star trek (2022) #7

well, they didn't wait long to deliver exactly what i was asking for in my review of the first six issues! before moving onto the dramatic introduction of the next major plot point, the theseus stopped by deep space nine and took a breather, during which pretty much every character got at least a quick narrative check-in. there was even time for a whole page of jake & t'lir shipper bait! (okay, honestly their real goal with that was clearly reminding the audience that Something is definitely Up with t'lir, but still!)

i wouldn't have minded this respite taking up an entire issue or more, but i'm pretty happy we got this muchi at least.

also, not strictly related to this specific comic, but since this is the first time i've talked about the big, bad financial news coming out of idw, i just want to say that i desperately hope that idw doesn't go under, as they're responsible for some of my favorite titles going right now between tmnt and sonic, even though i'm hopelessly behind on both.

(okay, actually i haven't even started reading sonic yet, but i have the three hardcovers they've put out because idw always does a PHENOMENAL job with those, and i'm really looking forward to getting around to them eventually.)

Several people I follow are having discussions about how, despite marketing themselves on diversity and inclusion, Dropout has woefully little representation of trans women in their shows. And while I of course agree that they should platform more trans women given what their whole vibe seems to be, I don't watch Dropout, so I don't have a dog in that fight.

But it got me thinking about the thing that I do love that markets itself on diversity and inclusion and has started including way more trans rep in recent years, and how few trans women Star Trek has. (And before you come at me with "Dax!" Or "That one tng episode!" Or "Lal!" Or any other classic Trek example, or even Seven of Nine getting deadnamed, while I do love all of that, that's not what I'm talking about. It's great and has its place, but I am talking about explicitly transgender characters, not metaphors or characters where their gender works differently as a function of their species. And, if in a medium where actors are involved, played by trans actors.)

And the only trans woman I can think of with Trek is Roz, Chapel's girlfriend from the pride comic book who is such a small character she doesn't even have a page on Memory Beta. And that's so sad. We have got to get more trans women in Star Trek.

And because people are wilfully misinterpreting the Dropout discussions, to be clear, I am not saying I have a problem with the trans characters we do have. I love all of the nonbinary substantial characters we have and Gray. (Though it also sucks that Gray is the only trans guy we have, we need more of them too.) I am just saying we need more trans women in addition to those characters

so t'lir is an ORGANIAN holy shit

[reffitt-blog1]

I thought yall might like to know about T'Lir. They're a non binary Vulcan serving on the Theseus under Captain Sisko

no more characters who are nonbinary just because their species doesnt have gender. more characters that species dont have gender but still read up on human gender theory and realized they were still not into this shit

star trek (2022) #1-6

needs more t'lir.

no, but in all seriousness, the first arc of idw's star trek ongoing assembles an all-star cast of golden age star trek characters (plus scotty) and puts them under the command of a returning captain benjamin sisko. it's nice to see the objectively best captain back in the franchise in some fashion, though the franchise really does owe avery brooks a big payday in the near future imo.

the inclusion of scotty is a bit of a strange one imo. like, just let some people stay retired ffs. and i really do hope that after these first two arcs we get some more chill episodic stuff where there's a chance for more character beats. but be all of that as it may, it's nice to finally have an ongoing star trek series from idw so we'll hopefully be afforded the opportunity for the series to find that time.

These comics have actually been really enjoyable. The writing feels accurate to the characters and the story is interesting. I'm curious to see where it goes.

(also we're three issues in but jake and t'lir belong together and if anything happens to them i will commit a murder homicide.)
