An improvement over the somewhat disappointing first issue
I only really picked this issue up for the beautiful cover from Alex Ross, but the story made me glad I did. Where the first issue spent way too much time on set-up we're thrown right into the action here as Starbuck and Apollo are lost in the middle of a temporal storm after using their time missiles (yeah, this series has time missiles!) to fight off the Cylons.
With the Galactica missing and the pilots low on both fuel and ammo the pilots split up hoping one of them will make it to a nearby Colonial supply station before the Cylons take them both out. Each, however, find themselves lost in a world that only barely resembles the one they know.
Alternate dimension/timeline stories can get tedious pretty fast but this issue does a good job of setting the stage with an interesting premise and I'll stay around at least one more issue to see what happens next.
