Yeah I saw this last week but I didn't know how to categorize this; I mean the comic's name is just "Battlestar Galactica"? NOTE: the writers of the comic talked with RDM. I don't think that makes it canonical, but it should be fairly in keeping with the theme of the series without getting outlandish, like other comic book versions of Trek and Wars.--The Merovingian (C - E)

Rofl the cover art looks great. Baltar looks totally kick ass! --Mercifull 04:12, 8 April 2006 (CDT)

I have to dig around to find the original interview, but I can assure you that Kuralyov's summary is correct, I read the same interview article and that's exactly what it said. --The Merovingian (C - E) 18:50, 14 April 2006 (CDT)

There's actually at least two covers. I have a second with Six on the cover, but same content.
I'm for creating a comic continuity for these, noting that the events are based on the RDM continuity but are of a different continuity. This prevents us from mixing what contradictions or "non-events" occur between the shows. Obviously if a major character of the past reappeared, our characters should have been gravely affected, but then, the TV continuity character may not. They have a place, but we need to make a distinction. --Spencerian 13:36, 3 June 2006 (CDT)
So does this mean we would need separate pages for Zak Adama and Timeline (RDM) to include comics continuity information? Would separate sections within the main page be enough? --Peter Farago 14:56, 3 June 2006 (CDT)
I think that making separate subsections in an article is a mistake, as is making a separate timeline. It's a comic book. STar trek has dozens and Memory Alpha does not include such info outside of the comic book article. We don't need to include them into our projects when their canonicity is dubious: we don't include info from the video game. --The Merovingian (C - E)
