Yesss...there is that. BUT I think the 'powers-that-be' might be very wary of another L-O-N-G strike. BUT then with prices rising who knows. For sure we'll have the second half of season four and the first thirteen episodes of Caprica. I think the first season of Caprica was in the docket before any cutoffs in production (if this has happened - I've not kept up with the entertainment industry's latest legal wranglings). Too busy on my own writing. Which reminds me I must now jump back into that 'can-o-worms'.

Hey here's an update regarding B-star-G comic books!
This September publisher Dynamite Entertainment will start a B-star-G comic book series titled GHOST. It will feature a 'black ops' viper squadron (yeah like the black/blue toy vipers from the Titanium line) that belonged to the Battlestar Pegasus. Ghost Squadron was attached to the 'Beast' prior to the Fall of the Twelve Colonies. It was on a hush-hush mission while the 'Beast' was being refit at the orbital shipyard around Scorpio (seen in Razor). Well Ghost Squadron was cut off by the massive Cylon attack. So Ghost Squadron found another way to fight and survive. They found a deep space salvage team also unaware of the attack. Sounds a bit like the SW: Rogue Squadron comic book from a few years back. Anyways this comic book series is further cool evidence that there are more B-star-G stories to tell. Also coming in the is a comic book series about the First Cylon War. The other two monthly titles - ORIGINS and SEASON ZERO continue. These comic books are top-notch and are great companions to the tv series. Visit Dynamite Entertainment for more info and artwork!

The 'Bucket' has it's Wedge Antilles in the form of 'Hot Dog'. So this Ghost comic book will give us the Wedge Antilles, Tycho Celchu, Wes Janson of the 'Beast'. How kewl is that. Colonial Viper squadrons need some focus like SW gave to X-wing squadrons. Well looks like this be it. Might we not see a B-star-G novel series featuring the missions of Colonial Viper squadrons - past, present, future? I'm sure the writers of Ghost realize that SW comic readers will be comparing Ghost to Dark Horse's Rogue Squadron adventures. DROOOOOLLLLLL! Sorry the starship junkie in me is overly stimulated.

The latest TV Guide will have the first set images from the Caprica prequel. As I've stated the general look of this B-star-G backstory is 1930s-1950s, but enhanced by cellphones,GPS, FTL and cybernetic research. One of the images is of Joseph Adama (Esai Morales) and Daniel Greystone (Eric Stoltz). Joseph is wearing a black overcoat that reminds me of the 1980s TV series titled Crime Story (set during the 1950s oddly enough). He wears a 1950s style cap and has a fumerello (bibi or cigerette). Greystone looks a bit more modern in dress. The dark sunglasses he wears look like ones from the 1990s. Which kinda fits his character - that being a man ahead of his time - after all he is the inventor of the Cylon. Other images are of a diner serving Gemonese and Caprican meals as well as good ol' fashioned hamburgers (wonder if the patties are shaped like the books and papers of Colonial society). Also images of the Athenian University coat-of-arms and building are displayed.

Looks like TokyoPop Manga comics are going to do an anthology of stories based on Sci-Fi Channel's version of B-star-G! The anthology is titled Shades Of New Caprica. It is scheduled for release March 2009.

Well I found an excellent Battlestar Valkyrie (seen in the episode titled 'Hero' - was Adama's first command) model kit at Wonderfest! Also bought the Colonial starship called the 'Bezerk'. This smaller millitary starship is seen during the Cylon attack on the Scorpia Shipyard in the B-star-G tv-movie Razor. Likely the Bezerk was a Colonial destroyer or frigate.

I was on vacation the beginning of the month and watched every episode of BSG out so far. Loved it, watched it so much that week, I kept hearing "Multiple dradis contacts!" even when the TV was off.

-URGENT CAPRICA REPORT-
Hey B-star-G fans a full Caprica promotional preview is up at Sci-Fi Channel's website. I found it through Ain't It Cool News. WOW! Looking good. Check it out. The promotional preview begins with something like - "When tragedy strikes...two families will rise...". You'll see Admiral Adama's father in his prime and shaking hands with Cylon inventor Daniel Greystone. Plus other intriguing elements.

Well fellow Nuggets we have a title to the new B-star-G television-movie that will be shown after the season 4 finale next year. The title is-
BATTLESTAR GALACTICA - THE PLAN
Simple and to the point, eh? BUT oh so loaded with socio-political 'nudge-nudge-wink-wink'. It does not take much to compare and equate the Cylon Plan of 2003 (new BG's release year) with Bush's 'Shock-and-Awe' plan of 2003 (start of the disaster we're in now). I'm sure when the Cylons first began to draft their plan to attack the Twelve Colonies of Kobol a second time it looked great on paper. Just like Bush and his top henchpersons thought the 'Shock-and-Awe' plan would be a cake-walk like Gulf War 1. Oh what folly! The best made plans are laid to waste once the Chaos Factor clicks into place and starts taking pounds of flesh (or metal in the case of the 'chromejob' Cylons). The lifeblood of the new B-star-G is not hemoglobin. It is not even the ichor of gods. BUT rather it is IRONY. And so the new TV-movie next year will I think finally reveal just what the original plan was and how it did not stay on target. It will show how plans take on a life of their own and move in unpredictable ways. All the while drowning in vast oceans of pure allegorical irony. Is life mimicing art or is art mimicing life? Tune in next year for THE PLAN. That is if the McCain (really looks alot like Tigh) 'skinjob' allows the show to continue. I'm sure the weasel has a PLAN for Ronald Moore and his writing staff - not to mention the Constitution - after all what Bush began McCain will continue - as soon as McBush...er, uh...McTigh remembers where he placed the oval office paper shredder. (evil laugh) Heh-heh-heh

Not to mention John McTigh's VP pick looks a little bit like Roslin....So I guess Roslin must be the Final Cylon!
I'm Zach, over in Southen IL by the way, I've been to Evansville a few times. I can't beleive theres other BSG'ers around here! Do you guys costume,etc.? I'm Radium over at TCF (ColonialFleet), I've thought I was all alone down here with no BSG peeps to be found! I costume as a Battlestar Marine and collect BSG props/patches. I just got quite a few new items, so I'll wait to get some pics. of my current collection.
But ya, this is aboustly awosme to know I'm not alone finaly! Did/Are any of you at Dragon*Con? Hopefully you checked out our TCF party if you where/are there!

Hello, and welcome to our boards! I'm not sure if any of us costume BSG, but we've got quite a few Stormtrooper/Rebel/etc costumers.
Although if I had the huge hair and a sexay chest I could play Lee in Series 4
