ST comic caption contest #6: "Well, actually..."

[Ryan Thomas Riddle]

I just have to say, that's a surprisingly well-drawn profile of Troi in #3. Particularly considering that the art in DC's TNG comics was rarely all that good.

Say what you will, but I am quite fond of Pablo Marcos' art on the TNG comics. Like Tom Sutton, it wasn't deadly accurate on either likeness or depicting the Enterprise as we saw it week-to-week.

But there was something pulpish in Marcos' style; a throwback to the science-fiction comics of the 50s and 60s that I quite enjoyed. It was a unique vision of Trek through a particular lens, much like Tom Sutton's interpretation.

Ensign: Here's your second cup of coffee, Captain.

Picard: Outstanding! Great work, Ensign!

Riker and Troi, thinking: That's strange. The Captain NEVER has a second cup at home...

Us whippersnappers think it's an Airplane reference.

^ Heh, LOL! I forgot about that!

Billy, do you like movies about gladiators?...
