Neal Trek

Holy crap, Neal Adams draws STAR TREK! That's pretty much the coolest thing I've seen this week. This is the cover to one of those Power Records book/45 rpm record sets that were popular during the 1970s. You would listen to a STAR TREK adventure (with anonymous actors playing the characters) and follow along with the comic book.

It looks like the great Adams illustrated several covers for Power Records, as well as some of the interiors. This particular book contains a story, "The Time Stealers," that Adams also co-wrote with the popular Superman author Cary Bates. It, and every other STAR TREK comic book ever published, is available from GIT Corporation on this incredible DVD-ROM. I gotta have it. It includes the long Gold Key series, all the Marvel and DC series (including the movie adaptations), and several runs from independent publishers since.

Er, it's on my Amazon wish list, if you're charitable enough to click the link over on the sidebar to the right…
