Star Trek: #1 The Wormhole Connection (1984)
DC’s take on Star Trek hit comic racks with its ‘1st star-spanning collector’s issue!’ in time for February of 1984. Set after the events of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, I know we’ll get a few issues before Star Trek III comes along. The first issue, The Wormhole Connection, was written by Mike…

Stargate: Universe (2010) – Space, and Divided
Last time, I watched what was the mid-season finale for Universe’s first season. It saw Young (Louis Ferreira) leaving Rush (Robert Carlyle) behind on an alien planet (with an alien ship) as the Destiny leaps away. The pair had a knock down drag-out fight, and that aired on 4 December, 2009. The story didn’t resume…

And Rogue Protocol is no exception. Seeking more information about the corporation…

Star Trek: The Youth Trap (1970)
In September of 1970, Dick Wood and Alberto Giolitti delivered issue number eight of the Gold Keys Comics Star Trek series. And while it makes no sense in relation fo the series, I do like the image of the captain’s log being transcribed into an actual log book. Though the stardates are still ridiculously wrong….

The Shallows (2016) – Jaume Collet-Serra
Blake Lively stars in a tight little actioner that runs shy of 90 minutes, but features some crisp and beautiful location and underwater photography. Lively is Nancy, a med student who has journeyed to Mexico to surf a secret beach that her mother once surfed long ago when she learned she was pregnant with Nancy….
