Great as usual, love her pose especially. Well and the colors. And the drawing in general. Can’t wait to see the movie.

Yeah, and it always amazes me that there is breathable oxygen and just the right gravity also. ;) Btw, nice pic! And Star Trek ROCKED…did it not?

thanks guys! i’m glad you liked my little review (and drawing!)- i hope it’s helpful. :)

i think i need to retract one of my comments i made though about the danger our protagonists are in. after seeing star trek for a second time (which i wholeheartedly recommend in imax if you get the chance)–and enjoying it just as much a second time–the alternate reality they are in was much more clear– meaning, i guess, that anything could happen. this article i found further hit this home:

would abrams and crew consider killing off a core trek character to further emphasize this? i kind of both want and not want that to happen.

Not only the planets are always a rocky terrain, the aliens are almost always humanoid with a) wrinkly head, b) interestingly shaped eyebrow ridge/ raised patterns on forehead/ head. Limited budget on the prosthetics and makeup I guess ^^ The non humanoid ones are either gaseous clouds or invisible, so it’s cool to see really, REALLY alien looking aliens in the movie.

Your review is spot on! I find it a tad trivial having to stake out the Star Trek Countdown comic for back story on the villain, but it’s altogether a nicely written comic and an awesome story within the medium, so I’m glad for that. I’m probably catching the movie again soon. It’s kinda addictive!

I’m really happy to hear this review Mike. The few advanced opinions of the movie were that it was trying too hard to be the next IronMan, and that Abrams (who was never a fan of Star Trek) was changing the major undertones of the story. I’m happy to hear a Trekkie was satisfied with it. I just might have to go see it. :)

Very nice work, Mike.

I’m seeing Star Trek on Tues and as a pretty diehard trekkie (though not so much for the original series) I have been dreading a reboot and really thought that a lot of the timeline and stuff was going to be reimagined. Your review gives me hope!
