Battlestar Galactica: Origins – Dynamite Entertainment – (2007–2008) – Volume 1 – Limited Series - #1–11

📘 Series Summary

Expanding on the mythos of the award-winning 2004 reimagined television series, Battlestar Galactica: Origins is an 11-issue limited series from Dynamite Entertainment. Each story arc functions as a deep-dive into the "before times" of the show's most pivotal characters, detailing the events that shaped them before the Cylon attack on the Twelve Colonies. The series is written by creators with deep ties to the franchise, including Kevin Fahey, Clay Carmouche, and Robert Hall.

The issues are divided into character-centric arcs: issues #1-4 focus on the rise and moral complexities of Gaius Baltar; issues #5-8 detail the tragic and rugged history of William and Lee Adama; and the final issues (#9-11) conclude with the hot-headed early years of Kara "Starbuck" Thrace. Featuring interior art by Jonathan Lau and a mix of stunning painted covers by Fabio Laguna and television photo variants, this series is the definitive companion for fans wanting to know how a scientist, a soldier, and a pilot became the last hope for humanity.

⭐ Why This Series Stands Out

  • The primary "prequel" series for the 2004 reimagined Battlestar Galactica universe.
  • Character arcs written by show insiders, ensuring a tone that aligns perfectly with the gritty, modern series.
  • Features Jonathan Lau's detailed pencils, capturing the likenesses of the actors while maintaining a unique comic aesthetic.
  • Essential backstory for Gaius Baltar, explaining his role in the Cylon's plan for the Second Cylon War.
  • Includes a wide variety of collectible covers, including high-end painted art and "virgin" photo variants of the cast.
  • A complete 11-issue limited series that provides a satisfying beginning to the Galactica saga.
