You Should be Reading Boldly Gone

One of the funniest web comics on the internet is Kevin Church and Ming Doyle’s Boldly Gone, a delightfully entertaining Star Trek based cyber-strip. The comic follows the adventures of Paul Meredith, a Starfleet captain and a contemporary of James T. Kirk. Captain Meredith is an unexceptional officer who graduated in the middle of his Starfleet class and is decent at his job. In a Star Trek world filled with overachievers Captain Meredith is merely average and is frustrated that he cannot make an impression on anyone in Starfleet Command. Captain Meredith is surrounded by crew members who are much more highly regarded than him and he has a personal vendetta against James Kirk because the Enterprise captain receives so much attention and so many accolades. Only a few Boldly Gone strips have been published but so far it is wildly funny and I look forward to new ones when ever they appear.
