In order to satisfy the appetites of those Battlestar Galactica fans who are waiting with barely reined-in anticipation of the next season, Dynamite Entertainment is releasing a new comic book series based on the hit Sci-Fi Channel show.

According to writer Greg Pak, who is a fan of the show, the series will begin in the middle of the 2nd season, before the arrival of the Pegasus. While he did have to send story treatments to Universal before writing the comic Pak says he is being given a lot of latitude in the BSG universe. He may even go into the past to detail the conflict that the humans and the Cylons decades before the timeframe of the current show.

In my opinion, the best thing about the comic book series is no special effects budget that needs to be kept. This means that the writer and the artist can use their imaginations to produce scenes that the show never could.
