Linkara: Time for filming Likara's cat: No, time for cuddles Linkara: Okay

Kirk: "We are enlightened, it is better to create than destroy, to make peace than war." Kirk 20 minutes before that "So anyway, I start blastin' "

" _Spock, I could kiss you!_ " " _Captain, not in front of the Klingons.._ "

9:01 " a million fan girls just started crying and they don't know why" giggle-snerk

I wonder if "Anton York!!" will become the Star Trek comic equivalent to your old "Granny Goodness!!" joke.

This video deserves 11 out of 10 for that adorable stinger of Chieri in your arms.

It just occurred to me again I’ve been watching this show for over 10 years now dear god

Star Trek: We’re in a weird reboot/prequel Legion of superheroes: ... You don’t even wanna compare to how many reboots WE got!

Temporal Eddie would be a great name for a casual time travellin' dude.

17:14 So this guy was the Star Trek version of the Emperor of Mankind from Warhammer 40k? Now this plot makes waaaaaaay more sense.

I really enjoy seeing Starfire and Cherry in the reviews, it just feels so normal now.

Time bubble? I prefer the term "Time-Traveling Popemobile Go-kart". Also, I love that last stinger. Such a cute kitty...

The first time I saw Vandar's collection of time machines, I was somewhat terrified because of how powerful some of their owners were on a regular basis.

If Star Trek can do crossovers with X-men, Green Lantern, Doctor Who, Legion of Superheroes, Planet of the Apes, and Transformers, then I want a crossover between Star Trek: TNG and Power Rangers: In Space.

"Anton York, 45th President of the United States!" that was too funny

Not watching every episode is grounds for immediate execution.

Me looking at the title card: OH GOD! ITS RATCHET-TRON ALL OVER AGAIN!

24:26 There WAS going to be a Transformers/DC crossover, but that got cancelled and now I'm very sad

I’d love a crossover between Trek and Gate where they’re both fictional shows in the others universe. Because that would be hilarious

I think it was implied in the epilogue that Flint lied to Kirk about not being a caveman because he was ashamed of his savage past.

Tom servo and pollo better be beside you the whole thing next week

I was expecting the Time Trapper to show up, but I guess an immortal caveman is fine, too.

10:50 We come in peace, shoot to kill, shoot to kill, shoot to kill. We come in peace, shoot to kill, shoot to kill, shoot to kill, men!

I love how kitty just gets cameos whenever they like

16:46 So, is Anton York going to be the new "Granny Goodness?" If so, I'm all for it.

And in other news. Linkara is defeated in the Contest of Champions by Chieri!

Thank you for putting the Cat footage at the end. It went from a Good review to a great one cause of the presence of Cat

Admittedly, the devices from Stargate that were actually supposed to be time machines in the first place aren't nearly as recognizable as the Stargates themselves and the Stargate probably fits better into the scene composition anyways.

With Star trek, time travel, and one of Linkara's cats wanting attention, it was a prefect opportunity to cosplay as Gary Seven.

With Kirk keeping his speech patterns and the references to Trek continuity, I think this is the first Trek comic you've reviewed that was actually written by a Trekie.

When are we getting the Star Wars/Star Trek/Stargate crossover we all want? And will the fire fight between Star fleet, stormtroopers and Jaffa lead to a battlefield where everyone is unharmed but the field itself looks like swiss cheese?

Shooting first was far more Zap Brannigan than Captain Kirk XD

Where was the time machine they bought at a yard sale? Also is Anton York replacing Granny Goodness as the surprise villain?

Never thought I'd see a Star Trek comic with the same ending as Sonic 06.

3:40 Man, Buzz Lightyear’s job was pretty brutal in the past.

How dare you insinuate that I don't watch every episode! I'll have you know that I have purchased every single lamp you have ever reviewed!

Wow I’ve been watching you for 10 years man I feel old 😎

6:15-6:21 ”The Durlans took our jobs!” ”They took our jerbs!” ”Durla-durka-durrr!”

“A million fan girls” more like at least 70% of all Star Trek fandom.

Gotta be honest, I thought the caveman was Wolverine for a hot second, and I really don't think even the crew of the Enterprise would be ready to handle a crossover with Marville.

Spock snarks with McCoy because he likes McCoy; he ignored Brainy's comments because, logically, cooperating quietly in order to fix the situation allowed him to leave brainiac more quickly

I so want an SG-1/Star Trek crossover, if only for O'Niell's reaction to the scene of Carter and Spock/Data (depending on Tos or TNG) explaining how everything is happening in the most technbabbly terms possible. Though I'd prefer TNG so we get some scenes of Teal'c and Worf hanging out.

