I know this is an old thing I've done, and most of you have seen it. But I was asked by someone if it was still available anywhere, and I couldn't find it online. So I uploaded the pages to imageshack.

Hope you enjoy! (again)

thanks for posting this again. I read this online comic several years ago, and enjoyed it very much. Never forgot it, and even tried to find again it a few times, with no luck.

Do you think its any co-incidence that in the GINO series episode "The Hand Of God" they used "Colonial Movers" type freighters, with Vipers hidden in the container boxes? I think not.
I have often thought that the story of people who were left behind would make for really good story's.

You know... I hadn't really thought about that... how the Colonial Movers was used in GINO. At least the Movers gets to see some screen action, but I guess my Vipers docking inside came a bit earlier. Pretty cool!

I too think it could be a really good story(s) to tell about the people who didn't make it with the fleet. Of course I prefer the original series timeline as I like characters I'd rather see live than hope the Cylons just wipe them out. Call me crazy! I think Syfy would be smart to do some short web series based on such things... but we know where their Battlestar bread is buttered.

Depends on how much metal the Cylon's invested in reducing the Colonies after the initial attack.

Since the Galactica got in and got out with little trouble only seeing a few Basestars in the distance I'd guesstimate that they used their whole Fleet for the initial blitzkrieg and the bulk of the ships had to get back ASAP to minding other borders and needed patrols.

So there'd be a relatively small force doing the moping up of the former Colonial worlds, too much to actually fight head on, but spread out and manageable if the survivors were clever and picked their battles carefully.

I know this isnt the forum for this, but My story ideas always had guerrilla fighters increasing their firepower with captured Cylon equipment/ships. In fact I think that logically Cain would have tried to do the same thing, they were acquiring fuel and ammunition that way. We know that human pilots can pilot cylon ships, as well as infiltrate an operational Base Star. I think a hundred Warriors stowed away in a Cylon Re-supply freighter could easily capture a Base Star and effectively double the Colonials firepower.

Anyhow, I liked the Sentinals, and really liked that you had a Nomen among the crew, They were by far My favorite characters on the show.

awesome .. I remember this from back then .. some of these images inspired me at the time to do Galactica art too . before I got into modelling the ships

Was anything beyond episode one of this written / animated ?

David Kerin · January 6th, 2014, 04:51 PM

Never did anything beyond that. I think I had an idea in my head, but I find that I enjoy working on a new project, but the excitement to do a second of the same is not always as strong in me. Like how I never got around to another "BSG: Adama Journals" episode.
