I felt as though I had been given a gift as I scanned through the zine and discovered this excellent color drawing of Kirk and Spock from Errand of Mercy. Can anyone do texture as well as this artist? The shine on Spock's hair. The folds in Kirk's shirt. The concerned expression on his face, complete with wayward curl on his forehead, (although depicted here as a loop.) There's also an unusual background. It appears almost as if there is a mat around the picture. Very striking. [1]
Gorgeous, gorgeous. Thank you, Shelley (and thank you Robin for wonderful art - printing in this zine). I absolutely love Kirk and Spock in Organia episode. I'll get to this ravishing "Ravage" story later, but this drawing is ravishing, too. A difficult medium executed so beautifully, but most of all, the soft, touching moment between Kirk and Spock. [2]

Not just art, but color artwork. A rarity for obvious reasons. But this picture demands no less, as it depicts Kirk and Spock from Errands of Mercy. They never looked better than in this episode, and of course this picture is a perfect compliment to the Errand story, “Ravage” which it accompanies. Kirk is obviously distressed in the picture, something we did not see in the episode, but which is a must for the trauma he underwent in “Ravage”. His hair is damp with perspiration and clinging to his forehead, further evidence of his physical and emotional state. As always, he has turned to Spock his eyes searching for understanding. Spock is intense, his look radiating concern for his human. Seeing this picture is enough to make you go back and re-read the story, it is that compelling. [3]
