Star Trek 1033: The Remembered One

Mon, Oct 5
REVIEW: Though these kinds of alien stories have been overdone, Worf dealing with K'Ehleyr's death gives this one just enough resonance. And when he lunges at the alien at the end and steals a bite (or Klingon kiss), it's a strong moment. There's too much verbiage at times, and the alien neve...

DIVERGENCES: The title was also used for a DS9 episode. Picard has a different fish than Livingstone in his aquarium. If O'Brien had been a Klingon before, he sure doesn't mention it in Apocalypse Rising.

(in Opinion: Star Trek 1037: Wet Behind the Ears)
DIVERGENCES: Though Picard promises the training mission will use a Constitution-class, the exterior and interior design is nothing like either the original or refit Enterprise (closer to a Constellation-class, in fact). Not sure who those ladies are on the cover. Ensign Ro's not in th...

PLOT: Riker is trapped in a phantom zone, on a station that has been sucked into a rift in space. Though ghostly phantoms tell him there's no escape, he doesn't give up hope. The Enterprise sends a probe into the rift, but though they lose contact with it, Riker turns on the station's shields to...

(in Opinion: Star Trek 1034: Honor Bound!)
PLOT: Running from the Shardak - a martial honor-bound race of empaths - Picard's old, retired friend, Anson Peters, asks to come aboard with his son. The latter boy becomes fast friends with Wesley, and Picard and Anson reminisce about old times. When the Shardak fleet catches up to the Ent...

REVIEW: Ugh. This story didn't work for me. At all. Though it gives the artists the chance to indulge in barbarian comics imagery, the premise is expounded us via an ensign relaying a message sent by the memorial. Even if I was happy with the babble-a-thon, why the middle man? And since the Enter...

(in Opinion: Star Trek 1030: Strangers in Strange Lands!)
REVIEW: You know when I said Okona might not be annoying in comic book form? I was wrong. His insufferable flirting with Crusher, long expository (but not that useful) speeches, and the fact the likeness is way off really don't help. It could be ANY character in this role and it wouldn't chang...

PLOT: Back on Earth, Worf's adopted son, Jeremy Aster, is meeting Alexander for the first time. He finds out that the ¾-Klingon boy would rather live his life as a human. On the Enterprise, Worf wishes he could be there, but that's just not possible. The starship has just found the outrageous O...

(in Opinion: Star Trek 1028: Thin Ice)
PLOT: The Enterprise-D gets a distress call from Captain Halk of the USS Marco Polo. Halk is a childhood friend of Riker's, and as we find out in a series of flashbacks, has always been one for taking risks while Riker took the safer road. When the Enterprise finds the Marco Polo, it is surround...

PLOT: The Einstein crew and its allies push back the hostiles and manage to get the shuttle into range of the warp ship at the edge of the makeshift space station's range. They then show the hostiles mercy and beam them into the ship's cargo bay. Wesley figures out how to fly the ship, but while i...

PLOT: It's Beverly's birthday and she's feeling blue, so Deanna takes her on a hiking trip on the holodeck where she learns to feel alive. Riker gives a talk in class and gets pwned by Wesley. And Worf answers some email and tells his ward to pursue the girl of his dreams.

PLOT: Planet Domakleion now has two queens who have inherited it and can't agree on who should run it. Picard has been given diplomatic status to help them iron out an agreement. The problem: Domaks are telepaths who regularly use others to do their assassinations for them. Neither queen wan...

PLOT: The Enterprise-D flies to intercept its mirror image, but arrives too late to prevent the destruction of the USS Merrimac. Data notices that the bogus ship's movements mirror those of the Enterprise more than two years prior, so Picard takes a gamble and flies off to what was the ship...

(in Star Trek 1009: The Noise of Justice)
REVIEW: A good showcase for the characters. The plot doesn't move much, as we already know what their depositions will say, but Friedman gets the chance to work out each of their "voices". Picard gets the most panel space, of course, with some dynamic (thanks to Marcos) flashbacks that make...