A quick personal note: I feel that, well, STAR TREK is DC Comics while STAR WARS is Marvel Comics (and yes, I know MC has done both). STAR TREK is all quasi-idealistic visions of the future just as DC has the United Planets and Legion of Super-Heroes, while STAR WARS is all ancient space empires that keep falling under the thrall of bad guys all the time, which is Marvel Comics with the Shi’ar Empire, the Kree, etc., as well as borderline Warhammer 40k futures that nevertheless link back to heroic adventurous families with Kang the Conqueror and Apocalypse. 3:40 - Huh, I read this series, and don’t think I noticed the Starfleet “paratroopers” were DC’s Space Rangers. Thanks! 6:10 - I was going to suggest the Dominion was a reference to the Dominators, which I think also went by that name, but then realized the reference to shape-shifting… my bad. Would have helped if the mob had said “The Founders” instead, but still… 7:25 - Based on how everywhere they go, they get into some clusterf### with the locals and need their gear to escape and settle matters, I suppose it’s entirely logical that Kirk’s team would bring their phasers and whatnot even when visiting Earth. It certainly doesn’t seem like a bad idea at the moment, now does it? 8:10 - Tyr… oh, yeah, the Mohawk guy with the cyber-rocket arm from the Super Powers toy line. It’s weird what you miss from when you’re a kid, isn’t it? 10:30 - Glad to see this franchise crossover didn’t have the crazy out of sync body proportions like we saw with the X-Men characters. 11:27 - Yeah, that was pure Zap Brannigan attitude. Picard - actually, Sisko, to be honest - would have kicked him in the nuts for that move. 13:00 - Er, okay, Ruk’s neat and everything (after all, that’s Ted freakin’ Cassidy from ADDAMS FAMILY), but who and what is the alternate Mano? 17:55 - The skimpy outfits the female Legionnaires keep getting squeezed into aren’t much different than some of the costumes they actually wore from time to time. Honestly surprised that Saturn Girl isn’t in her ‘70s pink bikini costume for this. 19:45 - Hands up anyone else who noticed the Flash’s cosmic treadmill! 20:30 - Personally, I think STAR TREK TNG meets the Nicktoon-era Ninja Turtles with the Fugitoid would be more fun, but hey, to each his own. 21:30 - I remember being of a similar attitude about this. Also, it’s shown that Q was captured by Vandal Savage - who’s been retconned in the past as having a bunch of super-powers when he first became immortal but I doubt anyone worked on this remembered that and it doesn’t feel like it would allow him to imprison Q anyway so never mind - which might be more convincing if rather than our regular Q, it was a less-experienced Q. This could be the female Q or her and Q’s son, the suicidal Q, or maybe even Amanda Rogers (heck, the first and last one would explain why that cavegirl was chosen as a puppet), then it would feel less weird. A little. A crazy idea I’ve had is that, instead of using Q, an alternative that would have played up the DC side of things by having Vandar’s secret be a fifth-dimensional imp a la Mr. Mxyptlk or Johnny Thunder’s genie-bolt (the weird, lavender-colored globe that Q was kept it actually puts me in the mind for the Thunderbolt’s pen-container). The LSH have faced Mxy before, plus the entire team started off as just another part of Superman/Superboy’s mythos after all. Considering that Q is suddenly influenced by word game-constructed contracts, which is totally the 5D imps’ thing, that doesn’t sound as stupid as it probably does at first. Probably. 25:15 - Had to do a Google search to figure that one joke out. A MARVILLE reference… that explains it 28:30 - Awesome!!! 30:20 - Awwwwwww!!!

So now the only Star Trek crossovers that Linkara has left to do are "Star Trek/Planet of the Apes: The Primate Directive" & "Star Trek/Green Lantern: Stranger Worlds". :)

"They fight the cavemen best they can." God I love comics

I've been reading the beginnings of Legion of Super-Heroes, and I see a _lot_ of Star Trek influence, so this makes sense to me.

Even the time machine from Austin Powers is in there, top right, the swirling thing. Edit: Upon looking it up it's actually the Time Tunnel from the TV series of the same name. Never heard of it myself but thought I'd correct myself.

19:44, Wow, they even put in the Hot Tub Time Machine? I want a story to explain how that got in there.

