Grimlock ♥ Ultra Magnus
Grimlock ♥ Ultra Magnus rated it 7 years ago
Although it's really about a more advanced race, living on another plane, who have their own prime directives. Fun, but this isn't on the Enterprise, Spock and Uhura are missing, and I miss the feel of the old crew. While this says a lot about what other races might think about us, especially i...

Recently, I read my way through the Collected On-going Star Trek, its follow up series, and two special limited runs. I think it was a reaction to the Orange One’s comments about Charlottesville. The comics take place in the Kelvin Timeline. For those of you who are slightly clu...

While this is a fascinating look at Khan's history, it's also told in a memoir style, and called into question immediately after his trial. (Yes, trial, but it was all one story and told as a huge flashback; the present was intercut every now and then, but really only at the beginning of the issu...

And this is pure AU, given what happens at the end. It's pretty much a fanservice story: wouldn't it be fun to see Green Lanterns, and Red Lanterns, and all the color Lanterns in the Star Trek universe? (Nu!Trek, by the way.) Even better, we get to see some Star Trek characters as wielders of...

A new storyline, and this feels like a one-shot. It's Jaylah's turn to shine as we see who she was in reverse: it keeps going back in time until we see her birth. She could have been better in the movie, and I feel like this is starting to flesh her out even more here. I really enjoyed seei...

And, oh, think about the damage they could do with him! I was half expecting him to be Locutus, but this ending was far more perfect: it made sense, it leaves it open to another storyline in the future. Actually, it pretty much promises one. Creepy, and it resolves the Romulan storyline as wel...

This series gets better and better as more is revealed about why the Federation is being attacked, and how their new foe plans on getting information - and hopefully resources. There's also a subplot with the Romulans, including the first Romulan officer who is Earth born and feels more loyal to E...

This sets up the bridge between Star Trek: Beyond and the next movie. This issue in particular sets up where everyone is - they're taking sabbaticals, or on other ships for short stints while they wait for the Enterprise to be rebuilt. It's a lot of fun, and of course, there's tension: there'...

Volume 1 is two very simple stories, straightforward but well told, little showcases for the characters. I'm sure the comic will build, but for now, this was a light and quick read I really enjoyed! And volume 2, while still simple, straightforward stories, the complexity of both the storytelling ...

It's a fun new take on Star Trek, and this felt more like diplomacy. Yes, with action, but the solution was a bit of talk, at least for Kirk. It was all about actions that would ripple throughout the universe, it was all about thinking those through and making your choices, even before that was ...
