The Joshua Tree

Battlestar Galactica:
Season 2.2

The second half of season 2 of Battlestar Galactica comes
out on September 19. This box set will have many great
episodes. It has the conclusion of the mid series cliff
hanger (between Galactica and Pegasus). We will learn
about the existence of the Resurrection Ship and also get
a deeper look into the darker side of humanity with the
introduction of the black market episode and episode with
Cloud 9 being held captive. This half of the season we also
see one of the main characters die. Most importantly, we
learn about the birth of the Cylon/Human hybrid baby and
end on a season cliffhanger with future of humanity looking
very bleak. With season 3 starting in October, this is a
great box set to get you caught back up or refreshed for
the series.

Fantasy Realms

Fantasy Realms has the best art of any manga style comic that I
have found. Niko Geyer does an amazing job drawing in the manga
style. He captures action extreme well. His colors, shading and line
work are all done beautifully. The story starts right in the middle of
a battle so that you can get a real feel for the style of it. Clay
Gardner does a great job weaving the four main characters past
into a believable story. The only downside of this comic is that it
only updates once a week, on Mondays (although it usually has
multiple pages). I can't really complain about this though, because
the quality of the comic is outstanding. This is a very fast paced
comic, so you can read through the archives very quickly, but you will
have to be patient for the once a week updates. If you enjoy an
anime or manga, definitely give this comic a look.
