I’ll be sharing an overdue post on Star Trek here in the next few months, phasers crossed.

Meantime, I have this. I was moved to scan, crop, and file it away three years ago while reading a bunch of old DC horror comics, and now I guess I know why. Yes, Strange New Worlds had already launched, but — although not exactly ripped from the screen — the panel didn’t quite seem to resonate with anything until this past week’s episode. I won’t explain since that feels unnecessary if you’ve seen it and obnoxious if you haven’t yet and want to. Spoilers are fine in the comments, however, as I would love someone to at least headcanon away the pink dress.
