Thanks for posting this info. I love these art sets, they given so much room for great talent to make a well trodden subject feel fresh. And so many different styles makes the sets like these actually interesting to look at, as all good sets should be!

'Star Trek Inception: The Cage' looks stunning, 'Phasers Set to Stunning' (featuring Mayim Bialik from Big Bang) is an unexpected and culturally well timed nod to Trek-dom, 'Revenge Is A Dish That Is Best Served Cold' is a fantastic montage, but my favourite is probably 'Space Seed' by Dave Merrell.

Have RA said if they will make these available outside of SDCC?

I saw the art this set was based on while at the Vegas show this weekend. Much of the artwork is great, a couple are kinda creepy. They sold posters of the art but I'm so tickled to have a chance to own card versions! I'll be posting the images to my website of all the cards tomorrow.

50 Years of Star Trek - History Channel Tonight @ 8p.m.

The special celebrates the phenomenon that is the Star Trek franchise from its origins as a primetime television series to the worldwide blockbuster it's become. Featuring actors and creators from all series and feature films from the original to Star Trek: Beyond, including Leonard Nimoy's final full interview. For both the trekkie and novice, 50 Years of Star Trek gives an insider's look at the highs and lows of participating in the franchise, including what it's like to wear that Klingon make-up. Cast, crew, and notable fans share their perspective on the legacy of Gene Roddenberry's groundbreaking vision of the future, and its impact on American history. Unique in audience culture, Star Trek fans are the first with their own name--Trekkies--who have spawned a cult following that has turned actors into icons of their generations while evolving Trek's bold look at humanity across the last half-century and beyond.
