It’s the anniversary of the destruction of the twelve
colonies and as usual Commander Adama wakes from the nightmare of that day and
what he has loss personally. As the ceremony is going on, several Basestars
appear and attack the fleet. The warriors man their vipers and put up a valiant
fight, but are overwhelmed. It was then that Doctor Zee request permission to
use the vipers he’s redesigned using weapons that are outlawed. With no other
choice, Adama reluctantly agrees and assigns Starbuck and Apollo to the new
ships. When the Galactica suffers a critical hit, things really go from bad to
worse!
I’m a fan of classic BSG and enjoy the work of Abnett and
Landing. So needless to say I’ve been waiting for this book to come out.
Totally worth the wait! The series apparently bridges the first and second
season (later known as GALACTICA 1980). Not too familiar with Cezar Razek, but
his art is great. I love the design of the experimental vipers and he handles
the action well. This book is worth it if you are a fan.
BATTLESTAR GALACTICA #1 is stores now or available for
ordering at www.Dynamite.com.
