(excerpt)
Also included in TO BOLDLY GO is a new foreword from Walter Koenig, in which he reflects on his days as Chekov and filming WRATH OF KHAN. The paperback also reprints interviews from the mid-1990's with William Shatner and DeForest Kelley from the British STAR TREK Monthly magazine, both of which appeared in print in the United States in the STAR TREK Communicator; a personal memoir from Mike Barr that appeared in the first issue from DC Comics; and full-color reprints of the covers from the first six issues, the first three of which were beautifully illustrated by George Perez.
This is Titan Books' first foray into reprinting the vintage STAR TREK comics from the 1980's into graphic novel format, and future volumes featuring the Original Series crew are promised next year, along with the first volume featuring the NEXT GENERATION cast coming later this year. For those of you who missed these tales the first time around, you'll want to pick them up. If you enjoyed these issues the first time around, you'll want to enjoy them all over again. I know I will!