Fact: including the cat interrupting shooting to demand pets was 1200% necessary, and absolutely worth it.

I believe the Legion is in it’s pre-Zero Hour continuity due to their costumes and the mention of Darkseid; it could be a reference to “The Great Darkness Saga.”

"And suddenly I'm thirsty for some damn fine coffee!" ...and HOT!

The only star trek one left: Star Trek/ Green Lantern 2.

So many time machine references. Dear lord some many...wait! Is that the damn Dagger of Time from Prince of Persia!?!?

Glad to see the Trek train still going at the moment especially with those announcements last week. I recall seeing this crossover at a store some time back and being curious by its premise. Ultimately decided to not get it because I don’t have a big enough connection to Legion of Superheroes. Most of my experience with the Legion is through that (IMO underrated) animated series that came out in the 2000s. Also amused at how this continues the trend of Star Trek crossing over with freaking everything.

I mean, Trelane *was* a Q, though since that was revealed in one of the novels, it is of dubious canonicity

Dammit Linkara, you're making me want a cat again

Congratz on releasing this on a monday, Linkara! Time to celebrate!

"This could've been better."

Star trek and legion of superheroes crossing over sounded like a crazy idea but you know what this is one crossover that i think could've worked at least in my opinion. :)

It's been awhile now, but I just want to say that I really like the new lyrics to the intro. I'm glad the music is still the same, & I agree with your reasons for the change. But I also wantto acknowledge how cleverly it was rewritten. Well done, sir!

A shame people would actually skip episodes based on the content. I make sure to watch every single one as whether I know a topic well or not, it's always a blast to see you review it.

I loved the remix of the Fatal Five, what cool character designs. In fact it is always those sorts of artistic shuffles that I love the most about these kinds of crossovers, borg-cybermen, yellow lantern klingons, and transformer enterprise, that stuff is always so fun to me. I am just picturing a Ghostbusters/Star Trek crossover that involves turning the warp core into a giant trap and them having to capture a planet sized ghost. Maybe make it the source of the Red Jack entity? Just picturing Ray and Scotty working out the mechanics of it, while Spock and Egon do the math, you have Peter and Kirk trying to fast talk the entities to buy time. And have Winston and Louis Tully possessed by Red Jacks trying to stalk down Uhura in the bowels of the ship.

No Star Trek style intro? I'm surprised. Also, can you do a review of the second Star Trek/Green Lantern crossover?

Those Cats have gotten big. Still remember when they were such smol Kittens.

Judging by the costumes it looks like the original timeline (pre Zero Hour). Sorry, I'm a major Legion nerd.

0:15-0:17: Cool. I hope one of them is more Batman Odessy. Those reviews are always fun. Also, 16:43-16:53: Cool variation on the Granny Godness joke, but I think I prefer the original. Come to think of it, I think it's been a while since that joke got used. Also, also, I think it's been a while since you mentioned Marvel until this review too.

The time machines I recognize at 19:33 - The Doctors and The Masters TARDISes - The Hot Tub Time Machine - The Sands of Time from Prince of Persia - The phone booth time machine from Bill and Ted - The Stargate - The Flash's cosmic treadmill - The DeLorean from Back to the Future - The Lazarus ship from "The Alternative Factor" - HG Wells' The Time Machine - The Time Tunnel As for the others, I don't know them.

Wow, the kitties got big! Remember the kitten reveal?

Surprised you didn’t go the other twin peaks route: the hooters like sports bar with the hunting lodge theme. Edit: aww kitty loves her hooman

Kitty: Okay, human, for petting me when I asked I will let you be my pet when my species finally conquers yours!

Whether it gets half the views of a Batman video or not, I honestly don't mind you looking at stuff like this Linkara. For one, it's Star Trek so it's probably still gonna have its share of people looking into it, as fans themselves and knowing what a fan you are, but personally, I find it really enjoyable whenever we look at the lesser stuff. The one-offs, the stuff not from the Big 2, and in regards to the Big 2 themselves, the lesser-known stuff. You might not be as much of an expert as some people purport you to be, as you admit, but that just means we all get to experience this stuff together, and anything that highlights lesser-used characters rather than the omnipresent main heroes is cool. Give a little more spotlight to the B-, C-, and D-listers, y'know? (Gonna be cool to see next week's, too; after all these years and all the clips, I was beginning to wonder if there was never any sort of comic-related material to MST3K!)

