Comics Continuum have posted a short interview with Joe Corroney in which he talks about a new TNG comic series he is working on. He says the following:

I’m working on a new Star Trek: The Next Generation series for IDW Publishing. I think it’s just been announced; It’s a new series that features the TNG crew against the Borg, it’s the return of the Borg. It’s a sort of finale for The Next Generation in a way; it’s sort of a sequel to the last Next Generation movie (which was Nemesis), so we’re going to see that crew a few years down the road, with the return of the Borg.

Sounds, from that brief description, very much like Destiny. Are IDW doing their own version of the end of the Borg? Or even a comic book adaptation of Destiny?? I doubt we’ll find out very soon, as the TNG crew are already busy battling the Borg in comics in the Doctor Who crossover Assimilation², which doesn’t finish until December. A new Borgy post-Nemesis comic though, sounds exciting whatever it is!

Amazon have added a new listing for a book called Stuck on Star Trek. It’s a hardcover from Universe (the new publisher of Star Trek calendars), and has just ten pages! Currently listed as the author is Joe Corroney, long time IDW cover artist, more recent IDW interior artist on the Star Trek ongoing series, and soon to be providing illustrations for Federation: The First 150 Years. One assume therefore this might be a picture book, and one would hope we’ll get some really good pictures for almost $20 for those ten pages! It’s due out in February next year.

Greg Cox has confirmed he will be writing a new TOS novel. The book, currently titled, The Twilight Realm, will be set in the five-year-mission era.
