This is a duplicate to I.Q.--Ratcreature 19:27, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

lord, I knew that goofy spelling was going to trip me up. Mrs. Potato Head 19:39, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
It would have made sense if this had been a TNG zine about Q...--Ratcreature 19:47, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
I'm thinking the Star Trek: TOS fandom isn't right. This is what I was working with: "I, Q" by Rod Summers. Gary Mitchell and Q have it out. Available from Bill Hupe." is from here, and it is a list of "Q" fiction. That, and there isn't a mention of I.Q. on the trekindex. Is that "Bristol Starfleet Registry" any clue? I'm not familiar with either fandom so am no help there. Mrs. Potato Head 19:53, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
The characters Troi, Guinan and Q are all Star Trek TNG characters and the ship in TNG was named Enterprise too. My guess is this is a Star Trek TNG zine. (Should this talk page be moved to the I.Q. talk page?)--Doro 20:12, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
Done. Good call. Mrs. Potato Head 20:21, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
It could also be TOS/TNG xover if it has both Q and Gary Mitchell. Too bad that the title on the cover is in the form of stylized graphic column elements. I mean, you can't really tell whether the stone between the I column and the Q columns is supponsed to be a period or a comma, but otoh I don't see any element accounting for a second period, provided that the stone with the second columns is supposed to represent the lover diagonal element of the Q. This is like title rendering via interpretive dance or something. But as a TNG zine the I, Q title does make more sense.--Ratcreature 20:31, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
Argh. I confused it with the other I, Q by Ann G. And there is also an I, Q TNG book. Not an easy zine to figure out. (I quite like Ratcreature's interpretive dance. *g*) --Doro 20:46, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
I'd like to revisit the moving issue (really I think I, Q is more likely here), also possibly a disambiguation because of that British show, which I think has a fandom, also we have a glossary entry for Infoquest which lists IQ as acronym for that.--RatCreature 21:49, 29 January 2010 (UTC)
