collections. www.eaglemoss.com/en-gb/sci-fi-fantasy/star-trek-the-graphic-novel-collection/"Countdown" is £2.99 The adaptation of Harlan Ellison's original "City on the Edge of Forever" script is £6.99 Thence £9.99 each *Unless* you pay an extra pound for each issue, in which case you'll also get the crossovers with Doctor Who (misguided), Planet of the Apes (kinda works), and Legion of Superheroes (kinda pointless). It says "everything is here, from Gold Key’s first STAR TREK comic published in 1967 to the latest adventures" and it may even be true - the website has pictures of Gold Key and British comics (apparently these are in every volume as a backup strip) as well as Marvel and IDW material. So, I suppose, if you've got more money than I have, and eighty Big Finish audios a month hasn't put too much of a dent into your salary....

Looks like it's just a regional trial at the moment, which means it's only available in a few random areas and will likely get dropped after half a dozen issues or so. Depending on how the trial went they'll either relaunch it nationally within the following year or just scrap it entirely.
A few years ago the same company trialed a similar partwork featuring the old TV21 Gerry Anderson comics and that was cancelled after five issues, despite them having a website set up to take subscriptions. A lot of people were annoyed that there was no mention of it only being a trial when they signed up - so, yes, I'd steer clear of this until it gets a national launch...

They seem to be doing these for alot of Series atm. Although the Marvel one they started recently was actually just a rerun of the one the first released in 2011 lol.
Wonder if they'll do Alien or Predator next lol
