    The only problem with that is that the word "Nacelles" is so hard to work into a certain Sir-Mix-Alot song.

    Is the extra 'I' in the third panel meant to be there?

    nothing like the nacelles of the classic Galaxy class starship this is a rather unique but great comic, the nacelles of a Sovereign class Enterprise are bigger but nothing about those classic nacelles of the NX enterprise or Kirk's enterprise.

    this makes me think of special fan art with a chart of the fuckablity of the nacelles of starfleet and all starships, just think about the klingons and romulans i am getting ideas now

    I don't know what nacelles are and I don't believe I want to find out.

    I've only seen pictures, but that was goddamn incredible.

    The drool coming out of Tychos mouth in the first panel is glorious.

    STO's 1701-F might not be the most doable ship in Starfleet, but it's clearly a huge slut, just flying around Tau Dewa with a butt plug.

    At first I was going to roll my eyes at Tycho being weird, but then I found myself agreeing with him and Gabe...

  • BolerBoler Registered User regular
    The fact that the oculus rift reminds me of star trek visors somehow makes this more fitting.

  • Skull2185Skull2185 Registered User regular
    Also, Panel one has both Tycho's hands up. One of em has been... lowered in the second panel. And Gabe is just standing there talking to him like "Oh this is normal"...

    This comic could have been one panel long and I'd have still been happy with it.

    Gabe's face in that last panel is a total gollum face

    He looks like he's about to go chomping down on some fresh wriggling fish

    As I strode into main engineering, the warp core began purring like a kitten.

    "Intruder alert", the computer whispered huskily.

    Somewhere on the deck, a Jefferies tube opened.

    "Take me."

    The night is young.

    Yeah, that's a little odd, but fairly well done and it's not the Enterprise's maiden voyage so not too creepy.

    As for the "real" ship - just like Doctor Who - your first is your favorite so that's always going to be the NCC 1701-D.

    That's about right. For me, that's the original-cast movie refit Enterprise, from The Wrath of Khan. Although technically, that would mean the first Star Trek ships I ever saw in exterior shots were Klingon battlecruisers.

    If Gabe likes dem Nacelles he should try the Constellation Class.
