Star Trek vs Star Wars – A New Hope (Cover Art))

[Chuck Weiss]

This is the cover art for my new 200-page graphic novel, “Star Trek vs. Star Wars – A New Hope. It was done by a Ukrainian illustrator. I’m offering the book as a free download at Scribd.com. This is an historic cross-over, featuring the two great titans of Science Fiction. All I want is for people to read it. Here’s the URL.

I earned my Star Trek credentials in 1974 when I co-founded the Federation Trading Post, with stores in Berkeley, California, and New York City. It was the first retail store ever devoted to a television series. People Magazine published an article about us at the time (January 12, 1975).

Live long and prosper,

The Federation Trading Post--man--that brings back memories.

I'm trying to put together a Wikipedia page for Federation Trading Post. It's a piece of history that should be documented.

I'll let you hijack your own thread.

That would be amazing. The history of 70's Star Trek when it was almost entirely the fan community is an astonishing thing. I think it's a pretty decent representation of what the audience felt Star Trek was or could be.

Myself I have a tremendous nostalgia for 80's fan Trek, but that was after the movies and before TNG. And as I later learned we were standing on the shoulders of the "wilderness years".

The perfect story for a cross over would be the mirror universe Section 31 assisting the Empire in building a massive--Super Star Destroyer sized Planet of the Titans ship with tech from both worlds in it.

Extra-mean.
