CLASSIC ART: ADAMA - BRINGER OF DEATH!


The Cylons are the ultimate xenophobes, fearing and hating other species - mankind especially! So it's with good reason for them to especially fear Commander Adama, no longer their prey and prepared to unleash a deadly virus against his old enemies that may destroy them once and for all. A terrific cover for Dynamite Comics Issue 3 of the excellent Cylon Apocalypse.
