Will The Borg be back?

Are those comics any good? I've been curious about them.
I just started reading the Boldly Go and Mirror Broken series from IDW and love them both. Never been much into comics but the the Literary Treks podcast review books and comics and they rave about them so I thought I would give them a go.

I'm glad I gave them a go.
 
The Borg were a very eighties concept. I hope we don't see them again.

In what way exactly?

The Borg are just zombies + locusts. Both concepts are older than dirt and still very popular.
 
The Borg were about the fear of technological assimilation. We're waaaaaaaaay past that as a race/society.

The Borg are basic enough to stand in for just about any fear. They're a faceless, unstoppable force with window dressing. They can be climate change, or immigrants, or American imperialism, or runaway capitalism, or PC culture, or whatever.
