Keep up with all the Star Trek comics news, previews and reviews in TrekMovie’s comics category.
Debt of Honor was one of the best TOS comics connecting TOS, TMP and post IV eras (along with the Mirror Saga and Peter David’s #1-12 arc with RJ Blaise, Sweetney, Kirk hunted by Klingons and his trial). That Kirk was implied to have a Romulan daughter opened the door for a true movie era continuation too. Was a cool alien style threat that linked to major galactic events and brought together the Romulans and Klingons. I’ll def pick that up again (wonder if I can find my old copy).
It’s a good deal too. The price point is considerably cheaper than the original hardcover from DC was 30(ish?) years ago; before inflation.
Still have my copy of “Debt of Honor”. One of the great classic Trek comics. Totally agree with you on Mirror Saga as well!
Year Five #7? I have issues #1-10 already, so that can’t be right.
RE: Vote Mudd. Satirical political *was* comment here. Thought better of it because I don’t that kind of aggrivation in my day from all the right-wing nut jobs freaking out.
Wait, these are coming out in June? What happened to the other issues of Too Long a Sacrifice, which haven’t come out yet? How about Year Five 11-14?
