Responding to a distress call from a nearby research vessel, the crew of the Enterprise encounter a floating debris belt...which turns out to be both living organic matter...and hostile!

(Don't you hate it when that happens?)

To Be Continued...
Next Wednesday!

While not exactly original, it's a fun "alternate universe" take on the concept.

The characters aren't clones of the characters of the series' "inspiration", so there's some unique aspects to both plot and character interaction!
But there's enough in-joke "reference" to keep any serious fan entertained!

Wednesday Worlds of Wonder AIRSHIP ENTERPRISE "Infernal Machine" Part1a

We're taking a one-month detour from Lost World...

...to present a totally-different, yet amazingly-familiar "World of Wonder"!

To Be Continued...

Next Wednesday!

While not exactly original, it's a fun "alternate universe" take on the concept.

I do have a question, though...why is the captain named "Janus", a male god?
Yeah, I know "Janus Tibbs" is a play on "James Tiberius", with "Tibbs" being a reference to Sidney Poitier's three-appearance film detective Virgil Tibbs.

But, considering writer/artist Brian Denham used performer/sci-fi aficionado Janelle Monae as the character's visual model, why not call her "Janelle"?
BTW, though it initially-appeared in Antarctic Press' b/w anthology SteamPunk Tales #1 (2014), this is from Antarctic's Airship Enterprise: the Infernal Machine #1 which re-presented the tale in color!

CoronaVirus Comics / Monday Madness GRIMM TALES OF TERROR "Red World" Conclusion

We Have Already Seen...

...Scary, eh?

It's not exactly Edgar Allan Poe's "Masque of the Red Death" but an updating with some twists of its' own...

Plotted by Joe Brusha and Ralph Tedesco, scripted by Shane McKenzie, and illustrated by Antonio Bifilco, this take on Poe's "Masque of the Red Death" from Zenescope's Grimm Tales of Terror #4 (2014) is one of the wilder "re-interpretations" of the legendary horror tale.

But then, that's the sort of thing they do so well...
