PaperBackReader.com loves “Battlestar Galactica” #2

Bart Gerardi has written a rave review of the “Battlestar Galactica” #2 comic book, penned by Greg Pak with art by Nigel Raynor. Here’s the capper:

If you’re a fan of BSG (and if you aren’t, you should be,) then this is a fantastic read. If you’re just a fan of the genre, you’ll like this too, as the story trancends the Battlestar mythos, and will grip you like few Sci-Fi on the market today will.
