Battlestar Galactica: Death of Apollo is a six-issue comic miniseries published by Dynamite Entertainment in 2014 and collected in 2015. Written by Dan Abnett with art by Dietrich Smith, it is set in the continuity of the original 1978 television series created by Glen A. Larson.
The story follows the crew of the Battlestar Galactica as they encounter a new threat during their long search for the mythical planet Earth. The series deals with questions of sacrifice, command, and loyalty among the classic characters, with Apollo facing a particularly personal crisis. Abnett’s approach to the material is faithful to the tone of the original series while introducing a standalone narrative accessible to readers familiar with the show.
Dynamite Entertainment has produced several Battlestar Galactica comics over the years for both the original and reimagined series. The Death of Apollo storyline is among the more substantial original narratives produced for the classic continuity and is of interest primarily to fans of the original television series.
