Hasn’t the Mirror Universe has been thoroughly exhausted?
Of course, I’m sure that within a year we’ll be seeing multiple comics and novels set in the Confederation Timeline. Ugh.
(Don’t get me wrong — I quite enjoyed “Penance” — but there’s only so much time I want to spend with evil or “dark” versions of beloved characters.)
Definitely. IDW has milked this one too much.
Hasn’t _____ been thoroughly exhausted?
Comics in a nutshell.
At least there hasn’t been any rumors of an MU TV show (though I guarantee you someone has suggested that to Kurtzman, et al.)! With that being said, the MU comics have been fun, if not extremely corny – which is par for the course with MU stories. The character designs have also been a lot of fun, especially the thoroughly ripped Jean Luck Picard.
Sooner read the Linus story. At least it would probably be upbeat. Wish Discovery was episodic then they could do a Linus episode. Maybe say what the Saurians planet is like.
Linus is looking at the Tyrannosaur skeleton like “Hey, I have one of these as a pet at home!”
