Other series' exist, I can't argue that, but there really is only one real "Star Trek" to me: the one that has Kirk, Spock and McCoy. This comic does, so I'm reading it. The question is whether or not it's worth it.

It only makes sense that the original Star Trek be used for crossovers as there was far more fantasy and unexplained in ST:TOS than in the newer series so adding in people with super powers fits perfectly. Since the Legion is not as well known as adding in, say, the X-Men (which they once did - and I have the book to prove it).
What happens is that the Legion is coming back from a battle (somewhere/sometime) and something causes them to crash in an alternative reality. At the same time, somehow the crew of the Enterprise also find themselves in this same alternative reality. How? Why? Whatever. It's frakkin Jim Kirk!
This is just issue #1 so the story doesn't go too far past introducing the characters and the setting. It's enough to whet my appetite though. The artwork is well done, with likenesses actually like the actors in most scenes. I'm looking forward to additional issues.
