Worf has just starred in his own (very good) ongoing comic series, Star Trek: Defiant, but it's still wild to think about Kirkman approaching the #TrekComic universe. What he has done with Transformers is outstanding.

Robert Kirkman says Battle Beast was written as Worf fan fiction, because he’s a huge Star Trek The Next Generation fan. #NYCC

I'm reminded that the novelisation of 'Bem', massively expands the original story and takes the reader on a tour of Bem's homeworld Pandro. Spoiler: it's a mad

I just noticed in VOY 'Macrocosm', when Neelix is infected with the virus, Janeway identifies rising body temperature and fluid in his lungs. 'Lung', he corrects her, as a neat callback to S1. ep. 'Phage'

Background Bolian Cho'dak, famed for his appearance in every episode. of TNG, is also in every VOY ep. Transporter clone Kho'dac appears in every DS9 ep. Both appear in LDS (All played by Tom Stands). Stands also plays other variants; Villain Cho'dark, cyber Know'dak, & fan favourite 'C' #ChodakTNG

“First Intimacy”
Season 6, Ep. 1

Captain Ransom uses unique negotiation tactics during a tense mediation between two opposing factions on Eros II. Rutherford awkwardly navigates his feelings for his crewmates without his implant.

'First Intimacy' could be a Lower Decks S6. Episode title

@christrekkin.bsky.social just seen @elittlechild.bsky.social Odo cargo bay 101. And yes I totally agree with you Ellie 1000% yes. However not for the faint of heart. Sadly Paramount did bring out a *checksnotes* trading card to commemorate that scene. Yes it does actually exist sadly.

Are there any Trekkies going to #NYCC who would consider picking me up some Star Trek comic variant covers and posting them to the Alpha Quadrant (UK)
