It’s here. The entire behind-the-scenes story of Crusade as told by the actors and crew…while the show was actually filming.
From the first frame of film until the last, these cast and crew interviews occurred “as-it-happened” so they are free of any revisionism. Nothing is forgotten. No detail spared.
Asked & Answered, Part 5
The long-awaited Asked & Answered Part 5, the fifth and final book of the Asked & Answered series, has arrived. Packed with 1,301 questions, Part 5 has the most questions asked (and answered) of any book in the 5 book series.
Picking up where Part 4 left off, Part 5’s questions and answers are all related to the specifics of each episode and movie, starting with Season 2 (Season 1 was the final section of Part 4) and continuing through “The Lost Tales: Voices in the Dark.”
Asked & Answered, Part 4
Asked and Answered Part 4 is J. Michael Straczynski’s real-time history of the beginnings of Babylon 5: from before the pilot (including the online announcement of the series) and through Season 1.
Part 4 is loaded with details that never made it to the screen as well as the origins of what did eventually air.
Asked & Answered, Part 3
Rants, religion, money, sex and Star Trek…just a few of the topics covered in the most volatile release of the entire Asked & Answered series.
Part 3 (pages 779-1,183) includes more than 1,100 missives.
Asked & Answered, Part 2
Part 2 (pages 387-778) includes more than 800 missives grouped into the following topics: Fan Interaction, Five Year Arc, Fun with JMS, Influences, JMS on JMS, JMS on Politics, Legacy of Babylon 5, Merchandise of Babylon 5, Music of Babylon 5, Online Experiment, Physics & Babylon 5, Places & Planets, and the Production of Babylon 5
Asked & Answered: Part 1
It’s true. The creator of Babylon 5 answers 5,296 fan questions covering every aspect of the show in over 100 categories in this new Babylon 5 book series.
J. Michael Straczynski answered these questions as they surfaced over a period of 18 years as part of an online experiment he started in 1991 and continues to this day.
