It’s a big week at West End Comics with a couple new recommendations from Kirk, and a title I had to read, and a continuation of some I’m enjoying. Harrow County (Dark Horse Comics) issue 3, this one continues to be a great book! With a story by Cullen Bunn and arts and letters by…

Issues Vol. 6
Kirk continues his sterling work at West End Comics, and sent a couple of new titles my way in addition to my pull list, which wasn’t huge this week, but was very entertaining! First up is Star Trek (IDW) Issue 46. This is written by Mike Johnson, with art by Rachael Stott, colours by Davide…
Leonard Nimoy (1931-2015)
Leonard Nimoy has boldly gone. I only had the pleasure of meeting the man once, shaking his hand briefly at a photo op that left me look rather bewildered and goofy, but is still a treasured moment. He was kind, patient, and jovial with each of his fans that day, and despite the fact…
Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home (1986) – Leonard Nimoy
The 101 Sci-Fi Movies brings me yet another personal fave, and the lightest of the Star Trek films to be made. Leonard Nimoy takes the director’s chair as well as helping on the story front to make a commentary on the society of our times (in this case 1986, though it’s still relevant if not more…
Star Trek: Into Darkness (2013) – J.J. Abrams
This is a summer blockbuster first and foremost. Since Trek made the leap to the bug screen, they’ve had to eschew some of the material that inherently made Gene Roddenberry’s Star Trek what is was when it was a weekly television show. After The Motion Picture, which I still love, the series began to shift…
Star Trek Into Darkness – Trailers and Thoughts
I am a Star Trek fan, from that first Saturday morning when I discovered the show in the late 70s, but before The Motion Picture came along. I can find things I like about every single one of the television series, as well as the movies. I love the world and the future Gene Roddenberry…
IDW Star Trek (Ongoing) – Issues 7 & 8 – Vulcan’s Vengeance
The IDW Star Trek series, which I am greatly enjoying, no matter how far I seem to be behind on them (sorry, I like to take my time with them and savor them), brings its first all new story to life in the reset universe. Previously we have visited past episodes of the classic series, updated,…
IDW Star Trek (Ongoing) – Issues 3 & 4 – The Galileo Seven
It’s hard to reinvent the wheel. It’s hard finding new ways to tell stories that people know already. And yet, IDW, with their new Trek series, set in the alternate universe created in the 2009 movie, seems to be doing a fine job with it. This time around, in issues 3 and 4, they revisit…
IDW Star Trek (Ongoing) – Issue 1 & 2 – Where No Man Has Gone Before
I dabble in comics occasionally, Superman, Batman, Justice League, Buffy, Iron Man. For the longest time, I had fallen out of them, but am slowly finding my way back in. So it’s no surprise that my love of Trek, turned me to the new ongoing series. IDW took a chance when they launched their new ongoing…
Star Trek: The Bantam Books
I finished navigating my way through the original Bantam novels this weekend. As stated in my previous post there were 15 of them altogether in addition the episode adaptations (some of which I still own). I will say this, I may not be suffering from Trek overdose, but it’s never been easier to see all…
