Spoilers Star Trek: The Last Starship

New character, Wowie refers to them as Ensign Marks at one point.
Well, the V'Shar still exist in TNG, so no reason to expect the Tal'Shiar wouldn't. Perhapd the V'Shar got subsumed into the latter when Vulcan and Romulus merged.
Of course there's a reason. That's like expecting modern Germany to still have the SS. The last thing a liberated society would want to do is to preserve the oppressive instruments of the old authoritarian regime.
Besides, it's disingenuous to equate an intelligence agency with a secret police. An intelligence agency's goal (in principle, at least) is to control potential threats to protect its people. A secret police's goal is to control its people to protect the regime.
Could I ask that you perhaps consider the tone in which you respond to me in future - or just ignore my posts? In two different threads this week, youve misquoted and misrepresented things Ive said. You drove me away from this board for a long period once before, and I know of others who have said the same, and Id rather that didnt happen again.
I used the quote function to insert your sentence verbatim. I did not edit it in any way beyond omitting the second sentence of your post. Anyone who reads the posts can see that for themselves.
Yeah, but V'Shar isn't infamous for selling out their own people for an unelected robophobic cabal. I would argue the name Tal Shiar cannot be separated from evil.
So it looks like we've got another entry for the list of creative decisions made Colin Kelly & Jackson Lanzing that I completely disagree with.
Trolling
If it is a helpful point of comparison, I just put him on "Ignore" years ago and stopped attempting to interact because I was tired of constantly being rage-baited by his disingenuous responses. It was quite useful to my mental health.
You have been here long enough to know that publicly discussing who you have on ignore is considered trolling on this site. And then you top it off by a personal dig at the poster in question.
Infraction for trolling. Comments to PM.
Isn't the Tal'shiar both?
They're been depicted as both in the shows at least.
We don't know the full context yet.
If you have the Hoopla app, both issues are available for free download for 30 days.
I asked my wife if it was just me or could she not read that print either. Fortunately, she said she couldn't either so I guess i"m not totally blind yet.
Blingon?
Has the story given any reason why Kirk looks like original series era Kirk rather than Generations era Kirk, or is it just an artistic choice?
I'm only finding #2 on there.
And of course the only one of the three newest series that I'm not interested in, is the only one they're adding the individual issues of on release day.
