some hot debate about trek, in the first hour

Today we’re heading back to Terrificon 2024 for a Star Trek: Strange New Worlds panel featuring Ethan Peck,Mr Spock, and Celia Rose Gooding, who plays Uhura.At the time, Season Two had wrapped, and fans were still buzzing over that very strange and very funny “Four and a Half Vulcans” teaser scene that Paramount had just unveiled at San Diego Comic-Con.Ethan and Celia took my questions and plenty from a packed room of eager Trek fans, talking about their characters, the evolving relationships aboard the Enterprise, and where the series might be headed next.And listening back now, with Seasons Three and Four in the rearview mirror, it’s fascinating how much they actually revealed ,sometimes deliberately, (sometimes almost prophetically) about stories and character directions that were still to come.And along with plenty of new podcasts, Word Balloon will also be celebrating Star Trek’s 60th anniversary, which arrives on September 8th .Sixty years to the day since the original series first premiered in 1966.

This is Part One of The Milestone Story, looking at the history, legacy, and continuing evolution of one of the most important comic book companies of the last thirty-plus years.We begin with Reginald Hudlin, filmmaker, producer, writer, and one of the driving forces behind the modern revival of Milestone Media.Reggie talks about his relationship with Milestone’s original founders, and how the company changed the comics landscape when it launched in the early 1990s.We also get into the challenge of bringing Milestone back for a new generation, his work on characters like Icon, Rocket, Hardware, and Static, and the balance between honoring what McDuffie and the original team created while finding new directions for the Dakotaverse.It’s a conversation about comics, representation, ownership, Hollywood, and why the ideas behind Milestone still matter today.listen to part 2 with Denys Cowan
