MU: Shards and Shadows BC Text and new cover

[BrotherBenny]

Which one carries on the main MU thread? Is it the Destroyer of Destinies' TNGish story?

More than one story, actually, will involve the big-ass storyline.

And we can now reveal that there's a handy guide to the "main" Mirror Universe, incorporating references to the novels and short stories, in STM 15, out US Christmas week, out UK early January, written by (fill in your own reference to KRAD)... It doesn't spoil the stories but gives an indication where they all fit in the MU's history.

And we can now reveal that there's a handy guide to the "main" Mirror Universe, incorporating references to the novels and short stories, in STM 15, out US Christmas week, out UK early January, written by (fill in your own reference to KRAD)... It doesn't spoil the stories but gives an indication where they all fit in the MU's history.

And, in fact, the guide will cover all the MU stories, regardless of whether or not they're consistent. There'll be a "main" timeline, which will include the televised MU adventures and the recent fiction (Glass Empires, Obisidian Alliances, Shards and Shadows, Warpath, Fearful Symmetry, and Turnaround), with sidebars for other excursions (Dark Mirror, Dark Passions, various comic books, the Shatner books, etc.).

Maybe I've been out of the loop, but what, pray, is Turnaround?

Peter David's recent New Frontier comic series.

Which, by the way, comes after the Shards & Shadows MU story...

Cool, so hopefully it should fill in the gaps then.

If you're referring to the timeline, then it doesn't try to second guess any future volumes - it just charts the dates and places that are now "established".

The mini-series subtitle doesn't seem to appear anywhere on the omnibus, though, only inside the single issues.

No, I meant that the NF short story filling in the gaps between Cutting Ties, and Turnaround. I guess I should have been more specific, sorry.

It doesn't fill in all the gaps - there's space for at least one more story there!

 

[JD]

Well, that gets another cool from me then!

There was a very good reason for the change, but I'm not at liberty to say what it is. But the T'Pol cover is the new one and the one that will be on the book, yes.

And I gotta say once again, looking at that cover and having re-watched "In a Mirror, Darkly" again for the MU timeline I put together for the magazine, that Jolene Blalock looks so much better!!!!!! with the long hair....

Agreed. I always thought it was too bad that ENTERPRISE's producers made her wear that stupid wig when Vulcan women didn't wear short hair till the 24th century. All Vulcan women in the 23rd had long hair. Yeah, I know, styles change, and all that nonsense, but I still like longer hair on women.

Whatever spieces.
