    New Star Trek Comic Books Announced To Preorder! March 2024 Edition



    Star Trek #21

    Welcome to the Pleroma, a place outside time and space where god-level species have gathered to discuss the fate of the universe! It’s up to Captain Sisko and his valiant crew of the U.S.S. Theseus to persuade the gods to allow them to help repair Kahless’ unraveling of space-time-but will they listen to mere mortals responsible for their prophesied undoing?



    Star Trek Annual 2024 #1

    With no one but himself to blame for his brother’s sudden escape during the Klingon Day of Blood, Lieutenant Commander Data sheds his Starfleet uniform for an ensemble inspired by none other than Sherlock Holmes to track down Lore’s whereabouts… and figure out what sinister plans he’s been scheming. With the one and only Miles O’Brien as his Watson at his side, there is no mystery that Detective Data can’t solve!



    Star Trek: Defiant #16

    It’s now or never for the Defiant crew if they are to survive the parasitic infestation on the isolated Section 31 outpost Starbase 99. But with B’Elanna still connected to both Borg ally Hugh and the parasite hivemind, Nymira nowhere to be found, and a giant portal connecting their reality to a horde of hellish bugs just itching to burrow into each of their brain stems, things are looking dire at best. The third arc of the critically acclaimed series ends here!

    Star Trek: Defiant HC #2

    Still reeling from the battle on Qo’noS, Worf and the Defiant crew have been ordered to return to Starfleet headquarters. Despite their heroic actions, the Federation can’t celebrate the crew’s involvement in the fight against Kahless and the Red Path. In fact, they’re forced to discharge Worf and his crew! With the unspoken, unwritten agreement that they’ll operate with full Starfleet authority… completely off the books. Disavowed from Starfleet, Worf and his crew set out in their new roles as secret bounty hunters for the Federation. Their targets: untouchable criminals protected by treaties and alliances. They’ll take on villains from across Star Trek’s history such as an individualized ex-member of the Borg Collective, a time-traveling con man from The Next Generation, and an alien gangster from Sigma Iotia II. Collects issues #8-11 and the Defiant Annual.



    Star Trek: Sons of Star Trek #4

    The final chapter! What do you get when you cross three of the Federation’s most celebrated sons with a misguided god? An alternate reality full of lessons that may be just what the doctor ordered. But with Jake Sisko’s enrollment in the Pennington School, Alexander Rozhenko’s prison sentence, and Nog’s first Starfleet posting all fast approaching, they’ll have to move fast to defeat the Breen once and for all if they’re to convince Q Jr. to return them to their home reality.

    “City Without Men” Review

    City Without Men: Directed by Sidney Salkow. With Linda Darnell, Edgar Buchanan, Michael Duane, Sara Allgood. A young woman’s husband has been imprisoned for a crime he didn’t commit. In order to be near him to try to help him get his sentence overturned, she moves into a boardinghouse near the prison whose residents are the wives of inmates.

    Set 5 months before WW2 starts, a handsome harbor pilot is engaged to a beautiful school teacher, but in a horifying turn of events, he’s framed for bringing in Japanese spies from a strange boat off shore. e’s sentenced to prison where his would be wife is trying to visit him and she runs into our gal Glenda Farrell, who sets her straight about how to get into the prison to visit, then recruits to live in a house with other women that live by the prison to be close to their imprisoned men. There’s some shenanigans afoot with the women and they (without the knowledge of the wife to be) convince all their men to stage a prison escape with the help of the not-so-guilting harbor pilot, but through sheer happenstance, the sinking of a boat in Mexico proves that the pilot wasn’t guilty of being a spy ferry. There’s a couple side stories of a woman involved with another man while waiting for her husband to get out of jail, a drunkard lawyer and a washing company that all the women work at, which serves to fill out the world the ladies are living in, making it as real and vibrant as a black and white film can be.

    Released in 1943 while the war was still happening, i can only imagine how the film was received by the general public, but it has enough of the standard issue Hollywood style patriotism that I can only assume it was received well enough. It’s a find film, though my copy I bought from Amazon is is terrible transfer, with at least 3 different levels of visual issues, I see reel skipping from the original celluloid, vhs visual waves along the top, then a low bitrate encoding on the DVD. Combine that with the lousy audio, this wasn’t a great experience and one that I originally started with my wife in the room, but knew that it would take a dedicated Farrell fan to get through and while she’s happen to sit through the better transfers, this wasn’t one of them.

    I like the story though and am happy to have seen it.
