144: Evil James BondStar Trek: Mirror Images.
The Mirror Universe: there are many familiar faces there, but
the reality is very different from our own. Rather than the kind,
benevolent Federation we know and love, Earth is at the center of a
vast empire, ruled by dark passions and the desire for conquest.
There have been many stories set in this dark reality in the 50
years Star Trek has existed, each featuring familiar characters,
but with a barbaric twist.
In this episode of Literary Treks hosts Matthew Rushing and Dan
Gunther talk about the comic series Mirror Images. We discuss the
fun, characterizations, a focused story, something’s missing, more
points, how it wraps up, an interesting interlude and our
ratings.
In the news segment we discuss the news of DRM free Star Trek
books being available.
