Spoilers Star Trek / Green Lantern "The Spectrum War"

[Villordsutch]

With another Trek Crossover arriving I've picked it up and given the first issue a look over.

My review - http://www.flickeringmyth.com/2015/07/comic-book-review-star-trekgreen-lantern-1.html #TheSpectrumWar

 

[Christopher]

So does Kirk's shirt make him immune to Green Lantern powers?

 

[Idran]

Well, until it's inevitably ripped at least.

 

[Villordsutch]

I'm expecting this in Issue #2

 

[Christopher]

Ripping Kirk's shirt just makes him more powerful.

 

[Mike Farley]

Considering how often NuTrek characters change their uniforms in the movies I'd say GL has a decent chance.

 

[Elias Vaughn]

So does Kirk's shirt make him immune to Green Lantern powers?

Only the female Lanterns.

Omigosh! So glad I'm not a cover completist! 26 different #1 covers are out there!

Gotta love retailer-exclusive variants.

Seriously, though, we now live in a world where Neal freakin' Adams has drawn the Star Trek characters thanks to one of those covers. Neal Adams!

Yes! And it's one of the better covers. But isn't this the second time around for Mr. Adams? http://www.startrekcomics.info/art/pr25.html

I enjoyed this well enough. A little "light" in terms of the content, but it was fun. A really solid tie-in.

 

[Malaika]

I've read it and thought it was fun
Sure, I'm not an expert when it comes to the green lantern so this might limit my enjoyment a bit but it's fun

 

[Villordsutch]

Part three of The Spectrum War arrives and it's a bit of a stormer!

Oh god, it's nutrek and hal jordan

gimmie shatner/kyle, then we're talking

 

[mattman8907]

Cool to see Commodore Decker if it was just for a second.

Not a big Power Records fan, are you?

[Sto-Vo-Kory]

I still don't understand how the orange lantern ring didn't shoot straight to Ferenginar. Romulan power-mongers have nothing on an average, typical Ferengi's greed.

The latest issue has a nice tip-of-the-hat to the director of Star Trek Beyond.

 

[Elias Vaughn]

Lantern Rings don't seek out the most powerful emotions in the universe. In general, they just search the nearest space sector for a suitable replacement. Ferenginar is likely just too far away.

I must admit to being a little tweaked by Hal stating that he and Kirk are the same rank, when a Naval Captain and Air Force Captain are not equivalent ranks. As well, there's that weird moment when Hal calls the Enterprise a "starship" and Kirk says "flagship, actually" which just seemed super odd.

Nitpicks, I know. But they stood out to me quite a bit.

It's a pretty common mistake - I didn't realise the difference until I started reading the Sharpe books, and I didn't truly grasp the massive amount of power a naval captain had until I read the Hornblower books.

Also Hal is an idiot so it makes sense that way too
