Holy crud.

John Byrne’s Crew is one of the best Star Trek comics runs ever. EVER. And it is just WALL to WALL fan service.

It follows the career path of Number One – and hardcore fans know I don’t mean Will Riker. I mean the first iteration of Majel Barrett on the Enterprise.

Basically five distinct episodes – but what episodes!

They are in keeping with the adventure of TOS, but really take advantage of the medium – setting the tales in situations that would be unfilmable even with an insane budget. Issue 5 is in a void!

And Robert April (and his doctor wife) are in it. How hardcore is that?!
