That's weird. It works for me. Here's the article featuring the picture.

OMG! It's Ace Hunter!

Ace Hunter? Anyone?... MegaForce??....Anyone??

C'mon -- people from the 1980's can't forget Commander Ace Hunter (Barry Bostwick) from that fine 1982 film MegaForce,
which, by the way, costarred Persis Khambatta

Commander Ace Hunter:

Well, anyway, it's either Ace Hunter or Ra's al Ghul.

Naaaaah... That's Brad Majors.

This sounds very cheesy but I wouldn't put it past them: Bobby's wearing a yellow command smock but without the black undershirt. Maybe John Harrison mugged the old boy and stole it...

Solution to the April Question (Maybe): He was in line to command the Enterprise and got snaked by Kirk being wonder-boy and saving the Federation and Earth and got booted out of running for the center seat. It's an ideal.

On a side note: I love April's jacket in that panel. Don't know why, I just do.

Just like there's no possibility that it's not Khan?

None.

What the hell is this shit? Spock has a nightmare about Vulcan's destruction? That's the preview we get of the series? Now we're really going to uber-draconian lengths to avoid revealing any kind of info about the movie. The preview which could set up the plot of the comic and gives us hints about the movie is essentially a recap of the previous movie.

This kind of dicking around is getting out of hand and offensive. Either reveal something or don't, stop playing these games of kind of revealing something but not really doing anything. At least Countdown's preview had the hilariously horrible dialogue of Nero and his crew. "No time to explain, Big Boy. Just get your ass moving."

When will the comic be out?

January 23, this coming Wednesday.

After reading a few of your posts I've decided you might be too emotional for this forum.

This forum could use some colour, if you ask me. There's far too much Abrams fawning around here, a dissenting voice to shake up the status quo should not only be a welcome change, but a required one. Even/especially if my arguments are narrow-minded and only serve to appease me.

Come on, we are Trek fans, Abrams is The Man. The Man is not supposed to be liked. Trek fans of old didn't like Rick Berman, Star Wars fans don't like George Lucas, Doctor Who fans don't like Steven Moffat and they didn't like RTD before him. What the hell is so special about Abrams that he gets worshipped while others in his position are so reviled?

Avengers fans don't like Joss Whedon...

Oh, wait.

Admiral Buzzkill · January 25 2013, 05:17 AM

Abrams entertains us. This seems to be the major distinction between him and the others.

You're such a hero.

He makes good movies. With Star Trek he made an entertaining movie that appealed to a broader audience and made more money than any other Star Trek, even adjusted for inflation which thus gives us more Star Trek down the road, breathing life into the shitty, rotting carcass that was Star Trek before he took over.

All of this should be quite evident. If you're one of those "no Star Trek is better than JJ Star Trek" people then I truly pity you and good luck with that.

Considering Disney also owns the Avengers, down the line Abrams may get that franchise, too. Saw this special monorail at Walt Disney World this December.
