2025 Comics Thread

The Enterprise-Omega is also coming to Star Trek Online, there's some WIP images at the end of Red Shirts #2

There's also a mistake in the upcoming comics section, looks like they copy-and pasted Voyager Homecoming to make the Lower Decks section, but forgot to delete Homecoming lmao.

That might be the same bit about STO I got from Voyager.

Oh, it is there too.

I guess because they released on the same day.

The Voyager Homecoming comic is really undermining screen canon in a way that's hard to justify

Spoiler

because right now it's implied that Admiral Paris in Endgame is Species 8472 (unless he literally was replaced right when Endgame ended and before this comic began). I mean, sure it's possible and DS9 did the same thing to Bashir for a few episodes with even Siddig not knowing at the time, but screen writers I feel can undermine their own work this way but I think it's a bit much for a comic writer to undermine a screen work they didn't write just for shock value.

Homecoming #1 came out today? I wonder why Hoopla got Red Shirts #2, but not it.

The new Terminator comic is insanely good.

No Connors.

No clearly defined mission to destroy humanity.

Random shit.

NASA Astronauts ##cking a SKYNET satellite.

A lone Terminator Liberating this German POW Camp during WWII.

SOVIET spy shit.

Cowboy shit.

 

[JoeZhang]

So the first issue of Voyager was a bit meh, but the "clip" of Last Starship at the end made me even more curious.

I really did not like it at all - very lazy story choices.

Isn't this supposed to be a 31st-century ship? Yet it's cobbled from pieces of 23rd- and 24th-century classes? How does that make sense?

It's contrived, but it could be plausible, since the only ships that would be left would be the ones that had their engines totally off. If Starfleet keeps up its practice of reusing studio models keeping ships in service for decades-to-centuries, the highest-quality starship parts available were pieces from salvage and breaking yards that were too old to have already been recycled.

Or the Fleet Museum.

Yeah, but from a 31st-century perspective, "old" means 29th or 30th century. 23rd isn't just old, it's ancient. It's as far in the past to them as Genghis Khan and the Magna Carta are to us.

Also, as I've mentioned before, the Burn only blew up ships whose warp cores were active at the time. Saru claimed that Discovery survived the Burn because "it was not at warp at the time," which his listener accepted. That tells us that only ships that were traveling at warp at the moment of the Burn were destroyed. Ships at impulse or in port would presumably have been fine. So the comic's premise that the Burn destroyed every modern ship without exception is a major continuity error to begin with.

 

[JD]

Yeah, I'm really surprised nobody caught that, because it's a pretty major misunderstanding of the whole idea behind the first season or two of 31st century stuff in Discovery.
I have to admit, the more I learn about and see of The Last Starship, the less interested in it I am. I was already a little iffy about the whole thing with them bringing Kirk back as soon as it was announced, and it's just gone downhill from there.
