Go GALACTICA for a quarter
Starting June 1, Dynamite Entertainment is offering comics readers a may-as-well-be-free sneak peek at its hotly anticipated BATTLESTAR GALACTICA monthly series, based upon the Sci-Fi Channel’s ratings scorcher.
BATTLESTAR GALACTICA #0 (yep, zero) will be sold for a mere 25 cents in comic shops everywhere, under variant covers. Personally, we don’t know why anyone would pick a drawn cover over the one at right, featuring a photo of the may-as-well-be-nude Tricia Helfer, unquestionably the series’ sexiest Cylon. The issue also will provide readers an advance look at Dynamite’s future comics revival of THE LONE RANGER.
As they did with last year’s RED SONJA, Dynamite will be going the quarter route once again in August to promote its launch of a HIGHLANDER title, based upon the inexplicably popular Christopher Lambert films.
[...] BATTLESTAR GALACTICA is my favorite show on TV these days, so I was happy to us getting a plug in for Dynamite Comics’ 25-cent #0 issue, which came out this week. For the record, I think Tricia Helfer is the third-hottest Cylon on the show (see Exhibit A), and that’s not including Xena. [...]
Lucy Lawless, easy.
Tricia is so overrated. I don’t see the appeal; looks like your average skinny blonde with a homely mistakable face.
