The ep 4-6 one was Boba Fett.

OK ok, excuse me Star Wars fans. It was meant to be an "a" and not an "o" and I apologize.

Better to say "Baba" Fett than "Bobo."

"Baba" Fett makes it sound like a little 2 year old bounty hunter...

That's what I'll name the character! To skip all the lawsuit issues, I'll just name him "Baba" and leave it at that.

How does that sound? Won't you be terrified if you're being hunted down by the ruthless bounty hunter Baba?

Use him to hunt down Michael Jackson. Oh, wait... MJ'd probably be Baba's nemesis!

So... MJ the kidnapper faces off against Baba, the good guy turned rogue by a terrible event in his life... I don't know, Baba sounds too much like that damned pig

The second one reminds me a little bit of Oedipus. That might be something to think about.

As far as cliche goes...the idea sounds cliche, but, if you go really indepth with it, as in major political intregue, that would make me want to read it much more. Both ideas sound really interesting, and I'd love to read anything that comes from it, espeically if it's political intregue...I like political intregue...if you hand't noticed.
