Though there isn’t any new Battlestar Galactica on the tube , there is some great stuff at the comic book store.
I just finished reading Battlestar Galactica Season Zero issue #1 and…WOW great frakking stuff. Solid plot and character stuff..art isn’t fantastic but it’s not bad either.
The 6-issue Season Zero series follows Commander Adama and crew as they take on their first mission on board the Galactica. Though this is issue #1 its not actually the first issue in this series.
As reviewed here on ShowMeSciFi.com there was an issue zero for season zero – it was arguably the most widely read/printed/distributed Battlestar Galactica comic book of all time.

Battlestar Galactica Finale in 2009? September 6, 2007

Sit tight nuggets! SciFi intends to frak with you.
Though we all know now that that the next season is the last for Battlestar Galactica – apparently the season may well be split over the course of not one but two calendar years (2008 and 2009).
This is what i would call adding insult to injury.
Ok so the show is ending – that’s both good and bad. True diehard fans will watch no matter what. But the casual fan isn’t going to bother. The current 10 month gap between the last season and the next is bad enough..but SciFi channel that FAN HATING BASTION of non-creativity is going to do it to us again.
But what can we do? Petition the network? Boycott them?
i DON’T know….i guess as long as SciFi Network’s parent NBC Universal is making money they don’t really care.
Battlestar Galactica Razor : 8 webisodes on the way! July 16, 2007

Remember last year’s Battlestar Galactica Resistance Webisodes?
They’re BAAAAACCK.
In advance of the two-hour movie Battlestar Galactica: Razor on Nov. 24, SCI FI will air an eight-week series of exclusive mini-sodes, between two and three minutes in length, beginning in October. The promotional shorts will provide a backdrop to events that will take place in the rest of the fourth season of Battlestar. Written by Michael Taylor and directed by Wayne Rose and Felix Alcala, the shorts will take place during the original Cylon War and center on a young William Adama (played by Nico Cortez), who discovers a dangerous Cylon weapon that will come to haunt him and his crew 40 years later. The mini-sodes will be available on SCIFI.COM after they debut on the network.
Neat. Though at 3 minutes each they will be painful to watch one at a time.
If you haven’t seen the trailer for Razor yet check it out, it’s frakkin cool.
Battlestar Galactica’s Katee Sackhoff (Starbuck) in Bionic Woman fighting the Bionic Woman May 14, 2007

Gotta hand it to NBC they sure know how to cast for a SciFi show. They’ve just released some initial footage from the new Bionic Woman show..one of the clips has Katee Sackhoff (Battlestar Galactica’s Starbuck) fighting The Bionic Woman Jamie Sommers. Katee Sackhoff is set to guest star in a re-imagining of the 1970s show.
Guess Starbuck (Sackhoff) really is a fembot! (aka Cylon!!)
Star Wars : Zam Wesell set to be part of volume 4 of 30th anniversary hardcover series April 10, 2007

Zam Wesell has a very brief role to play in Star Wars Episode II Attack of the Clones.
As such, it’s easy enough just to write this sentient off as a bounty hunter scum associate of Jango Fett right?
WRONG.
In this graphic novel Zam Wesell teams up with Jango Fett to actually….get this…
SAVE THE REPUBLIC.
Turns out they gave a real nutcase a weapon capable of destroying Coruscant and both Jango and Zam actually do have some kind of conscience.
This is an excellent graphic novel, solid story with decent art.
ShowMeSciFi highly recommends this graphic novel to those interested in seeing another side of this misunderstood bounty hunter.
If you can’t find the original graphic novel – not too worry you’re going to get a second chance real soon.
The original graphic novel is also set to be included in Volume 4 of Dark Horse’s 30th Anniversary Star Wars Series – so if you want to wait to see this in a freakin awesome hardcover edition..it’ll be out in June.
