I’m enjoying this magazine because as a teen living in the UK it is the only Trek thing that i can get my hands on! Everything else has to be bought online…

I just want to say that I live in Ireland and was delighted to see ST Comic at my local Easons (it’s a newsagents). And not one sign of isue two. I asked at the counter, and they tried to fob me off with the last issue of ST Magazine. Now I’d love to get it, cos the IDW comics don’t even seem to be available in Forbidden Planet in Dublin, but if Titan want this comic to succed, they need to get their act together.

#15 – that’s the eternal curse of successful, cross-generational franchises in the UK. The same thing always happens with Doctor Who Adventures, too, (the current issue comes with stickers and 3D glasses!) – it wounds up being put out of the kids section and in with the likes of Doctor Who Magazine, Star Trek Magazine, Lost Magazine, Prison Break Magazine etc,

(And if they don’t do that, they do it the other way around, and put the new issue of Doctor Who Magazine, with its eight page critical analysis of the depiction of consumerism in the series since 1963, on the kiddie comics shelf…)

I bought the second one, because I didn’t see the first one: But as a kids comicbook they had put it on the highest shelf of the grown-ups Scifi magazine section, obviously!

Yup, I saw these advertisied in the UK Star Trek Magazine, and I’ve bought both copies thus far on their day of release. Yes I’m 18, yes I skip over the games and stuff, but after seeing this sort of comic made for Doctor Who and Star Wars, its very exciting to finally see a Star Trek version after so many years.

I’ll be interested to see what they come up with to replace the ‘main event’ of the comic, which is “Countdown” (something that has incidently saved me from having to pay money for the combined book version), when they run out of the four issues to publish.

Yeah, and those of us in the UK would like the new Star Trek Magazine in the UK – NOW.
Unfortunately, the publishers appear to be unacquainted with the invention of the jet engine and are rowing our copies across the Atlantic, so we won’t get them on the shelves here till July 9th.
Go figure.

I still cringe a bit when I look at the new delta insignia. Just a bit, though.

#2:
I’m 48 and I still get kidded about enjoying STAR TREK – and this is from my family members… STILL! I’ve been getting grief for this from a lot of people for pretty much as long as I can remember.

Yeah, the kids will be kidded about it, for sure. It’s human nature for people to be douches sometimes.
