Oh please! Call him Banshee. Mr. Banshee is his father.

You can call me whatever suits you at the time.  :w:

No Mr. Banshee is MY father...............................(gasp)!             

I would come up with another witty remark, but I think my previous one works here too.

You don't mind Spock and Uhura?

What kind of pers....

What's this? You like the Ultimate Line as well? Well that explains the poor judgment.

Generic welcome.

I'm not nerd enough to know who Uhura is.  So I'm not nerd enough to care I guess.

Welcome!  I hope you like puzzles.

Hmm. Why do I always get that reaction? What exactly is wrong with ultimate comics?
Generic confusion.
Spock is becoming a sex symbol. Come on, how can you not find that amusing?  :lol:

Uhura is this black girl they need on star trek to keep the whole racial situation under check.
She's quite attractive. Isn't it geeky to like star trek rather than nerdy? Is there a difference?

I love puzzles. Indeed it is the day of Tues, why are you asking?

Are you kidding? Mr. Spock was a sex symbol from the start. He's the mysterious Other, the savage lover who keeps his roiling passions in check. And when he lets loose every seven years or so, whoo-boy, stand back.

Sure, Kirk is the obvious sex symbol, in the usual leering eyebrow-waggling prancing-goat horndog sort of way, but don't think for one moment that Spock wasn't supposed to be as big a sex symbol as, say, the Professor on Gilligan's Island.

I'm not sure what you mean by "keep the whole racial situation under check". Roddenberry's concept of the future world was complete harmony and cooperation among all the world's nations (after passing through some pretty bad patches along the way). The Federation enlists the most talented and capable people from all nations.

The Uhura character was a triple-play. Remember, this was the '60s. Including a black person as a regular character on an Americal TV show made a strong, and rare statement. Second, portraying a woman as a mental equal with men also made a strong and rare statement. And the third whammy is that this liberated black female professional is still a sensual, feminine woman. She was one king hell of a role model.

Of course, for you Star Trek is probably not much more than the most recent movie. I'm guessing that because, to us old Trekkers, Uhura and Spock don't kiss -- it's Uhura and Kirk who kiss, in the episode Plato's Stepchildren, albeit against their wills. It was the first scripted interracial kiss on American television.

Ultimate? Are we talking about Ultimate Muscle? :D
...............pom poko.


Greg, have you got a crush on Leonard Nimoy? Well if you think he's so sexy wouldn't it make more sense for Uhura to kiss him? Btw the race thing was a JOKE.

Greg's objection is that it violates canon. He watched The Original Series when it was first aired on a little black and white TV with rabbit ears.
