Dynamite Entertainment

Following entry into a mysterious black hole, Cassiopeia oversees the care of Adama while, unbeknownst to her and Salik, Iblis warps Adama's mind (^{(Comics: Classic Battlestar Galactica Vol. 3 #1)} & ^{(Comics: Classic Battlestar Galactica Vol. 3 #4)}).

Marvel Comics

Cassiopeia is a socialator who escapes to the safety of the rag-tag fugitive fleet aboard the freighter Gemini, her arm having been broken sometime during the incident. Familiar with the Gemenon language, she translates for an elderly Gemonesse woman who asks Apollo, Starbuck and Boomer for help with her ailing husband. Apollo orders Starbuck to bring both the elderly man and Cassiopeia to Galactica's life station, particularly Cassiopeia after it becomes clear that she is in danger from a mob of Otori Sect women.

Starbuck and Cassiopeia flirt with one another aboard the returning shuttle, with Cassiopeia suggesting that he "make an appointment" with her after Starbuck admits to having headaches and needing "some kind of release" (^{(Comics: Exodus!)}).

Cassiopeia later becomes a nurse, assisting Dr. Wilker while Adama is connected to the memory inducer (^{(Comics: All Things Past and Present)}).

Maximum Press

Twenty yahrens after the events of the Original Series, it is eventually revealed that Cassiopeia died on a mission lead by Starbuck.

Prior to this, when Starbuck is believed to be lost in a battle with Eastern Alliance Destroyers, Cassiopeia visits Chameleon and expresses regret that she failed to tell Starbuck her true feelings (Starbuck #2).

Realm Press

Cassiopeia is a former socialator who has become a respected med-tech within the Fleet. She has a complicated romantic history with Starbuck, which often brings her into conflict with Athena.

Biography

Cassiopeia is present in the med-lab when Commander Adama is brought in after collapsing on the bridge from a Somnian attack. She assists Dr. Salik in assessing Adama's condition, noting the unusual brain activity (^{(Comics: Prison of Souls, Part 1)}).

Following Athena's date with Starbuck, Cassiopeia arrives on Galactica's bridge spoiling for a fight. The confrontation escalates, and Cassiopeia slaps Athena before Colonel Tigh intervenes (^{(Comics: Hades Hath No Fury)}).
