Product Description: Dorothy "D.C." Fontana, the writer from the original Star Trek TV series, as well as The Animated Series, The Next Generation, and Deep Space Nine, is joined by partner Derek Chester (Star Trek: Legacy) for The Enterprise Experiment, an all-new series set in the unexplored fourth year of the U.S.S. Enterprise's legendary five-year mission. The Enterprise Experiment is a sequel to the classic episode "The Enterprise Incident" - originally written by Fontana herself - where Kirk and Spock found themselves trapped on an Enterprise out of phase with space itself and facing a plot of revenge from the Romulans!
Year Four Comic Review I can really only give this comic three stars. At times the artwork is brilliant and at other times it's very simplistic. The writing is weak and relies on cliche. I've read other comics of this Genre by IDW and they were a lot better and the art was more consistant. I have to say that some of the art reminds me of the things I used to post at some of the Trek Forums. Looking forward to the Mirror Universe comic.
Keep on Trekkin!
Great addition for original Star Trek fans Warning: A few spoilers ahead...
This graphic novel is terrific for fans of the original Star Trek series. After a brief foreward, it contains multiple stories, including one story about dilithium with some references to today's politics on energy. The characters include Arex and M'Ress from Star Trek: The Animated Series. The artistry is well done. If you are a Star Trek fan of any era, it is definitely worth buying...
Captures The Essence Of Star Trek Perfectly This is a great book. It really has the characterizations down pat. From McCoy saying "He's dead Jim" many times to the banter between Kirk, Spock and Bones, these stories have the feel of left-over scripts from the original series. The art is somewhat cartoony at times but it works. There is one instant classic panel which shows Kirk in his melodramatic pose of being in pain from an unseen force that will incite instant laughter from any fan of the show. The word balloons even have the emphasis on certain words in Kirk's dialogue to incorporate the immortal melodramatic cadence of William Shatner. Buy this book now, you'll love it. 5 stars.
