Sure all the hype this week is about the new Season 4 of Battlestar Galactica..

I’m still pretty excited about Season Zero though.

Issue #5 is FRAKING awesome…solid art, neat plot with the ship overrun by what seem like proper Colonials…but aren’t.

Who need the cylons when you’ve got a rebel insurgency within the colonies and a potential civil war?

I guess the colonies were pretty messed up even without the Cylon’s nuking them into non-existence.

This series is pretty now pretty frakin good.
With no real Battlestar Galactica on save for the Razor flashbacks – the comics are our only BSG refuge and this series is now really coming into its own.

The best part of this issue is how well it ties in with what we already know from the series. This could easily be canon.

Issue #2 marks the end of the first mini-arc and is a real solid issue that shows Adama being the stand up man we know him to do.

The series has barely begun but Battlestar Galactica Season Zero can already lay claim to being the most popular BSG comic book of all time.

How can that be??? It’s only at issue Zero.

EASY.

Dynamite gave issue Zero away.

On Free Comic Book Day.

They gave away …drum roll please…

….

100,000 COPIES

Is it any good? Not really. It’s a pre TV movie era prequel that likely won’t ever be considered to be canon. Adama crosses into Cylon space to rescue a lost expedition and run into..surprise surprise – CYLONS.

Kinda reminds me of the bulldog episode.

Artwork is crap and the story is real baseline. But hey it was FREE.
