Notes

This special yearbook edition was the only 100-page issue of the magazine aside from the Special/Miniseries issue, justifying its premium $9.99 price point.
The issue was timed to coincide with the conclusion of Season 2, which had been one of the most critically acclaimed seasons of the series.
Michelle Forbes' portrayal of Admiral Helena Cain in episodes "Pegasus" and "Resurrection Ship, Part I"/"Part II" had been a major storyline in the latter half of Season 2, making her a natural choice for a featured interview.
The 10-page season guide provided the most comprehensive episode coverage of any single issue of the magazine.
This yearbook format would not be repeated for subsequent seasons, making it a unique entry in the magazine's run.
Like all issues of The Official Battlestar Galactica Magazine, this publication featured full-color photography and production imagery.