I was all enjoying the episode and then suddenly your cat shows up and I just melt with "Awww"

13:55 It would be interesting for a media to acknowledge that bit of "people can hate their on group" 19:30 Time machine references! 25:10 obligatory diss at Marville 29:44 I agree on hating the stories with the "they forgot everything and is like nothing ever happened" endings. they couldn't at least have a way to subconsciously remember? The Anime movie "Rascal does not dream of a dreaming girl" manages to feature time travel paradox plots that undo the current problem by leaving the clever trick of "their minds will subconciously remember it as dreams, so they will subconsciously recreate the evetns to keep the good parts of the timeline intact" (which it is honeslty a clever way to tie in concepts like time travel and astral plane). And only in the present remebring that dream Wasn't a dream when interacting with certain people

Well, the Legion are wearing the costumes they had during The Great Darkness Saga. That and the mention of recent events with Darkseid point towards this being the same version of that team

12:05 If Kirk met the Teen Titans instead of the Legion of Super-Heroes, he would have gotten a different answer to THAT question. XD

I missed last week, and *immediately* went to go watch it when Linkara gave that description. Jesus F*ck that was a head-trip.

Likes for Linkara. Comment for Kitty.

MST3K comic tie-in coming next week? Now that'll be interesting episode!

For anyone wondering who the intended audience was for this bizarre crossover…it was me, I am the intended audience. This is a galaxy-brain concept and I love it. Sassmasters Spock and Braniac 5 having the chance to snark at each other as they fight gave me LIFE. It’s too bad that the execution wasn’t perfect, but the fact that a team of comic book artists cared enough about Star Trek AND Legion of Superheroes to do a crossover fills me with such joy.

"Don't worry, we've got more Batman coming up!" Linkara update, or every single DCEU press release's opening line? YOU decide!

From the costume designs, they Legion actually looks like the pre-Crisis version

A Stargate-Star Trek crossover would be right up my alley, like holy crap. I have now a mighty need!

Kirk: good guys always win, even in the 80s

Aw that ending with you and Cherie was so adorable!

"Millions of fan-girls just started crying and they don't know why." LOL

I love how much of a nerd he is. He knows all the lore.

ya know its kind of a breath of fresh air that no characters waste time convincing others that they are indeed time travelers i know its not necessary in context since both groups have vast experience with both dimension hopping and time travel, but still refreshing hell i was tempted to be surprised that the Enterprise crew dont question the Legion's super powers but as Linkara said, they have met the X-Men

I always imagined that Trelane was Q as a child in my head cannon

I'm semi sure they mean the Dominion aliens from DC's Invasion! Storyline. I think they're in LOSH too.

Linkara's kitties are getting nice and big

To boldly go to infinity and beyond....or wherever spaceships go.

That ship was dragging and drifting. Lol.

10:51 - You’ve heard of “Han shot first”. Get ready for Kirk shot first.

Ooh, someone else who remembers Birth of the Federation. I liked to play as the Romulans, with the Federation as a close second. Edited to add that the part about that game that I most enjoyed, and which I thought made it most stand out from other strategy games, is that you could fight other factions without needing a formal declaration of war. It was very in keeping with the Star Trek universe, where minor skirmishes happen all the time, but the chance for peace is still there.

Kirk doing a Shatner impression makes me chuckle

Okay let's name the time machines. The Doctor's Tardis, The Master's Tardis, Bill and Ted's Phone Booth, Stargate, Time Bubble, the time machine from the time machine,The Flash's cosmic treadmill, Hot tub time machine, deloreon, Okay, which one did I miss?

Now I want these crossover comics, Star Gate/Star Trek, Doctor Who/Back To The Future, Star Wars/Transformer, Mass Effect/Star Trek, X-Man/Metal Gear Solid, Doctor Who/Star Wars, XCOM/Mass Effect, Batman/The Hardy Boys, Brute Force/Power Rangers. By the way Linkara, there's Wolverine/Badrock crossover comic and Deathstroke/Yogi Bear crossover comic that you should review!

also among the time machines was the "original" one from the H. G. Wells book :)

30:20 Awww, she loves you so much 💗

What generation of the Legion is this? Going by the costumes (Saturn Girl's in particular), facial appearances and Lightning Lad embracing Saturn Girl when we first see them, I'd put this as the first generation of Legion, some time around the Great Darkness Saga. As for the random comment about the Dominion, I've always taken that as referring to the Dominion that DC's Dominators came from who would both be current and close by. Though I imagine in a combined universe, it would have been quite confusing when the Gamma Quadrant Dominion turned up.
