Reactions and Reviews

These multi-generation Trek collections feature the crews of all four Trek series in crossover situations. In the three volumes so far, Voyager joins forces with the Enterprise and Enterprise D to stop the destruction of all, and have a rousing adventure with the Kazon. Crossover zines often do more to rationalize the inconsistencies and continuity errors of the multiple series than Paramount bothers with, so they can be great fun for readers familiar with the Trek universe.
