About this Collection

This collection adapts the original 1978 Battlestar Galactica television series into prose form, chronicling the rag-tag fugitive fleet's desperate search for the legendary planet Earth. It follows Commander Adama, Captain Apollo, Lieutenant Starbuck, and the other survivors of the Cylon attack as they navigate space and face new threats. The volume captures the classic sci-fi adventure of the series, featuring key characters like Boxey, Cassiopeia, Lieutenant Athena, and the daggit Muffit II.

"Battlestar Galactica (Part 1)" kicks off a high-stakes interstellar chase as the Cylons and Ovions, despite their deep-seated rivalry, unite in a dangerous pact to eradicate humanity’s last hope. With the Galactica crew searching for Earth—a legendary planet said to be the cradle of mankind—tensions rise as the alliance closes in. Roger McKenzie’s story, vividly brought to life by Ernie Colón’s dynamic art and inks, sets the stage with a gripping blend of suspense and cosmic peril, all framed by John Solie’s striking cover.
