Komikon 2009, Star Trek spam

Uhhh...I spent more than a meant to at Komikon today. I was planning to just look around and pick up three or four indie comics, because I'm saving up for a camera. But I'm such an easy sell that I ended up with a lot more. Seriously, as long as you look at me and tell me about your comic, I will buy it. Even if it sounds like something I wouldn't like. Even if the art is all squiggles. I'll give anything a chance.
There were a lot of people at Komikon this year, I was surprised and happy to see. There were even some cosplayers. It was kind of crowded and hot but the atmosphere was fun. I didn't stay long because I got paranoid about being looking at weirdly, you know? Like, who's this loner girl roaming the booths at Komikon. Nyahaha. (I ended up going alone because my sister reneged on our plans.) Anyway, I'm glad I still went because now I have indie stuff to read! I love that people can share their ideas and their art at cons like this. Even if the work is god-awful, the fact that someone produced something out of their own creativity is something that is great and needs to be fostered.
So. How about the some Star Trek spam?
Where No Man Has Gone Before
For decades, dedicated fans of 'Star Trek' have postulated a Kirk-Spock romance. A look at 'slash' fiction, 40 years later.
The Star Trek Movie Cheat Sheet
With the most amusing haikus!
Has Star Trek Lost Its Moral Relevance?
Interesting. I was only old enough to catch The New Generation, but the discussion on the original movies has me wanting for a (cheap) DVD boxed set to watch. (As I have no harddisk space for downloads.)
Also, the cast has the weirdest interviews.
Yes, I'M THAT GUY. This guy, he is O_O (!!)
When he asked about the love triangle I was like, "What? Kirk/Spock/McCoy was intentional?" *headdesk*
I know some of you out there used to watch Lizzie Maguire! Hahahaha!
