	=== Nods ===		=== Nods ===

			* The last page of this issue commemorates the memory of ''[[Battlestar Galactica (TOS)\|Battlestar Galactica]]''<nowiki/>'s creator [[Glen A. Larson]].
			* The Viper's control column with the firing button shows up here, a nod to the Original Series' continual close-up depiction of this particular set piece during battle sequences.

	* Tigh uses the word "old dogs" to describe himself when volunteering to pilot one of the reserve Vipers, instead of the proper term "[[daggit]]."		* Tigh uses the word "old dogs" to describe himself when volunteering to pilot one of the reserve Vipers, instead of the proper term "[[daggit]]." The issue recurs again when Tigh uses the term "dogfight" later in the issue.
			*Adama refers to the current situation as a "dark hour," when it should be "dark [[Centar\|centon]]."
			*The ships depicted in [[The Fleet (TOS-DE alternate)\|the rag-tag Fleet]] are more reminiscent of the Re-imagined Series' crafts, notably with the inclusion of ''[[Zephyr]]''.
			*The interiors of both the corridors and the launch bay are taken from their Re-imagined Series counterparts.
			*The Vipers show a coloration of the red stripes of [[Mark II Viper\|their Re-imagined counterparts]], instead of the Original Series' orange.
			*The only interiors depicted that mirror the Original Series' aesthetics are the [[Launch tube (TOS)\|launch tubes]] and [[core command]].
			*The depiction of the last Viper that Apollo boards in the launch bay is a hybridization of both the Original and Re-imagined Vipers, although in the next issue, the craft is more in line with the Original Series' depiction.

	== Analysis ==		== Analysis ==

	* As with previous issues written by [[Dan Abnett]], there are direct ties to the events of ''[[Galactica 1980]]'', including Apollo's death and Boxey's ascension as a Warrior. A majority of the comics published tend to eschew ''1980'', ignoring it in the way that creator [[Glen A. Larson]] had as "[[Starbuck (TOS)\|Starbuck]]'s bad dream."		* As with previous issues written by [[Dan Abnett]], there are direct ties to the events of ''[[Galactica 1980]]'', including [[Apollo (TOS-DE alternate)\|Apollo]]'s death and [[Boxey (TOS-DE alternate)\|Boxey]]'s ascension as a Warrior. A majority of the comics published tend to eschew ''1980'', ignoring it in the way that creator [[Glen A. Larson]] had as "[[Starbuck (TOS)\|Starbuck]]'s bad dream."
			*While Apollo's death in this issue is a definitive event, left vague was whether or not Apollo died en route to his star dive due to his head injury.
			*Interestingly, the Cylon side of the story is untold throughout this series, with all action being Colonial driven. In the course of other ''Battlestar'' stories, there is often an antagonist visibly leading the charge: be it an [[IL-series]] Cylon ([[Lucifer (TOS-DE alternate)\|Lucifer]], [[Abbadon]], et al.), [[Baltar (TOS-DE alternate)\|Baltar]], the [[Imperious Leader (TOS-DE alternate)\|Imperious Leader]] itself, or even [[Count]] [[Iblis (alternate)\|Iblis]]. This leads any nuanced motivations of the Cylons, outside of their desire to exterminate humanity, nebulous: namely why they recovered and kept Apollo alive. (Although it could be inferred that this was done to allow his rescue, so that the rescue party could lead the Cylons to the Fleet, as Apollo suspected at the [[Battlestar Galactica: Death of Apollo 5\|end of the previous issue]].)

	*The Cylons begin jamming all Colonial transmissions to prevent further coordination. Athena runs countermeasures while [[Countess]] [[Sephoni]] enters core command.

Athena runs countermeasures while [[Countess]] [[Sephoni]] enters core command. She informs Apollo of [[Psionic\|her divination]] of a weak point in the super basestar's shielding: a seam in the shielding overlap that would allow a precise [[fusion missile]] strike.
			*With the jamming up, this information cannot be shared to the Vipers already aloft, and so Apollo makes the decision to fly one of the reservist Vipers and carry the payload himself.
			*He orders the launch bay techs to prep his Viper with the needed ordnance, and launches. After remarking that he's not dead after the acceleration from the tube, Apollo makes a solemn promise to Athena (who cannot hear him) that he won't take any unnecessary risks.
			*After making his way through the Raider screens, the jamming is thwarted and Athena communicates the basestar's vulnerability to the fighters in action. Adama expresses his displeasure at Apollo's disobedience, while Starbuck is able to break free of the defense line and lend support to Apollo. With Starbuck's missile payload exhausted, he is forced into a subordinate position of supporting Apollo's attack run, despite expressing concerns about the g-forces aggravating Apollo's injury.
			*While Starbuck takes out four Raiders, Apollo makes his way to the target and launches the missile. The super basestar is destroyed and, while Apollo was not caught up in its explosion, his Viper is unable to course-correct from its direct flight-line into the nearby star.
			*His friends and family are helpless as Apollo's fate is sealed.
			*In ''Galactica''<nowiki/>'s [[Life science\|life sciences]] bay, the comatose [[Xam]] taps "GONE" repeatedly on the digital pad at his hand.
			*After the battle, Adama makes a speech before an assembly of ''Galactica''<nowiki/>'s crew, including [[Boxey (TOS-DE alternate)\|Boxey]] and [[Muffit (TOS-DE alternate)\|Muffit]], to commemorate the loss of Warriors before a monument to Apollo, consisting of a Warrior's helmet and a Viper model. He promises to find [[Earth (TOS-DE alternate)\|Earth]] "even if I must search every star in the heavens and live a ''thousand'' lives."
