Two examples of BG actors and the writing question:
- Jack had a
fantastic story arc for Bojay within the Realm Press comic books which never saw the light of day. I still have it. Maybe he'd be willing to have it published online.
- Dirk says he's rather not pen the adventures of a licensed character. He'd rather create his own, as he did with "Cahoots." (And
how...)
As for the "ongoing" battlestar Pegasus adventures, see Richard's novels.
I'll say no more, due to spoilers.
iBooks, for now, seems very content to stick to Richard's BG continuation universe. The sales have warranted ongoing books from Richard. Last year, there was a branch of Image Comics who considered publishing stories from the "Second Coming" universe, either pre-trailer or post-trailer. I think they were discouraged by Universal's licensing costs for the BG property. (I wouldn't blame them. It's very costly.)
Personally, I'd love to see a book published with fan stories. Or a copy of a coffee table version of a BG technical journal/manual. (Speaking of which: Stay tuned for some news on a similar topic later this week. I know Paul/Kingfish (in particular) has been waiting to hear this, like yourself and many others. Except it won't cost you the price of a coffee table book.)
Hey, I'm not pre-announcing! It'll be a surprise. And one which has been waiting to be seen since mid-2000.
