After the events of Talos (Which were detailed in the classic television two-parter, The Menagerie), Captain Christopher Pike and the crew of the Enterprise have been called back to Earth for a debriefing. Upon entering our solar system they are attacked by a suspicious spacecraft--could this episode somehow be linked to Talos'? And what eventually awaits Captain Pike?

Jag gillade berättelsen. Den unge radikale Pike ställs mot den mer mognare men ångestdrabbade äldre Pike, om än inte i samma scen men att karaktären utvecklas. Det känns trovärdigt och som en hyllning till en karaktär som hade kunnat bli det som Kirk sedermera blev - en ikon.
På minussidan ser vi tecknandet som görs aningen grovt samt en del dialoger som känns andefattiga. Men till största delen en mycket bra berättelse som borde läsas av er!
Very good story that makes the link between the events surrounding Christopher Pike, that happened on Talos IV and the next time we see him with his severe injuries in The Managerie.
