The IDW series started in 2011 with little fanfare to my
memory, and despite my ‘Trekker’ status, I had no interest in it at all.
However with the release of the new movie, a friend telling me to read it and a
new arc in the comics starting at issue #21 released last week, the stars
aligned and I gave in. What followed was a nice jaunt through a series that
would be right at home next to a DVD set of The Next Generation or Deep
Space 9. Writers Mike Johnson and Ryan Parrot do a great job keeping the tone
of the characters consistent through all the current issues. The various
artists must all be given a huge tip of the hat for their unique, but similar
representations of the actors and actresses that the characters looks are based
off of.
