    There are a whole bunch of one-off crossovers with Star Trek in superhero comics. Another one I remember is a crossover of DC’s Green Lantern and the Kelvin universe Star Trek crew.

    These are reserve for a special kind of nerd, like myself, that knows both Star Trek and Green Lantern lore. The story would be lost on most other audiences.

      Haven’t seen that series. Interesting.

      I’ve seen a few times now people saying the Doctor Who crossovers aren’t that good.

        Don’t forget the X-Men crossover before Sir Stewart starred in the movies.

        EDIT: There is a TOS crossover but the one I’m talking about is with TNG. A one-shot called Second Contact which had a follow up sequel novel called Planet X (of course released by Pocket Books).

          I’d watch that movie where Stewart plays both roles. I’d really like one other character to point out the physical resemblance and both the Xavier and Picard characters blow it off “huh, I don’t see the resemblance”

            We’re gonna do the Paris/Locarno bit from LD?

            I’d like to bring Gene Jean into the mix just to make it uncomfortable… because of “The Perfect Mate”. Seriously Famke and Patrick played lovers in one episode and years later get a father-daughter relationship in multiple movies.

            “what are you talking about number 1? My legs work just fine. Oh, his face!? Eh, no I really don’t see any resemblance.”

              Quark shows up and just goes off on a rant about how all Hoo-mans look alike. Shran, Brunt, Weyoun and Tiron all agree with Quark and how most other life forms in the galaxy have more genetic diversity than Humans

        The real tragedy for Kirstie Alley is that the brain worms in Wrath of Kahn that make your mind simple, pliable, and open to suggestion by evil controlling men weren’t props. Alley suffered dearly in her later years of life from those.
