Take my upvote. It’s an appalling thought.

It was decided by suits that it was too gory (not broadcast in UK? initially) so they reworked the idea into the Borg.

But this idea did get revisited and played out in the Relaunch novelverse. Huzzah for Treklit.

Paramount & Nickelodeon dropped Star Trek Prodigy recently, but it’s coming to Netflix very soon. The 20 episode first season will be out on Netflix before end of year, and a new season in 2024.

And many older fans are loving it too. I’d describe it as ‘family viewing’ rather than a show for kids. It starts out (intentionally) feeling like that other big franchise to some extent but by episode 6, it’s the Trekkiest thing ever!

Appreciate your integrity.

It just sounded like something you might actually say this week…

Stamets - you may have a future as ‘an independent artist/designer’ on TeePublic.com.

I’d buy it.

It seems such generic American soft rock. Journey or bands like.

No matter that the singer is British and the song was originally written and recorded by Rod Stewart.

Even having lived in the US as a student, I never could understand the appeal of that stuff.

Both are established and solid Treklit authors.

I find it interesting that Simon & Schuster is back to contracting new tie-in novels within the existing timeline of classic Trek shows.

Answering myself - as I ordered this and now have my own copy.

Titanbooks is being as non-transparent as possible.

— the copy on the back cover says “Includes original fiction by …”

— the publication details on the back of the title page do not mention any of the stories having been previously published in the magazine.

However, the typesetting and layout is exactly that as in the magazine.

One would have to know a particular story from a particular magazine issue to confirm whether it was previously published.

So it seems.

We mostly see 3D chess in the franchise, but 3D checkers exists too.

Not a Kevin hater, just feeling Moopsy deprivation.

Why not have both?

More Moopsy in Lower Decks & Kevin Riley recast and recurring in SNW. He’d be an ensign about then.

No wonder they replaced him with Chekov. That was way to much baggage for a regular in that era.

But he’d be fine on SNW. A recast Kevin Riley could be mentored by La’an.

Anson Mount would love this - he’s a fan of Detective Pikáchu.
