“Deathtrap!”

Marvel's adaptation of the hit TV series charges into its third issue with a cover by Dave Cockrum and Rudy Nebres that puts the danger front and center: a gleaming Cylon warrior looms large, rifle in hand, while a young woman and her daggit companion are cornered by a menacing reptilian alien against a fiery backdrop — and a squadron of Cylons closes in from the shadows behind. Titled "Deathtrap!", this May 1979 issue promises high-stakes tension across the stars, with interior work by the creative team of Roger McKenzie and Ernie Colón bringing Glen Larson's universe vividly to the page.
