The crossover of Deep Space 9 and Next Generation casts with the current blockbuster version was awesomely done without feeling too forced.

Wonderful! Loved seeing all the characters I love get to interact in new ways! I honestly wish it was longer, maybe a novel or something so that I could get more of the backstory of this Worf and Sisko and the game etc. Like all Mirror Universe episodes there’s a lot of “why would they even all still know each other?” But it’s fun all the same and the writing is great especially for the reboot Kirk Spock and McCoy.

Disclosure: I received this free from Netgalley
First, I admit I am not all that knowledgeable about Star Trek culture in general and had to ask my boyfriend to identify characters quite a few times. That being said I really liked this and how it combined characters from many different shows into one story. The artwork was okay, but it wasn't anything super special. I felt a lot of times the characters lacked a bit of facial expression but this might just be the style that was aimed for. That being said - it's inspiring me to dig up some of these shows to watch them, and anything that does that must be pretty good!

While the Primeverse part was a bit out of character and far from being canon, the Kelvinverse story was actually really good. The best I’ve read yet.
Only that every well-known ‚future‘ character is introduced by appearing suddenly is a little annoying, thus only four stars.

I really enjoyed this comic. It combined characters between Star trek generations and portrayed them perfectly. When I read this, I felt like I could here the voices of the characters, like Chris Pine's Kirk. The portrayal was really accurate. The disdain from Bones and the logicalness of Spock were radiating. The story was inteiguing and really made me think. Overall I would recommend this to any Star Trek fan.

I love a good blending of Star Trek eras, and this one was done really well. I prefer it when this series does an arc, rather just just standalone issues.

My hat is off to Mike Johnson. This was a good Q story and included not only Picard, but also the cast of the best Star Trek series - DS9. Johnson nails the characters and with supporting characters, gives the women several good roles - there is a kick ass security officer. Enjoyable.

I received a copy of this from the publisher through Net Galley for an honest review.
While this is not my first graphic novel (third maybe), it is the first one I have reviewed. I’m kind of lost on how to begin and what to comment on. A little back ground on why I picked this one up. It was free for review on Net Galley and I am a huge Star Trek fan! I figured why the hell not.
Reading a graphic novel is quite a different experience from a typical book. The story is much shorter, you don’t need to fill in all the imagery yourself and it doesn’t work so well on an e-reader. I found the pages would lag and it disturb my reading flow and then you have the much smaller screen and teeny tinny little print. I would have enjoyed and appreciated this much more if I had had the print version instead.
Otherwise the story was a lot of fun. It took characters from two of the TV series and threw in the cast from the latest movie and sent them on an adventure orchestrated by perhaps one of my favorite Trek characters, Q. So many great characters made cameos in this book I couldn’t wait to see who showed up next! Compared to my last read the plot moves at warp speed and I found myself wishing for more pages. I will definitely keep my eye out for more of these Star Trek graphic novels.
The art work was amazing and beautiful. I was surprised at how well they captures these familiar ships and faces from the shows and movie. Again the only thing I wish here is that I had the print version so I could have seen it on a grander scale. I think it might have lost something on such a small screen.
If you are a Trekkie like me give this graphic novel a try. I think it will keep you entertained for an afternoon and have you wanting to check more out. It did me.
