There was really no purpose for her once the trial arc ended, and that's painfully evident in issue 13 when she pretty much just ended up filling a job any other member of the crew could do. I would have preferred they ended her appearance with #12 and allowed her a proper send-off than waiting for executive mandate to lead to her sudden disappearance.Ambaryernohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07332627640809999733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3978834198689217453.post-90081629769070238492013-03-27T21:09:38.187-04:002013-03-27T21:09:38.187-04:00Those Early Voyages comics were the only Trek-base...Those <i>Early Voyages</i> comics were the only Trek-based comics I took a chance on and really enjoyed to any extent, since that particular subject matter (Capt. Pike and the original Enterprise crew) was mostly untapped up to that point. At times it made me wish that the first pilot of <i>Star Trek</i>, with its first cast, had produced a season or two of episodes. The only real quibble I had with the original concept is how the women were kept mostly in the background as far as their assertiveness--a problem the comic was able to push aside, for the most part.<br /><br />I'll have to take a look at the DS9 and Voyager comics sometime, which I never got around to sampling.<br />Comicsfanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10064955427593820783noreply@blogger.com
