"Star Trek #15 (DC Comics 1989-1996, 2nd Series)"

WORTH CONSUMING!

From the cover, you can tell that the end of the Worthy’s journey is not gonna end well.

However, this volume is done quite well. Why couldn’t the entire 3-issue arc have been as good? I really enjoyed the ending (and no, it’s not related to that old joke Q: “What was your favorite part?” A: “The End”) This ending really captured the tribute to Lost in Space like I think Bill Mumy was trying to do. He should have just used the Lost in Space folks (the heck with Licensing!).

Worthy of Consumption.

"Star Trek #13 (DC Comics 1989-1996, 2nd Series)"

NOT WORTH CONSUMING

So Billy Mumy is writing the issue and the cover says “Danger, Danger!” what do you expect? The crew of the Enterprise meeting the Space Family Robinson, right?

Wrong. Dead Wrong. Instead we get this family of people called the Worthy, who look like trashy Andorians and have a plotline similar to the “Bread and Circuses” story in which earth gods travel to other planets only to often misuse their powers.  In other words, I thought this story stunk. What’s worse, I’ve got to sit through at least 1 issues of these “Worthy”. That in itself is the real “Danger, Danger, Will Robinson”.
