It's a weird request but if Paramount decides to not greenlight Paul Wesley's Kirk and Crew, I hope IDW does a Year One comic. (lemmy.world)

I get it strange because we have TOS comics which are great of course. But I've become quite attached to the redesigned Enterprise, the updated interiors and the new faces to our familiar crew. So it would be cool see what we could have been if a show was greenlit. Hell who knows what Paramount will do once SNW ends next year. They didn't sell off the sets, so there's always a chance that the new trek showrunner still does it. But IDW would be a good fall back.

I think the odds of a tv series are less than zero at this point, but comics would be a great fit.

    Though if the Paramount/Warner merger goes through I wonder if they'll move the license to DC, which will then be "in-house" for them. (DC is owned by Warner Bros. Discovery)

    Not that they would be any less capable of doing a Year One comic if they so desire. And until then IDW is kind of doing a Star Trek: Legacy-ish comic (or two) already, so I don't see why not Year One.

    I have to imagine IDW already has something in the works.

    Words cannot describe how much I don’t want another tv show in this same era

    I feel yah. I just wish we would have had more time with Thomas James McCoy. In a perfect world, year one wouldn't have even been a series pitch. It would have been season 6 and the final season of SNW

    IDW did Kelvin timeline comics during and for years after the period when those movies were a current concern, so I imagine this isn't outside the realm of possibility (assuming they keep hold of the license.)

    The new flagship series Star Trek (unable to read since my local shop didn’t have it on launch and their order hasn’t come in) is said to be the same idea for Legacy.

    I would have been happy to see a year 1 series, but NW season 4 took the interest out of that (except for the pretty good last episode). I’d be worried that they’ll just make more seasons of gimmick fluff - this week a talk show in Scotty’s head, next week Starfleet’s Got Talent.
