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….

Star Trek: The Voodoo Planet (1970)

Of all the Gold Key stories I’ve read so far, I like this one the least. It’s not very Star Trek, it’s just an issue of silliness using voodoo dolls, chants and magic potions. Not very Trek at all. The writing is once again by Dick Wood, and Alberto Giolittie continues to deliver the art…

Star Trek: The Ghost Planet (1969)

The boldly going continued for Gold Key Comics in September 1969, when The Ghost Planet was unveiled to Star Trek fans. Dick Wood continues his writing travels with the Enterprise, and Alberto Giolitti supplies the art. I remember all of the issues so far. I had them collected in The Enterprise Logs, which I read…

Star Trek: The Peril of Planet Quick Change (1969)

The Enterprise continues its journeys across galaxies (?) in Gold Key’s The Peril of Planet Quick Change.

I wish it was more in…

Star Trek: Invasion of the City Builders (1968)

Issue three of Gold Key’s Star Trek comic was available in December of 1968. That’s a ridiculous three issues in the space of over a year. Dick Wood remains on as the story’s writer, but this time out there is art by Alberto Giolitti. After some repair work on the port nacelle, referencing it as…

Star Trek: The Planet of No Return (1967)

I always love my Trek, but there are times when I just cannot get enough of it. I’ve been listening to the scores, whistling Fred Steiner, watching Strange New Worlds, revisiting The Original Series, digging back into the novels, and it struck me… I haven’t really done much on the blog with the comics. So…
