Not sure I'm a fan of this new art style.

If I am to be honest, you kind of have to not think about it too hard because the movie writers didn't think about how they were breaking the Borg's formidability and scariness as antagonists in favor of having a human face for sex appeal, and the TV writers never came up with any explanation, just as they also continued the framework that the Borg knew about Earth via time travel even before "Q Who" and yet still lost their capital ship at the hands of some puny unassimilated aliens in Star Trek: First Contact.

I never really saw where any more of an explanation was necessary, she was the leader of the Borg and she controlled the collective.

I guess we should count ourselves very lucky Star Trek: Enterprise never brought to fruition the season 5 shark-jumping concept of making the Borg Queen herself originate on 22nd century Earth.

And then the Destiny trilogy did exactly that.

Not exactly, but I understand what you mean.

Word Balloon podcast - at one point it seems to suggest that Issue #12 might be the last, which would make sense as it would mean the final arc overlaps with the first arc of Legacy.

Stil not a huge fan of the new artwork after seeing it across a full issue, but I guess it does work for the context and tone of the story.

Spoiler: Issue #7

It's been at least seven years real time since the founding of the Emerald Chain and they're already living up to their later reputation.

Admiral Sekhat has died, Bajor remains as a Federation member.

Deep Space Hope is a Ni'var station and is researching propulsion based on the Romulan Singularity Drive, but they've somehow managed to generate a psychic black hole that is forcing the Vulcan crew to sacrifice themselves to it.

Agnes goes Full Borg as the cliffhanger.

Issue #7 is weird and wild!

A very good issue. This series continues to surprise (me). Plenty of ideas!

I think these 7 issues so far have been more interesting than whole seasons of Discovery

Remember what we've got has only been equivalent to about 2.33 episodes though. And even Disco had at minimum 2.33 good episodes per season. If we got to, say, Issue #30, we may be able to accurately compare.

Some significant spoilers for the current arc in the #10 solicit - as well as confirmation #12 is the finale ...

Well, if you expected that cliffhanger in #8, you might want to share next weeks lottery numbers.
