...you will not want to miss this. Some of you may have seen me talk about this over on the gravyboy webpage, but I wanted to give it another mention. I think IDW has the talent and the resources to pull of what will probably be one of the most fun Star Trek comic book mini-series of all time.
From Newsarama:
| Quote: | While Starfleet personnel of the 24th century view Klingons as their allies, in the Star Trek universe of Captain Kirk’s time, the Klingons were always viewed as being on the wrong side of their struggles with the United Federation of Planets. As a species, they were allegedly responsible for some reprehensible acts (resulting in some classic TV episodes and movies), but were they really in the wrong? Or did they just not have a fair chance to present their side of the story?
Starting in April, they’ll get their chance. Star Trek: Klingons: Blood Will Tell is a new, five-part miniseries that will finally give the Klingons their due. In this special miniseries, we will see five historic Federation-Klingon incidents revisited through the eyes of the Klingon people. After this miniseries, you may never be able to look at episodes like “A Private Little War” or “The Trouble with Tribbles” in the same way again. These stories, viewed from the Klingon perspective, will explain much more of why the Klingon Empire functions the way it does. |
and...
| Quote: | | And issue two will, at long last, examine the result of Montgomery Scott’s beaming of thousands of tribbles onto a Klingon cruiser | .
even more...
| Quote: | | To herald this special event a bit more, the first issue of Star Trek: Klingons: Blood Will Tell will be offered with a unique variant—the issue will be available in a standard edition or in a special 40-page Klingon Language Edition, accompanied by the original script in English to aid translation. |
Now that is the coolest thing I have heard in days. Anyone else excited? |

I believe this is where the phrase "Tribb-B-Q" will be coined.
DEFINITELY looking forward to it. |
