The Original Series is my favorite show of the Trek franchise. I imprinted young when I developed a crush on Captain Kirk at eleven. At it's best it could be amazing, and featured scripts by science fiction talents such as Theodore Sturgeon and Harlan Ellison.

These are two of the earliest issues, and both are strong ones. "Where No Man Has Gone Before" was the second pilot, the first that features both Spock and Kirk and it's interesting to see how they related to each other early on. "The Corbomite Maneuver" is a favorite episode of mine. For one, it features a classic Kirk bluff, but it also features some of the best qualities of Trek--the spirit of wonder in exploration, the delight in diversity. Both are very watchable and enjoyable episodes. ( )
