Karl Kesel And Alec Morgan Team For Battlestar Galactica: Gods And Monsters

Karl Kesel and Alec Morgan are teaming up to tell a tale in the re-imagined 2004 BSG universe called Battlestar Galactica: Gods and Monsters. The new series kicks off in November. Karl Kesel is know for decades of work with DC Comics, as well as having written multiple series for Marvel. Alec Morgan has worked for both Marvel and DC, most recently on covers for Aquaman and Midnighter.

Baltar believes he was chosen by god- and now moves closer to being one himself when he constructs a living Cylon Centurion! Is it his greatest achievement or biggest mistake? Truly obedient or waiting for the perfect time to strike? Is it the protector of Sharon's unborn baby or its greatest threat? Will the Cylon's bloody history repeat itself?

"All the characters everyone loves are here – Sharon, Helo, Adama, Tigh, Roslin, D'anna, Apollo, and of course, Starbuck. And back on Caprica – Anders, Brother Cavil, and the rest of the Resistance fighters," says writer Karl Kesel. "Most importantly, we get to see Baltar go total 'mad scientist' and build a Cylon Centurion from battle-damaged parts."

The first issue features covers from Morgan, Pete Woods (Action Comics), and Brett Schoonover (Howling Commandos of S.H.I.E.L.D.), and will be solicited in the September 2016 Previews catalog.
