Realm Press was a comic book company that published comic books based exclusively on the Original Series, spanning between 1998 CE through 2000 CE.

Following the end of the Maximum Press run, Realm Press began its own run of Battlestar Galactica comics, beginning with their Battlestar Galactica: Search for Sanctuary single issue special. Other one shots were subsequently published. Later, Realm introduced a monthly comic titled "Battlestar Galactica Season 3." This series only ran for three issues before it was canceled, and shortly thereafter Realm abandoned the entire franchise altogether.

Realm's foray was notable for its use of airbrushed art and its attempts to remain faithful to the look and feel of the Original Series, unlike its predecessor. Character likeness were altered in order to avoid legal likeness issues regarding performers.
