“We’re through running from these bastards.”

It’s time for a Captain Riker comic. And maybe a new tv show.

Actually, that’s a valid observation, and one that the miniseries directly addresses: because it’s a war for their very survival, they fight even more ferociously than ever before, and that’s what makes possible their eventual conquest of Earth.

Just in relation to that Star Trek: The Last Generation where Kirk fails to save the Federation President at the end of Star Trek vi, kind of sounds a bit daft since the klingon empire was expected to die out as a race, I would have thought that Star Fleet would have wiped the floor with an enemy in decline and with dwindling resources???

Would love to see a post Nemesis Picard comic and a post Nemesis Riker Titan comic.

with the new movie tie ins I hope IDW still realease TOS comics with the likenesses of Shatner and Nomoy etc.
Movie tie ins will be cool but hope TOS is not abandoned for the new actors

I bought the Year Four trade paperback a few weeks ago. I had high hopes but it let me down. Only one story was good enough to be considered part of the ST mythos. I hope the other IDW ST comics are much better.

Count me in for an Excelsior series! Of everything listed above, that’d be my top choice.

I think a Titan series would also be pretty cool, and am liking a lot of the other stuff, as well. For that matter, while I’m not sure the story arc will allow it for the foreseeable future, a Vanguard tie-in would be pretty awesome, too.

I also just got my latest order of Trek comic books in the other day, and really enjoyed them. the “Assignment: Earth” story about the Vietnam War protesters is a standout. Really excellent!

Yeah, I absolutely love Sulu in command of the Excelsior. He plays a major role in Star Trek: The Last Generation. Also, it’s being drawn by the awesome Gordon Purcell, who did the Star Trek VI movie adaptation for DC Comics back in the day, so there’s a neat bit of continuity we’re working into things there.

It would be cool if they adapted that Khan series of books that Pocket Books printed a while back. They had cameos from Gary Seven, Flint, Redjac, the Area 51 scientists (who held Quark and Rom),and even that guy who was cryogenically frozen and resurecte in TNG episode ” The Neutral Zone”. I would definately lik to see this adapted in graphic novel form.
