good call on the other aliens, I was able to scrape up images of the big-eyed doc and the long faced bar dude as well as Keenser and Alnschloss the Arex wannabe! Smile

I am always surprised at the shortage of detailed information on background characters. The Star Wars homebase always manages to give the most obscure characters rich and developed backgrounds, I wish the holders of the Trek Universe would delve as deep on every little detail.

maybe they could start a ST Reboot-Spotlight-Series featuring these new species.... could be Alien Spotlight III...

I thought a bit about possible Spotlight Series, how about that:

- Spotlight Xindi: a stand-alone miniseries featuring all races of the Xindi (yes, the Avians too!), maybe trough the times with the last issue being about the Xindi Reptilian serving at the big J
- Spotlight about non-humanoid species like the Kelvans, the Medusans or the Hortas (there already is one great short-story about them)

I really liked this little side-kick of Scotty, hope ST XII will feature him too... would be a nice addon to the ST Reboot-Crew

I really like the "salt vampire" one. I'd love to see that creature re-visited in an upcoming film.

Trekmovie.com has provided images of both covers and a 5 page preview! Very Happy

I gotta say this looks like it's gonna be a really fun issue and I'm really happy to see a TNG book coming out for once, especially one that's in the movie years.

Also, I've always liked Joe Corroney's cover...but what the heck is going on with Riker!? He looks like a 4 year old riding one of those spaceship rides in front of the Wal-Mart Razz

Bought 'Q' today...over all it was a very fun issue, which a Q story should be. The idea of Q possessing Picard's body I thought was a clever plot device. And I loved seeing Picard's floating head around Q, I doubt that'd work in an episode, but here for a comic, it was great.

Over all the art was good, very similar to Messina's I noticed. Maybe IDW is purposefully hiring people that can copy his style. But I thought it was still good, even with a couple awkward poses by Picard...at least no where near as bad as the way Riker looks on Corroney's cover Laughing

'Q' is definitely a great addition to the Alien Spotlight series.

I hope we find out soon what the next issue will be about.
