Notes
edit- This issue was published during the broadcast run of Season 2, providing fans with insights into the Cylon characters and mythology.
- Tricia Helfer's portrayal of Number Six in her various forms (including Caprica-Six, Gina, and Head Six) was one of the most complex acting challenges in the series, making this cover feature particularly significant.
- Tahmoh Penikett's character Helo had become increasingly important in Season 2, particularly through his relationship with Sharon "Athena" Agathon.
- Michael Rymer was one of the key creative forces behind the Re-imagined Series' distinctive visual style and tone.
- Like all issues of The Official Battlestar Galactica Magazine, this publication featured full-color photography and production imagery.
