This issue, titled "In Darkness Find Me", is set between the TV episodes "Chrysalis" and "Points of Departure". This story was intended to show events referenced in the TV show from different perspectives. One important event revisited here was the Battle of the Line; some of Sinclair's last words during the battle were changed by DC's editors for this issue ("If I'm going out, I'm taking you bastards with me!" was softened to "you demons"). JMS was "considerably less than thrilled about it."
Credits: J. Michael Straczynski (script), John Van Vleet (cover), Michael Netzer (pencils), Rob Leigh (inks), Robbie Busch (colors), Tracy Hampton Munsey (lettering).
I purchased this one already slabbed largely for my own convenience and to get the ball rolling.

"Shadows Past and Present" was the first issue of the next story arc, set prior to TV's "The Coming of Shadows". There is a marked improvement in the physical quality of the comic with this issue. JMS convinced DC to upgrade the title to it's Fracote Format, using a higher-quality coated paper stock.
Credits: Tim DeHaas (script), Scott Hampton (cover), John Ridgway (art), Robbie Busch (color)
This book was acquired raw as part of a full-run of generally higher grade copies.

"Coda for Human and Narn in B Flat" is the second half a two-part story set between the TV episodes "The Geometry of Shadows" and "A Distant Star". Gerrold had originally outlined this story as a proposed episode, but JMS rejected it for that format. DC opted to pick it up for the comic series, and JMS allowed it to be produced relatively hands-off. What resulted is frequently inconsistent with previous B5 material; this story is not generally considered canonical. JMS also "wasn't terribly pleased" with Guay's art style for the series.
Credits: David Gerrold (script), Rebecca Guay (cover, pencils), Rick Bryant (cover, inks), Robbie Busch (colors), Tracy Hampton Munsey (lettering).

Dynamic Forces also offered a "Dynamic Forces Signed Edition" (of 1750 copies) of this book. So far as I am aware, that's just a normal copy of this book signed by JMS and packaged in a Dynamic Forces sleeve. Accordingly, neither CGC nor I consider it to be a distinct variant.
