4.0 out of 5 stars New Trek reimagines Classic Trek, 3.5 stars...
Reviewed in the United States on August 5, 2013

I wish I'd discovered the existence of IDW's comic series continuing the adventures of the Enterprise crew introduced in the 2009 re-boot -- it would've made the long wait for this year's sequel Into Darkness slightly more palatable. *wink* This first volume contains two stories, both based on episodes from the Classic Trek series -- "Where No Man Has Gone Before" and "The Galileo Seven." While my knowledge of all things Classic Trek is minuscule when compared to my love for the J.J. Abrams-helmed reboot, I love the idea of revisiting old tales and giving them a fresh spin with the new faces of the franchise. Therefore this post will be limited to my impressions of the stories as is, as I'm not yet in a position to compare this volume to the stories in their original, scripted television form.

The first story, "Where No Man Has Gone Before," is an excellent showcase for a still-green Captain Kirk to adjust to his new position and responsibilities on the Enterprise. There is some tension between his old, fun-loving Academy friends and his new crew mates, and Kirk's attempts to reconcile his well-known party-boy persona with his new responsibilities feels very much in keeping with Chris Pine's portrayal of the younger, brash Starfleet officer. The story ends on a fantastic note for fans of the Kirk-Spock friendship, as the ever-logical Vulcan responds to Kirk's difficult decision with an unexpected overture of friendship -- I loved that! The second story, "The Galileo Seven," features a more assured Kirk and instead focuses on this more human incarnation of Spock and his struggle to relate to and command respect from his wholly human subordinates. Anytime Spock is tested, pushed outside his comfort zone I'm going to love it, and this story delivers, including the Vulcan reaching a welcome accord with one wryly cynical doctor. :) It's nicely-done tale showcasing Spock's leadership skills and Kirk's loyalty to his crew.

Featuring gorgeous, detailed artwork, this volume not only fulfills my need to see more of the New Trek crew between their film appearances, but leaves me more eager than ever to continue my exploration of the Classic Trek television show.

though not required reading, this comic is fun to read just to fill in some of the blanks between the first and second movie. Though some of the comics follow original series storylines, its interesting to see the slight difference with the new casting and alternate universe.

plus, not gonna lie. Though I love the original Star Trek casting, I also love the new alternate universe casting; so seeing them in comic book form is fun and exciting.

I purchased this book thinking I was getting a paperback of the newest Star Trek story. Did not realize it was a comic book and not the storyline I expected. I have not shopped much at Amazon and have learned a valuable lesson for the future. Always read the full description (this one did not say it was a comic book) and all the reviews. Others were disappointed by the fact that it was a comic book and not happy about the storyline. I just usually check to see if the seller's rating is good and thought that indicated quality. In this case Amazon is the seller, so maybe people just complained and either returned the item or kept it as a lesson learned. I am sure I will enjoy the book because it is about Star Trek, but over $11 dollars for a comic book--ridiculous.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great for new fans, average for longtime ones
Reviewed in the United States on September 22, 2014

I'm a new Star Trek fan. After i watched the two JJ Abrams movies i went back and watched all of the original series episodes on netflix.

I enjoyed the movies enough that i liked the idea of keeping the characters going with a comic series.

This volume is supposed to tell stories from the original series but with a new spin that uses the new versions of the characters. The main problem with the book is that the stories told here are almost exactly the same with very small differences.

BUT if you have only seen the two new Star Trek movies and haven't seen the original episodes then this is perfect. I would lower it to three stars if i was talking to a long time star trek fan.

just an aside, IDW handles the retelling later in the series much better than they do here.

The classic Trek stories that I grew up with and love with all my heart, reimagined with the JJ Abrams universe twist.
Honestly I think paramount/CBS really missed the mark when they didn’t reboot some of the classic old trek episodes into modern day movies. They have the perfect excuse for doing it, trek fans would pay through the nose for it, and I think new fans would enjoy it as well. It’s too bad the owners of Star Trek don’t know how to manage it...
at least we got these awesome comic books.

Having managed to get Gary Mitchell and Lee Kelso to join his senior staff, Captain Kirk to discovers a messenger beacon from the 'S.S. Valiant', which warns of imminent disaster at the Galactic Barrier. Following this, Spock takes command of a shuttle mission which goes terribly badly, endangering his Away Team.

The idea of rewriting the episodes from the 2009 timeline reset should have been very bad, but it works quite well. The changes are interesting, the artwork is good and the rewrites show how relevant the original 'Star Trek' still is.

Adapting the original series episodes with the "new" crew may seem like heresy to some, but this collection from IDW breathes new life into these stories.
Featuring "Where no man has gone before" and the "Galileo 7" it's a slim volume but well worth checking out, the re-imagining updates some of story elements for a modern audience and makes them fresh whilst still remaining faithful.
Characters react differently and in the case of the first story a certain character is missing altogether, but it didn't matter as the the teleplays are adapted so well and suit the new interpretations excellently.
Even if you only try this out of curiousity as I did, you'll be pleasantly surprised at how good this is.
Hopefully further issues will continue to build on the new movie continuity without falling foul of it as DC did in the 80's.

I ordered the product as a little gift to myself, as it was on offer. I shopped around online and it was the best deal available. The product arrived promptly and in good condition. The stories and artwork were of a consistently high standard throughout, spinning exciting new and surprising tales from original series season one episodes. The characterization, both in terms of likenesses and writing, were all well defined and fitting. Well worth a read for anybody who loves the original series of Star Trek or the J J Abrams movie / alternate timeline. Highly recommended.

3.0 out of 5 stars Kirk and the amazing colour-changing eyes...
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 30, 2012

Received the book this morning, read it through in half an hour and I did enjoy it overall. Nice comic style, good short stories. There were a couple of points that really bugged me though...

1. Kirk's amazing colour-changing eyes; one page they are brown (and clearly like Shatner's NOT Pine's) then the next they are blue. It was like the artist would suddenly remember who he was suppose to be drawing and would correct it, then forget again on the next page!!

2. Particular emphasis on the Spock/Uhura relationship - I want adventure and space travel (and I want a stoic, seemingly emotionless half-Vulcan, not a sappy romantic, happy to suddenly show all emotions right from the off half-Vulcan)...though that isn't so much the comic, more a personal opinion about the whole reboot!

Anyway, good comic but it's not a keeper for the collection...(will be putting it up for sale this afternoon!)
