Wow, I think I'm the first one who rated & reviewed this (to boldly review where no man has reviewed before)--so I just wanted to say, the first issue of Boldly Go managed to meet my expectations nicely (they rendezvous without any Klingon interruption). The art is amazing, definitely an improvement from the Ongoing series (although I'm not going to say that the Ongoing series is by any means really bad, either, just that there's a lot of improvement involved), and I really loved Beyond (it really throw me deep into the Trek hell), so seeing where the crew went after the events in the movie is a big deal for me. I want it to be handled perfectly. And, I have to say, this issue delivers. I think it offers a chance for further character development, too--I would love to see how Bones is progressing under the command of the Tellarite, the CMO aboard the Endeavour, for example. But Kirk and Spock separated? The triumvirate not together aboard the same ship? That's almost heresy, but one I can accept for the time being.
I'm not going to spoil it for everyone, but the villain is really intriguing. I haven't watched TNG yet but I think I can kind of guess where this is going. This keeps me on the edge of my seat, I read it in one go, and I'm definitely waiting impatiently for the second issue.
Also, there's a cameo of Jaylah! That's all I'm going to spoil. I'm really loving this issue and this series so far.

I've been a fan of Star Trek for a long time and so to find this by chance was absolutely amazing. I immediately settled down to read the first issue of this, and this was a mistake. Purely because now, I want to sit and binge the whole series.
The artwork in this is stunning. We have our usual characters, the ones we all know and love, and this comic introduces brand new ones as well, ones that we get to see grow and develop in the comic as it goes on and I am so excited to see that.
Our crew are no longer together in this, as this takes place after Star Trek: Beyond (it has mild spoilers, I wouldn't read these if you haven't watched STB) and it's wonderful to see how this takes shape and where all our beloved crew are.
This issue is a wonderful mix of catch up and action and a brilliant start to a comic series. It's definitely caught my attention, and not just because I'm a Star Trek fan. This has a very intriguing story line and I really am hooked; I need to see how it's played out.
I am so excited to sit down and read through this over the weekend; I am so excited. A definite recommendation from me.
Reread: I just gave this a quick reread and I forgot how much I loved this series. It's brilliant. I would love to see a movie adaption of this story line, it's all done so well. Kirk's new crew are beautiful, and so good, Uhura is stunning, and everyone has grown so much. I love them all, and I love this series.
Thank you, Mike Johnson, for a whole new world of Star Trek

As always with these, decent plot, good fan service, horribly horrible art. I cannot emphasize how bad this art is. Also seriously, authors? The only character allowed to call McCoy "Bones" is Jim. That's it.

Pretty good set up with what happens after the third film. Good characters and nice developments. Like the second crew.

Solid start to what I'm hoping is gonna be a great series. While the Enterprise A is under construction the crew is spread out on different asignments & Kirk is in command of the Starship Endeavor. I enjoyed the previous series, but what I'm hoping for in this series is more in depth & longer story arcs. Oh & don't let the cover art fool you, Shasteen's doing the artwork & it's just about perfect.

The last three words of issue one sold me on this series...

Saturday May 6th was Free Comic Book Day 2017. I happen to be in a bookstore that was giving away some comics and had some on clearance. I picked up the free Star Trek one set in The Next Generation world and this one that takes place after the last movie releases on the Kelvin timeline with the new cast setting off for life post-Enterprise. I’m not much of a comic reader but I enjoyed this so much that I can’t wait to get my hand on the next five copies to find out what happens next. I’m not in a big rush, however, so I might check the local stores first before I download them all from the publisher’s website. I wouldn’t mind having physical copies of these but will settle for digital.
The story was quite good, the graphics a little less. I’m reading it for plot so it didn’t bother me that some of the characters looked a bit off, Uhura being the lest resembling the current actor portraying the character. Major cliffhanger at the end that sucked me in and frustrated me to no end that the comic was only 22 pages long. So it looks like I might be a new convert to these graphic novels even if it is just the Star Trek ones.

Absolutely loved this. The cliffhanger is heart stopping. Headed to the comic book store now to pick up the rest of the series!

Picking up after the events of
STAR TREK BEYOND
We now see the former crew of
The USS Enterprise
settling into new roles across the Federation
Kirk, Bones and Chekov( sniffle) are on temporary assignment
to the USS Endeavor
Spock and Uhura are on New Vulcan
Sulu is 1st Officer of The USS Concord
And Scotty has begun the unlikely
role as instructor at Star Fleet Academy
All is going well for our scattered family
and then of course all hell breaks loose
The Concord is attacked and destroyed
Rushing to their aid The Endeavor
Pulls Sulu from the wreckage
he relays the message from the
mysterious enemy
Resistance Is Futile
Of course all Star Trek fans
recognize the famous line as the
battle cry of the Borg
one of the great Big Bads
from The Next Generation years
How will Kirk and his crew fare
against an enemy that fought The Enterprise
of the future to a standstill?
Somehow I don't think
James Tiberius Kirk
can be counted out easily

An interesting start
An interesting start, I'm looking forward to reading the other issues. And a nice touch with the Concord's captain being Terrell. My only quibble is the minor fact that they're by the border of the Delta Quadrant, but travelling massive distances with no comment is just a standard part of the Kelvinverse.
