− | Although it is clearly Captain Antilles who dies at the hands of Darth Vader in the film version of ''A New Hope'', the novelization names the man Vader kills "[[Colton, Captain|Captain Colton]]." For some time fans assumed that "Colton" was actually Captain Antilles' first name, but ''Revenge of the Sith'' reveals that Colton is an entirely different character and is Antilles' second-in-command. Therefore, although Colton's fate in the films is unknown, absent as he is from ''A New Hope'', in the novel he is killed by Vader, making it Antilles whose fate is unknown.
