Not overly impressed! In fact, disappointed. Supposedly set between the first two movies of the 2009 Star Trek series reboot, this is actually a rehash of two episodes from TOS, "Where No Man Has Gone Before" and "The Galileo Seven", featuring the new younger characters from TOS. Unoriginal and boring. Just watch the original series! ( )

As a Prime reading program, this one was the first comic I read on Kindle and loved the story line and graphics. It was fun to read 2 short stories in this comic; and it makes you wonder what will happen next. If you liked 2009 movie series, this one will be definitely entertaining for you. ( )

It's decent. I like decent! This comic has got purdy drawings of the hot people from the movie. I'm so much more a fan of the reboot than any other star trek franchise. I can't wait for the sequel. Benedict Cumberbatch OMG. OMG will there be comics with Benedict Cumberbatch in them? I'll buy all the toys too. Please please please make me ridiculous stuff to buy. I even ate Burger King to get toys and glasses. BURGER KING! That food is disgusting and I bought it and ate it for the opportunity to have merchandise. I'm totally gonna be so into only the reboot and call myself a trekkie and irritate my traditional trekker friends and family.

I'm such a blasphemer! it's gonna be so much fun

and then when the cumberbabes are finished with star trek we will move into Tolkien fandom bwahahahahahahah! ( )

A colorful adaptation of Star Trek with all the favorite characters. Not to be missed for the Star Trek/Comic fan. Nice clear art work and coloring.
The enterprise receives a distress beacon from and old Star Fleet ship, one that disappeared over 200 years ago. They where attacked, many are dead, but the sound is gargled.....and something goes wrong with some of the crew members. Can Spock, Scotty, Bones and Jim figure it out ? ( )

These are neat tie-in novels to the Nu!Trek movies. They take episodes from the original series and revamp them to fit the new universe. It's great to see Gary Mitchell in the first story arc, and Janice Rand in the second. This volume is composed of the "Where No Man Has Gone Before" and the "Galileo Seven" story lines. Read more after the page break.


Gary Mitchell was a year ahead of Captain Kirk in this continuity, and his friend at the Academy. When Kirk was suddenly promoted to be Captain of the Enterprise, he asked for both Mitchell and Kelso - also from this episode originally - to be transferred to the Enterprise. It's a clear set up for the story to take place as it did in the series.

And it really does. It's actually kind of odd that other than that bit about the Academy, everything is the same as the episode as far as I recall. The art is quite good, although Pine-as-Kirk's lips get big and weird, and kinda feminine.

Galileo Seven, on the other hand, departs from the episode, and it's all compliant with what has happened in the movies. It's a nice surprise, and stays quite true to the episode itself. Some scenes - and by some I mean 'many' - are lifted directly from the episode itself. The art gets kind of funky, though, and it distracted me. The characters change appearance slightly, and Spock is a little more puffy cheeked than Quinto. It's where the minus half star went, actually. Rand gets really weird at some parts in this, too!

Overall, good fun that stays true to the spirit of the original series, while being Nu!Trek compliant. I had a couple hours to kill in a Barnes and Noble, and this was a great way to spend half of that time. ( )
