Battlestar Galactica Saga Of A Star World Comic Collection

This book collects issues #1-5 and #15-16 of Battlestar Galactica, originally published in single-issue form by Marvel Comics. Issues 1-5 cover the original miniseries and issues 15 and 16 are original stories. Although the artists renderings of the characters and some of the ships of the rag tag fugitive fleet didn't look much like the TV show I thought the comics were well done. I also noticed that a couple of the issues didn't seem to print as clearly as the others. I really enjoyed issue #15 that tells the story of Boomer and Jolly investigating a deep-space distress signal. During his investigation Boomer makes an interesting discovery that only he will ever know. The cover art by Gary Leach is excellent and in addition to the comics the book contains an introduction by Richard Hatch, some factoids about the series, the history of BSG in comics, books and merchandise, and some nice schematics at the end of the book that include a Colonial Viper, Cylon Raider and Baseship, and the Galactica herself. If you like comics and the original BSG I think you will enjoy this paperback.
