Spoilers Star Trek: Explorer Issue 1 Short stories

[Mike Doyle]

I can’t a review thread for these. Is there any CI census on how we should do it? A thread per story, per issue, digital add on separate from the print issue?

I’ve read the first 4 and liked them all. I wonder if every issue will be themed like this one has Q.

I liked bits from all of them. Q and Kirk realising that Q had no power on Kirks nexus reality was great. Loved the Quantum Leap reference too.

It looks like the next one's theme will likely be Borg, if they do a unifying theme each time.

I had assumed we’d just have a running thread for all the issues, and had planned on starting one if my first issue would ever show up.

I did really enjoy the digital supplement stories so far. I was excited to see the Garak story mention the Torr district from A Stitch in Time.

As they aren't mentioned in the thread yet, I thought to add the titles, authors and descriptions. I still have to read some of them.

Q and False, by Lisa Klink, illustrations by Christian Rosado

Kirk meets Q eh?

 

[Reanok]

I've read the stories in the magazine and thought both of the Q stories were well written and I enjoyed the fact we got new stories with Q again.

 

[Markonian]

I downloaded the app and bought the digital mag. There were only the two Q stories in the mag. How does one access the digital exclusives?

 

[Eduardo]

I was in the same boat, seems the supplement is only for physical subscriptions... . Another member here was kind enough to share it with me so I could read it.

Never got a reply from Titan Mag support abot this issue, time to resend it...

 

[Reanok]

All of the stories should have been in the magazine I'm very unhappy James Swallows Enterprise story and Una McCormack's story isn't t in the magazine either.I think that's really dumb we can't read them.

 

[Tosk]

I feel like I have a vague memory of a very short fanfic by Una about Garak in the brig. I wonder if she dusted that off for this or if it's totally new.

 

[Una McCormack]

It's totally new.

 

[Tosk]

That makes me sadder that I'm not in a position to read it.
(And a bummer that this was the post of mine you saw, and not one of the several where I mention how much I love your work. )

 

[Ronald Held]

Have not read it, just got around to finding a copy.

Aw, I don't always get a chance to check here regularly, so I often miss things. But thank you!
