http://www.tokyopop.com/318.html Well, quite interesting - it is an effective way to commemorate the 40th Anniversary - as members of the original crew are either too old, too crazy (old Shatner), or dead (long live Scotty). |

Nice
 Happen to be a Trek fan myself, though you couldn't consider me a Trekkie. Captain Kirk in a manga format, huh? I'd like to see what Tony K. has to say about this.

Yes, I (as a Trekkie) own this. It's pretty meh, I've had it for for like six months and I've only read two first stories, it's still on my night stand. Reads from left to right right, art is decent, plots are decent... but there's no spark.

I actually really enjoyed it. Im a big fan of Star Trek: The Original Series myself, and I quickly slapped down the money for this thing when I saw it.
Pretty much the ultimate in nerdom.... Star Trek Manga. I enjoyed it. I was especially thrilled with the story arc about spoiler[the Borg, I thought that that was masterfully done, since the Borg dont show up till Next Generation, but the writer worked in their beginnings with Kirk.] |

I thought it was pretty clever, but it reminded me too much of Enterprise - gratuitous fan-service that ignores canon material/time-line where the only purpose is to recycle old story ideas because they aren't clever enough to come up with anything original. It wasn't offensively bad like Enterprise, it just wasn't anything new or exciting either. |

"Leader of the Global Manga Revolution"? What happened to the plain old "Manga Revolution"?  Despite TP's love of OEL, this is probably the last thing I'd expect them to release. Still, I'm kind of interested in picking this up not only because "top artists and writers from around the galaxy have gathered to create it" but because it actually looks pretty good

I am a huge fan of the original Star Trek. I have looked at the title a few times, but have been nervous to pick it up because I don't want anyone messing with my captian Kirk. Love the Shatner!!!!
 But people on here have given me good reason to think it's worth the dough. Thanks guys and gals!!!!
