	* Fifteen minutes prior to the end of the [[Battlestar Galactica 3\|third issue]], Commander [[William Adama\|Adama]] and Lieutenant [[Kara Thrace\|Thrace]] run into a wall of antebellum [[Cylon (RDM)\|Cylons]] [[Raider (RDM)\|Raider]]s. They prepare for an attack, although they are initially confused as to why they haven't attacked. Adama identifies the ships as pre-[[Cylon War]] [[Raider (RDM)\|Raider]]s. The leader of this phalanx, [[Fifteen Beta Three]], identifies their brigade as the [[Caprican Cylon Brigade]].		* Fifteen minutes prior to the end of the [[Battlestar Galactica 3\|third issue]], Commander [[William Adama\|Adama]] and Lieutenant [[Kara Thrace\|Thrace]] run into a wall of antebellum [[Cylon (RDM)\|Cylons]] [[Raider (RDM)\|Raider]]s.

	* Upon asking for their command, Thrace tells them to go [[frak]] themselves. They start self-destructing, a process which Adama halts despite Thrace's objections. After determining that they were ordered to protect the quadrant by their former commander 50 years, 4 months and 3 days ago (during the [[Third Colonial War]]), Adama informs the Cylons that their commander is dead and that he's the last surviving high-ranking Caprican military officer. They subsequently obey his commands.		* Upon asking for their command, Thrace tells them to go [[frak]] themselves.

	* The Caprican Cylon Brigade has been waiting for their commander for 53 years, 4 months, and 3 days, which closely fits in with the length of the [[Cylon War]] (12 years, 6 months) and the duration of the [[Armistice]] (40 years). Therefore the events of this comic take place 10 months after the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies]], although this overshoots [[Timeline - Season 2 (RDM)\|the timeline]] established by the episode "[[Pegasus (episode)\|Pegasus]]" by four months. Given that this comic was produced well before "[[Razor]]", which established the duration of the Cylon War, this level of near accuracy is rather remarkable.		* The Caprican Cylon Brigade has been waiting for their commander for 53 years, 4 months, and 3 days, which closely fits in with the length of the [[Cylon War]] (12 years, 6 months) and the duration of the [[Armistice]] (40 years).
