    “The Boys” Review

    The Boys: Created by Eric Kripke. With Karl Urban, Jack Quaid, Antony Starr, Erin Moriarty. A group of vigilantes set out to take down corrupt superheroes who abuse their superpowers.

    One more hyper-violent season of The Boys has come and gone. While I enjoy the “superheroes can be assholes too” type of stories they’re doing, it does feel like everything is meandering along and there’s been a loss of focus along he way. Mind you, I’m there for the next season, but I really want more story!

    Star Trek: The Autobiography of Benjamin Sisko

    Benjamin Sisko tells the story of his career in Starfleet, and his life as a father and Bajor’s Emmissary of the Prophets. Charting his rise through the ranks, his pioneering work designing the Defiant-class, his critical role as ambassador and leader during the Dominion War, and his sacred standing

    It was pure happenstance that I was half way through this when I started doing some interviews for my then upcoming trip to Shore-Leave 44 and was able to speak to Derek Tyler Attico about his career. Part of that conversation was obviously this book and after talking to him about his life experiences, I can see how many of them ended up in this books as a part of Sisko’s life, a great choice because they all feel like “lived in” emotions and responses to events. There’s one point in the book that a young Benjamin is given a book by his mother and he thinks that “books are the ultimate starship” and they can “take you places a warpcore could never reach” and while I don’t have access to a warp core, I’ve done a fair bit of traveling and I feel the same way.

    The book is just chock full of references and Tuckerizations, it would take a much longer post to write them all out here, but suffice to say if you’re a Trek fan you’re going to get a kick out of this book.
