I’ve read both this and The Illyrian Enigma and have enjoyed both. I enjoyed this one a lot more. It felt like a cross between “The Gamesters of Triskelion” and Voyager’s “Drive.” At its core, it exemplifies the importance of working together and finding compromise. It feels very Trek and is beautifully drawn.
The absolute rizz of Pike even in comic form. I would go into battle for that man many, many times over. 😍
Gosh, I just loved this! The chaotic space-race premise was fun, but as is so often the case with the best of Trek, it allowed an exploration of the power of cooperation and putting your trust in the goodness of people/beings.
The Enterprise finds itself trapped in a Wacky Races style starship race, only if they lose, they'll all be annihilated. Oops.
This is fun, which is always a good sign. The premise is insane enough to be a real Star Trek episode, and the moral of overcoming your differences to reach a united solution that saves everyone is about as Star Trek as you can get. Plus the spaceships and the battle scenes look great.
Top of their game for everyone involved in this one.
A big miss. The art is fine. I don’t like Angel Hernandez’s traced style for people but his ships and action are good. But the story is a total dud. Just a confusing snooze of a space Grand Prix.
A classic Star Trek romp with the Enterprise crew- could have easily been ten times longer and I would have devoured it just as hungrily. Great work to tell a fresh and complete story in the limited format and without skipping out on the depth and emotion at Strange New Worlds' core.
