Star Trek Comic Book Advertisement – Nov 1984

The old Blue Devil advertisement I ran the other day seemed to be well-received.  So I decided to feature another old comic book ad today.  Here is a Star Trek comic book advertisement (November 1984) from DC comics.  This particular ad ran shortly after Star Trek III: The Search for Spock hit the theaters.  I’ve always wanted to read the mid-80′s DC comics Star Trek issues;  I understand they were pretty good.  Final thought, look at the art in this advertisement.  It looks great!

    They are pretty good — I’m up to issue 20 of DC’s first series. The quality drops a bit after Mike Barr leaves, but I am hoping it will pick up again after some fairly weak, standalone “character” stories. The other thing I like about the series (at least, so far), is that, even after ST III, they kept modeling Saavik after Kirstie Alley (who, as Saavik, was pretty attractive!)

    “The quality drops a bit after Mike Barr leaves.” While true, this is not a sentence I would ever have expected to read anywhere.

    I’m up to issue #8 in my daily Trek stripping schedule myself.

    Anyone know if there are collected editions out there?

  4. Shag Says:

    Scratch that. I just broke down and bought the first 20 issues from Mile High Comics. They were cheap and Mile High is offering an additional 30% off. Sweet!

    I know the Mirror Universe arc has been collected, but you’re covered.
