1997: STAR TREK UNTOLD VOYAGES LAUNCHED IN MARVEL VISION





From late 1997: More coverage of Marvel's STAR TREK line from the pages of MARVEL VISION, the in-house fan-zine (and successor to MARVEL AGE MAGAZINE).

STAR TREK: UNTOLD VOYAGES (the "the" was jettisoned along the way) was a five-issue run of stories, featuring Kirk and crew, set after the events of STAR TREK: THE MOTION PICTURE.  

The movie series, after the flawed first outing, ignored the possibilities of post-V'Ger adventures and a second "Five Year Mission" (at least enough time for Star Fleet to hire someone to redesign their wardrobe again)... leaving the way wide open for fans and licensed books and comics to fill the gap (The DC TREK run featured a one-off Walter Koenig-scripted adventure from this period).
