Jude Law's Skeleton Crew character alias features an Easter egg that goes all the way back to a forgotten 1977 Star Wars comic

Jude Law in Skeleton Crew.

In Skeleton Crew episode 3, we learn that Jude Law's mysterious Star Wars character, named Jod, also goes by the alias Crimson Jack. As it turns out, that's a name with a long history in the galaxy far, far away.

In fact, as StarWars.com points out in a trivia breakdown of episode 3, it was first used in a Marvel Star Wars comic from 1977. "A more modern version of Crimson Jack has appeared in recent comics, who bears no resemblance to Jod, indicating Jod has a habit of not being who he says he is," the site adds.
