Neat!
The book that appeals to me most is Red Shirts, if only because I've really enjoyed Cantwell's writing on the Defiant book. The premise sounds like it could be a bit of a slog, but hopefully it's not just about seeing these characters eat it.
I guess Voyager - Homecoming is geared towards all the fans who found "Endgame" to be an unsatisfactory ending to VOY. The Bridges' work I'm mostly familiar with from their contributions to Star Trek Adventures.
Honestly find it a bit difficult to muster up any enthusiasm for an SNW comic. I'm not at all familiar with Thompson's work -- looks like he's done a lot of young reader books and Star Wars stuff for Marvel -- but I'm immediately put off by the adorable robot sidekick idea. I'll still give the book a chance, but I'm not going to go in with high expectations.
It really does sound like a spin on the Suicide Squad or, dare I say it, Section 31 premise.
It really does come across as a Suicide Squad riff. Which I guess is kinda what Cantwell's Defiant book has been, except he's not able to kill any of the characters, because as opposed to DC's third string jobbers like Heatmonger and Reactron, Defiant features Worf, and Spock, and B'Elanna Torres.
