First pic of Christine Vale?

Therin of Andor · December 20 2012, 11:55 AM

The USS Titan makes a cameo in the latest issue (#3) of Brannon Braga's "Hive" mini-series of IDW's TNG comic!

I assume this is our first official pic (below left) of First Officer Christine Vale?

It certainly looks like it.

It's always good to have character art; I wish it were more common.

Pretty cool!

Therin of Andor · December 20 2012, 01:56 PM

Any speculation on the male Ops?

What's up with the Galaxy-class horse shoe rail? I always figure Titan's bridge to be an amalgamation of the Intrepid and Sovereign class bridges.

Coolness.

Although I too am confused about the guy in the foreground. I can't think immediately of any regular Titan bridge character that fits. It kinda looks like Data with a goatee.

Wasn't there a bit Taking Wing where we're told it's the actual horseshoe railing recovered from the wreck of the Enterprise-D? Or did I hallucinate that?

Artist Joe Corroney confirmed on Sean Tourangeau's Facebook page that it is indeed meant to be Vale.

That pretty much looks like how I've imagined Vale so it works for me. Also, I think the Titan designer Sean Tourangeau created an image of the Titan's bridge (which was essentially a mash-up of the Enterprise-D and E designs, complete with horseshoe railing).

He doesn't correspond to any character I'm aware of.

FWIW He's tagged as Marco Palmieri.

Hehehehe. I just heard back from Heather Jarman, who is often mentioned by the other authors as the person they had in mind as a physical template for Vale. She's blushingly in denial.

Same here! Being red/green colourblind, I didn't even notice her collar colour until after I scanned the image and posted it.

Why's Tuvok wearing Command Red??

King Daniel Into Darkness · December 20 2012, 10:29 PM

Because it's an IDW comic book. Details are not their forte.

I like that image for Vale, it's pretty much now I've pretty much alays pictured her.
