Nice, thanks!
Man, I am sick as a dog right now, I didn't need to find out about a chess-like game that I'm in no condition to actually be able to learn the rules.
Whelp, time to find some tutorials.
I feel like Sisko would be having more fun than that. Seems like a dude who'd be down with a log flume.
Okay, but the review seems to neglect mentioning how easy it is to explode? Huge oversight, in my opinion.
Well, back in the 60s colour television was new, so the filming techniques for buttholes has evolved since then.
The first issue of The Scorpius Run isn't doing much to grab me. The premise of the Enterprise crew being forced to compete in a race is interesting enough, but for whatever reason the idea that the Enterprise itself is going to be in the race just seems silly. Like a cruise ship race. All the other ships were of similar size; do they have comparable crew compliments?
Anyways, writing is fine, but the art seems a little stiff. I don't really have any thoughts on the issue beyond that.
Star Trek #11 is a fun read, but ultimately seems like it's spinning its wheels, as very little story progress is made here. There are a lot of good character interactions -- the highlight of which is once again Lore and Data, though Doctor Crusher and Sela also have a cool moment only slightly diminished by the fact that Sela still seems shoehorned into the book -- but the main attraction for Day of Blood is Sisko, Worf, and Emperor Kahless, and they're pretty much no where in the book.
Nit picks: The likeness for Tom Paris has always been off in this book, and never more so than in this issue. It's like the artist heard of the Nick Locarno issue and is worried he's going to have to pay royalties if Paris looks too much like Robert Duncan McNeil. Also, Ro has been done dirty ever since she showed up in Defiant #1, and this issue is no exception.
Compliment sandwich! I really like the interpretation of the Kobayashi Maru that Lily Sato gives.
To be fair, he was being controlled by an angry space fart that fed on negative emotions. Chekov also claimed the Klingons killed a brother he never had.
Yeah, there's a lot of little touches in there, like the "Delta Flyer 3" on the car that really elevate it beyond the standard slapdash meme. I prefer to post my own OC, but when I saw this one, I knew it had to be shared.
That's not how that movie was marketed though; it was marketed with a bunch of bad CGI and half-assed adlib because Paul Feig couldn't write an actually funny script even if he had Mel Brooks and Mike Judge puppeting him like marionette.
What you're talking about is the same thing I was talking about, the very conception of the idea. Star Trek from the very beginning in 1966 has been about pushing the boundaries of diversity on television.
Do you have an example of something where that is happening?
Neat!
I am a bit disappointed that these are going to be explicitly non-canon, though.
