Okay. I REALLY hope they make this comic book canon now.

Can’t wait for the movie. Looks cool.

Wonderful story to set up the movie and add serious depth to the Villain.

If anything, its purpose is simply to give more character to an evil bad dude.

Got my TPB today and read it immediately. Loved it.

Well, i haven’t read any of it, because i live in Indonesia and there’s no goddamn way to buy it. But let’s not make the flaws from the comics into some boomerang for us all to watch the movie. Hell, i think they are just (how to say it???) foreplay… before the real thing emerges from the movie.

You know, let’s assume that the Black Hole part sends Nero and Spock back in time in the JJ-verse. That’ll justify things more than any quantum mechanics thing ever could!

67 – Very funny pic!

100 – About the techno babble: this was not written by Orci & Kurtzman so maybe they will have a different explanation for trying to stop the supernova.

T -35 days!

127. RD –
“This comic series was a total waste of time and money…In fact NOBODY will care, except the dwindling core of Trek fans…NOBODY WILL EVER CARE ABOUT TNG OR CANON AGAIN. None of it matters except to old Trek fans who could not even muster enough ratings to keep Enterprise alive. This comic was purely a marketing tool to appease the OLD Trek fans and shove more green into their wallets from the fan pigs Paramount know cannot help but feed from the trough of merchandising. And after this review, I’m not sure Alex Fletcher and trekmovie.com aren’t tools for Paramount.”

Whew, dude, you’re turning purple! Breathe slowly…that’s it, in and out. Relax, you’re hyper-ventilating. Forgot your meds, huh? Remember what they told you in anger management: It’s just a show. Paramount has no secret agenda against you personally, ‘k? I know, I know “What about the Bildeburgers and Freemasons?” You’re just being paranoid again. Remember: Paramount is just selling a product — no one’s forcing you to buy it. No the orderly’s gonna give you a little shot and you’re gonna take a nap now, k?

In addition, doesn’t it seem highly unrealistic that someone who has commanded only an old “simple mining ship” would have been capable of so quickly learning how to effectively use an advanced military technology and so quickly developing an understanding of military strategies sufficient to defeat experienced military personnel? As Ayel points out, the crew of the Nerada are only miners, not soldiers. This plot development requires too great a suspension of disbelief.

However, I did really enjoy this series and greatly look forward to seeing the film.

#127—”This comic series was a total waste of time and money. ”

Not for those of us who had fun reading them. And I haven’t spent any more than a few minutes and the price of a good cup of coffee on any of the issues.

“Any of the important information conveyed in here (and I’m not sure there is any) will be shared in the film in dialogue.”

And rightfully so. It would have been a poor decision to require audiences to become familiar with the comics before seeing this movie in order to understand what is going on.

“This comic was purely a marketing tool to appease the OLD Trek fans and shove more green into their wallets from the fan pigs Paramount know cannot help but feed from the trough of merchandising. ”

I don’t see how that’s any different from the rest of the entertainment business, now or in the past—except of course for your use of the term “fan pigs” to describe consumers and “trough of merchandising” to describe these consumer products, which is a bit dramatic to say the least…

But it seems par for the course with you, and fits right alongside your rants about lies and conspiracies that made you “TM’s number one drama queen” to begin with.

You’re certainly always good for a laugh.
