Get ready for the new daily show

Stargate Universe’s story will finally be wrapped up in new comic series

June 8th, 2017 by Marc Comments

Remember how bad it felt when Stargate Universe ended after season two on a cliffhanger and was never resolved?

Well, fear not because American Mythology comics will be bringing us SGU Back To Destiny for the third week in June!

The new stories pick up where the television series left off and are meant to be a sort of “SGU Season Three.” (They are under official license from MGM, but the TV show’s creators and writers are not involved.) While Eli races against time to repair his damaged stasis pod, a new danger to the ship threatens the fragile plan meant to keep everyone alive.

Mark L. Haynes & J.C. Vaughn are writing “Back to Destiny,” with Giancarlo Caracuzzo providing the art.

 

The Stargate comics come with a cover price of $3.99 and are available in comic stores nationwide. Digital issues are also for sale at Amazon (for Kindle devices) and Comixology.com.

Collectors will want to look for the main cover (labeled as such right under the price) and also a number of alternate covers for each issue, which include both original art and cast photography from the SGA and SGU television runs.

The Stargate franchise’s previous comic book runs include a 4-year run for Avatar Press, which published SG-1 comics and concluded with a brief Atlantis story in 2006 and 2007. Dynamite then picked up the license from MGM and published “Vala Mal Doran” and “Daniel Jackson” titles in 2010 (a total of nine issues).

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
