to #10: Because Harriman was apparently good enough to be captain of an Enterprise (not too many uncles could pull enough strings to get a flagship command for someone who doesn’t deserve it). Jellico was an insecure old fart.

Jellico knew what he was doing in CoC. Riker was a whiner-baby and everyone else didn’t get it that the Federation was on the brink of war. Billions of lives were at stake and Jellico’s outstanding tactics and diplomatic skills were all that prevented their deaths. He understood the bloody Cardies better than anyone else.

In the New Frontiers books, he was promoted to admiral and Capt. Calhoun reported to him.

And what about the poor old Star Trek V adaption?
Maybe if we are lucky they will start a DC Comics post Star Trek V omnibus with the Star Trek V adaption like they should have done with Star Trek I in the 1980 Marvel Comics Omnibus- that was forgivable when they were planning a Movie Omnibus but now it’s just out in limbo like V’ger…

Feel so negative but i had to say it…

as for the Star Trek 2009 adaption, i too am wondering how they are going to get the last hour of the movie in 2 comics even if it was very action oriented & low on story/dialogue…

Picked up the Star Trek: Motion Picture Trilogy, I already had the Star Trek II adaption in single comic form & the Star Trek III & IV adaptions but wanted them in collected form.

What is wrong with The Collection editor & Designers Justin Eisinger & Niel Uyetake?
Have they never seen a trade paperback of collected comics before?

I was dissapointed by the covers being used inbetween the seperate issues of Star Trek II adaption- i thought the idea of putting them in a trade was to have one flowing uninterupted story?
There was inside cover art in the single issues that could have been used less intrusively as breaks if there was no budget for creating original art to use- the good old delta shield logo usually works.

They inserted alternate Star Trek II covers in between the adaptions of Star Trek III & IV
This is odd & really Jarring, almost as much as the odd Redrawn covers of the Star Trek III & IV adaptions- they could have used the original inside cover art, & cover art then the other covers could have been put together in the standard cover art gallery.
a complete cover gallery.

I thought all this was standard, what is wrong with mr Eiesinger & Uyetake?

Captain Jellico must have been promoted to admiral or reassigned to another starship since the Cairo was destroyed during the Dominion War and was commanded by someone else at the time.

has anyone picked up on the fact that the move adaptation is about to get one hour of Star Trek into 2, 22 page issues? It’s a little redonculous.

Hey, shouldn’t the uniforms for the Jellico comic be from the first two seasons of TNG? Or does the comic take place later in the timeline?

That’s some awesome artwork on the Jellico comic.

I was scouring my mind for that name and came up with nothing. Thank you!
