synopsis
Subtitled "The Coming of Shadows," Season Two of Babylon 5 was launched on November 2, 1994. In the first episode, "Points of Departure", Bruce Boxleitner joins the cast as Captain John Sheridan, who assumes command of B5 when Sinclair is appointed ambassador to Minbar. Sheridan's first assignment is to deal with a renegade Minbari spaceship--a delicate situation, in that Sheridan's status as a war hero was predicted upon an attack against a Minbari outpost 12 years earlier. "Points of Departure" was written by J. Michael Straczynski.
