Rule the universe with STAR TREK: DISCOVERY – DIE STANDING, July 14!

July 30, 2020February 1, 2020 by John Jackson Miller

Emperor. Exile. Secret agent. And… emperor again? One of the reasons I took the assignment that became my 2019 release, Star Trek: Discovery – The Enterprise War was because of my liking for the Mirror Universe sequence of the TV show’s first season — and my admiration for the bold move in bringing Emperor Georgiou into the Prime Universe. What, if anything, I wondered, would stop her from rebuilding her …

New Battlestar Galactica comic launches in October!

July 30, 2020September 28, 2018 by John Jackson Miller

There are those who believe… So began the opening to Battlestar Galactica, which debuted 40 years ago this month on ABC. I was one of the kids in the audience that night — and every week that followed that season.
