Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Culled from storylines that didn't make it past the cutting room floor, the Battlestar Galactica manga takes place in Season 3 of the popular television series. In these interstellar tales, Baltar goes on trial after being falsely accused of massacre, Roslin refuses to implement a new curriculum that is sympathetic to the Cylons, Zarek faces a mutiny after being elected vice president, and Kacey learns something about true maternal love.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Best Battlestar comic out there!
I don't really understand how a property is separately licensed as both a "manga" and a "comic book", since they're more or less the same thing, but this book definitely out-classes its non-manga counterpart.

Unlike the Dynamite comics, "Echoes" mostly choses character-based drama over explosiony scifi nonsense--kind of like the show it's based on.

The dialogue is uneven, both in that it sometimes seems out of character, and that it's often kind of grammatically awkward (is this ... Read More
