There was a #StarTrekProdigy Art Book in the works. I was going to co-write it.
It went into limbo when it was removed from Paramount+ with uncertainty if Season Two would find a home. Then more uncertainty when Paramount was merging with Skydance.
If you want it — Trek fans should rally for it!

That said, if they don't release a #StarTrekProdigy art book it will be a literal crime.
