The story overall is compelling and on a more detailed writing level, Saga uses an excellent balance of dialogue and narration to help fill the issue full of information without feeling overwhelming. If you havent had a chance to pick up Saga #1 yet, do yourself a favor and get your hands on a copy of this I think this will be a title talked about for the rest of the year. Im sure once youve had a chance to read this issue, youll be as eager as I am for the next chapter in this Saga.

Overall I was very impressed with Souled #1. I should note that although I did use the term “Science Fiction” in this review, this issue was also very full of action. I'm hoping the story continues going in the same direction as Issue 1 as it is a very enjoyable read.

Story wise " the first plot of this series has a definite ORIGINAL SERIES feel. Without getting too much into detail Kirk is found dealing with a crew mate (and a friend) who has developed symptoms that have given him what appear to be super natural powers. I'm hoping that IDW continues to go down the original series style path as I just can't see the crew in more diplomacy driven situation like much of later Star Trek plots were. The crew fit well in this first arc and this issue definitely has me hooked on the series. Now you may be wondering why I only gave this issue 4/5. The truth is that there are a few pages of setup that I found to be boring; however, I'm quite confident in Issue 2 we won't have that problem. Excellent story, excellent adaptation, excellent comic.

Overall, while I have been enjoying the new crew in action with Star Trek Ongoing, Issue 1 of Star Trek Legion of Superheroes edges out the series making it my new favourite Star Trek read its too bad Im getting on the boat just weeks after it wrapped up.
