Welcome to Star Trek: Spider-Man!  It's been two years, and I'd say things are going great.  This idea had been rattling around in my head for a long time, and now it's on the web for all to read, for better...or for worse.  Spider-Man on the Enterprise-D.  Now how does that work?  Well, as Jonathan Frakes once said about the transporters, "Very well, thank you." 

In all seriousness, this is a reboot of both Star Trek and Spider-Man which puts Spidey (forcefully!) into the Star Trek universe.  Peter Parker started as a Cadet on the Enterprise.  He was bitten at Farpoint Station and got his powers, still kept them a secret and has fought some of his villains on the ship as well as planetside.  Captain Picard thinks he's a menace, as well as Admiral Jameson, who talks with the Captain on a regular basis.  Peter, on the other hand, was promoted alongside his friend Wesley by Picard, and is now an acting Ensign. Jameson has also given him the job of capturing images of Spider-Man in action whenever possible and finding out whatever he can about him.  And Betty Brant is on the bridge, acting as the liason between Jameson, Parker and Picard.

I've been alternating between rewrites of comic book issues and revisions of TNG scripts, and so far things have gone pretty smoothly.  Just a few major changes to the plotlines of episodes or scripts, but nothing that affects the following episode.  This year, though, that'll start to be different.  How long, after all, do you seriously think I could cram these universes together without them clashing?  This year we'll see some crossovers thrown into the mix, because I'm going chronologically through Spidey's original stories.  He's appeared in issues of Strange Tales and Avengers, and those will be included as Spider-Man issues here.


2013 promises to be a huge deal.  I expect to introduce Daredevil this year, starring in his own title aboard Deep Space Nine.  The problem is, he starts out there while it's still Terok Nor.  I'm excited about it anyway.  As soon as I catch up on last year's work, we'll see what this year holds.  Stay tuned!

Episode #2 of Star Trek: The Next Generation (guest-starring Spider-Man)--"The Naked Now"

Episode #5 of Star Trek: The Next Generation--"Where No Man Has Gone Before", featuring Peter Parker in a big way!
Issue #6: Spider-Man vs. Doctor Octopus!
Episode #6 of Star Trek: The Next Generation--"Lonely Among Us"--where we can see that Spider-Man has become an undeniable facet of the world of Star Trek!
Issue #7: Nothing Can Stop...The Sandman!
Episode #7 of Star Trek: The Next Generation--"Justice"--featuring Spider-Man and Betty Brant in a MAJOR way!
Issue #8: Marked for Destruction by Doctor Doom!
Episode #8 of Star Trek: The Next Generation--"The Battle"--with recurring reminders that Spidey is in this universe!

Issue #9: On the Trail of Spider-Man!  Adapted from Strange Tales Annual #2!

Episode #9 of Star Trek: The Next Generation--"Hide and Q"--with an important (brief) appearance by Spider-Man and lots of references!  The first time Q has seen fit to study Peter since Farpoint Fantasy.  Not to be missed!

Issue #10: Face To Face With...The Lizard!  Adapted from Amazing Spider-Man #6, this brings The Lizard into Star Trek with a BOOM!  Enjoy!

Episode #10 of TNG: "Haven"--with not much editing, but Brant is in all the bridge scenes.
Issue #11: "The Return of the Vulture"!  This time, Spidey faces off against the genuine article.  It's pretty much directly adapted from the comic, with some Trek flavor.
Episode #11 of TNG: "The Big Goodbye"--edited only minimally, with Brant appearing on the bridge.
Issue #12: "The Sandman Strikes"!  The Human Torch gets all the action this time, while Peter deals with his personal life, and Q returns!  Lifted from Strange Tales #115, it had to be beefed up a bit with material lifted from Untold Tales of Spider-Man #3.
Episode #12 of TNG: "Datalore".  Not much is changed.  Just added Betty's name to the bridge scenes.
Issue #13: "The Terrible Threat of the Living Brain"/"Spidey Tackles the Torch"!  The second year of stories officially ends, and changes are in the offing!  Peter Parker's bold confrontation with Flash Thompson in ASM #8 shows a radically different outcome, and the Living Brain is defeated without Spidey's help!  The implications are staggering!!
Episode 13 of TNG: "Angel One".  Not many changes, so this is an uneventful beginning for Year Three.
