life, Kraven is finally ready to die, but first he needs two things: firstly, he needs to die in glorious combat at the Spider's hand (which proves difficult due to Spider-Man's refusal to kill, forcing Kraven to push Peter Parker to his limits.) Second, he needs to leave behind a legacy. This is where the stories of Kraven and Jango Fett truly meet at a crossroads, as Kraven builds his legacy upon the creation of clones. Using his genetic material, the High Evolutionary made 87 clones of the legendary hunter, which would grow an an accelerated rate, and were trained by Kraven himself in the Savage Land.

Likewise, in the Star Wars universe, Jango Fett was approached by Lord Tyranus on one of the moons of Bogden, seeking to hire Fett to be the genetic template for an entire army of clones to be used by the Republic against the droid armies of the Separatist Alliance. These clones were also grown at accelerated rate into rapid adulthood, and were trained by Fett who maintained a presence on the planet of Kamino, where the clones were made. However, the commonalities go even further, as the particular legacies left behind both go beyond their impressive clones. For Kraven, after he sent his clones to go out and become worthy of the Kraven name, only one returned. He had killed the other clones, deeming them to be unworthy. Gaining Kraven's pride and respect, this final clone became known as the Last Son of Kraven, and took on his father's mantle after Kraven's death in the recent "Hunted" storyline in the current Amazing Spider-Man run by Nick Spencer.

Similarly, Jango has a particular request beyond payment in credits for his genetic template. He required a clone for himself that was unaltered with no accelerated growth. He took this clone as his son, naming him Boba, who would grow up to continue his father's bounty hunting legacy as a Fett long after Jango's death in Attack of the Clones. What makes their connection interesting is not just that Kraven and Jango Fett are hunters, and it's not that they both had their legacies defined by having clones of them created. What makes them truly kindred spirts is that they both carried the desire to leave behind a singular and more personal legacy beyond that: the one that's left behind in one's child (however unconventional both of their methods were to have said child).
