(Classic) Battlestar Galactica: The Death of Apollo #5

Two figures — one in a sweeping purple cloak, one in a flight uniform — stand alongside a seated Daggit as they watch a trio of Vipers streak through a star-filled sky, their engines blazing brilliant yellow-green trails. It's a quietly striking image from cover artist Mike Mayhew that balances the grandeur of deep space with an almost melancholy stillness on the ground. Dan Abnett and Dietrich Smith bring this penultimate chapter of The Death of Apollo to a head, and this fifth issue promises the kind of high-stakes tension the title alone commands.
