Celebrating the 35th anniversary of the original Battlestar Galactica TV series, by the industry's premiere cosmic writers, Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning (Legion, Nova, Guardians of the Galaxy)! After a brutal Cylon attack, Apollo and Starbuck are lost in time and space, and the Battlestar Galactica has been erased from existence! In a reality without the Galactica... the Cylon's [sic] rule supreme! How will the legendary Viper pilots get back?

Notes

Publication Releases

• A version of this issue, the Battlestar Galactica #2 Exclusive Subscription Variant, released in June 2013. Per the publisher:

  For comic fans that reserve a copy ahead of time with their comic shop, you can receive an exclusive Chris Eliopoulos Cute Exclusive cover! Only available for comic shop subscribers, this super-special variant is limited to initial orders!

  • Note: Dynamite Entertainment's website features the wrong cover image, repeating Issue #1's "cute cover" instead of Issue #2's (see below).

• Only 25 copies of a "High-End 'Photo' Ultra-Limited" variant of this issue were released in June 2013. Per the publisher:

  ONLY 25 COPIES IN EXISTENCE! Alex Ross loves the classic BATTLESTAR GALACTICA, as we clearly tell from his depiction of Lt. Athena on this rare variant cover featuring virgin art! Ships bagged and boarded with a Dynamite Certificate of Authenticity.

Timeline

• The comic deliberately uses Adama's facial hair as a "hallway between full beard of 1980 and clean shaven BSG," further noting that they've been "musing the years they've been forced to roam the galaxy, forever hunted by the relentless, merciless Cylons."
• Furthermore, the events of this comic take place a number of yahrens after the Battle at Galaxy's Edge depicted in "The Hand of God."

Questions

• What are Doctor Zee's origins?
• How many yahrens have the Fleet been searching for Earth?
• How long have the Colonials known of temporal weapons? Are the Cylons aware of them?
• What are the conditions within the Fleet?
