Looks like that has been taken down and replaced with Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, Star Trek III: The Search for Spock, Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home and Star Trek: First Contact. Hopefully they’ll add more soon.

This is from the latest episode of The Big Bang Theory entitled “The Wheaton Recurrence”. This is the first episode I have ever watched, and we only watched it because my wife hearts Wil Wheaton. We may end up watching more episodes, since we are both geeks.

The first issue is “Fool’s Gold!”.

Here is the description from IDW:
Captain Sisko and the crew of Deep Space Nine make their triumphant return to comics! When the station begins to be overrun by thieves, treasure-seekers, bounty-hunters and other assorted ne’er-do-wells, Major Kira and Constable Odo must find out why. Can they get to the bottom of it before the station’s new visitors bring things to a boiling point?!

It says Captain Sisko so I am not real sure when the comics are set and the IDW site didn’t make it real clear.

Be sure to check it out. Let us know what you think.

Hopefully you saw most of them, if not now that Star Trek is out on DVD it is the perfect time time to go back and watch the movie and look for them. Here are some of my favorites. These are in no particular order.

1) Captain Pike being in a wheelchair. Ode to “The Menagerie”.

2) A tribble when we first meet Scotty. Ode to “The Trouble With Tribbles”.

3) The Red Shirt dies when Kirk & Sulu jump down to the mining rig of the Narada. Ode to many episodes.

4) The Kobayashi Maru. Technically an Ode to Star Trek II, not the Original Series.

5) Kirk “befriending” an Orion woman. Ode to many episodes.

6) Sulu being able to fence. Ode to “The Naked Time”.

7) Chekov’s accent. Ode to many episodes.

What are your favorite Ode’s to the Original Series?
