Gold Key Comics (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
Coming out alongside the show, the Gold Key-produced Star Trek comics didn’t have anything more than production stills and a few details on the show. As a result their comics are a bit off. And you’ll get to see for yourself as IDW releases a collection of the infamous comics. I’ve gotten to read a few issues and it’s as bad as you’ve heard.
Viz covers give me little to work with so often.

Every year YouTube grabs its most popular web famous folks and does a music video highlighting the fun stuff of the year. (So no political stuff. I’ll probably avoid Facebook’s more event-driven version unless I’m that curious. I’m not sure if it’s out yet at writing time.) See if you recognize anyone because while even I couldn’t escape the weirdness of “Pen-Pineapple-Apple-Pen” I’m just too insular to even know who anybody else is, much less follow them. Although I thought I recognized Andre The Black Nerd but I didn’t get a good look. And of course I know who The Rock is, but he’s not just internet famous.
They just found out the Summer Special didn’t have bikini Arcee.

What a day for Transformers comics with a lot of credits.
The Hundred-Year Christmas (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
Ah yes, those special ads that take the magic of Christmas and use it to sell you Christmas editions of stuff. Dinosaur Dracula has a few obscure or forgotten one. This link goes to this year’s entries but there are links to previous years. Have an ad-watching X-Mas. I guess.
Thankfully this does not include Arcee in a bikini. Not that I wouldn’t put it past them mind you.
Transformers Summer Special
Dreamwave (May, 2004)
This anthology features stories from the then-current Generation One and Energon comics Dreamwave were producing as well as two previous Transformers series, Beast Wars and the original Robots In Disguise, that they hoped to make into a full comic. Of course that didn’t happen since Dreamwave shut down soon after this.

Finally done with credits. Let’s review some stories.
Virtual reality isn’t just for young people in armor to fight monsters anymore. (Congratulations to those who get the reference.) While most people think VR is just for video games, there are those trying to use it for more practical purposes. And then you have the ones listed in the video below from The Richest.
