I bought this out of curiosity being a fan of both shows but not really a big reader of graphic novels. I was extremely suprised by just how good a read this was. It captures both shows extremely well, you can hear the 11th Doctor, you can hear Picard and as for the quality of the artwork it's nothing short of beautiful. I also loved the flashback to an earlier Enterprise and an earlier Doctor which is presented in the style of a 1970's comic strip. Took me right back to my childhood. A brilliant concept which is executed beautifully. Counting down the days to volume 2 in January

Crossovers between two world-famous properties are nothing new. We've seen them happen many times over the years, where the most-impossible, dream-meetings that fans have wanted to see...have actually happened.
For instance, Disney & Final Fantasy crossed over to produce Kingdom Hearts, Marvel has actually clashed with the likes of DC and Capcom, Spider-Man has teamed up with Batman & Superman, Star Trek has crossed over with X-Men; among many more incredible tales. There's been tremendous success with franchises crossing-over, and last-year the latest `dream-pairing' finally happened.
Doctor Who and Star Trek. Two of the most popular science-fiction franchises to have ever emerged. There's been so much fan-art, fan-fiction & ace videos on YouTube envisioning of what such a meeting between the Time Lord and the USS Enterprise would entail.
And now, it's official. Star Trek: The Next Generation actually meets Doctor Who in Assimilation2, an eight-part story boasting beautiful artwork and fine writing, both of which pays equal respect to both franchises, and brings them together in a plausible, epic & logical setting.
It's the usual daily dose of adventuring for both crews of the USS Enterprise & the TARDIS. Then the Doctor, Amy & Rory bump into Commander Riker, Data and Doctor Crusher in 1941 San Francisco. Actually, the TARDIS and her crew materialises right in the middle of a simulation on board the Enterprise's holodeck! As the Doctor & his companions acquaint themselves with Captain Jean-Luc Picard & his crew, they soon find themselves ambushed by the ultimate nightmarish alliance of the Borg & the Cybermen.
While Assimilation2 may sound basic so far, it certainly doesn't feel cheap or lazy.... Read more ›

Well, they was fun indeed. If you like Star Trek and Doctor Who you are in for a bit of a treat. The world's of both programs join together as the Borg and the Cybermen form an alliance to destroy and conquer the universe. Something is very wrong as memories come to the Doctor, memories of past adventures that never happened yet have now. Memories of his adventure with Captain James T Kirk and their battle with the Cybermen.
An intriguing storyline and some beautifully rendered artwork join together to bring the world or Who and Trek alive. Each character is true to their on screen counterparts in looks and mannerisms, and speech patterns are so accurate you can hear the characters talking as you read.
Wonderful work and a pleasure to read and look at. A must for fans, but also for lovers of intriguing sci-fi stories.

This is a pretty good story however it is let down by the poor graphics, at times the artwork actually detracts from the story. This is probably a book only for die-hard trek and who fans.

Ordered this on a whim after Stephen Notley (angryflower.com) recommended it. The mash-up of STTNG and Dr Who largely works as a premise (preposterous as it sounds), and the artwork is, with the exception of a handful of ropy panels, incredibly good. Personally I thought the pace of the story was rather quick, and they could have made a lot more of some aspects, but this is only volume one of ? so perhaps more avenues will be explored in later issues.

Well lets gt one thing straight, I am still reading this quite literally 'EPIC' Sci-if Crossover of the century but I already love it!
It's just excellent seeing The Doctor & Captain Jean-Luc Picard interact, I hope 'Sir' Patrick Stewart & Matt Smith read this and enjoy it as much as me....better yet any of the cast of both these classicly brilliant TV Shows should read and smile with pride at what they themselves help creat. I knw I would be proud :).

Picked this up as a curiosity more than anything else and with its failure to show giant space battles and instead talking about them it's a tad rubbish. Easy enough a to b plotlines. Only real highlight is original star trek teaming up with Tom baker doctor.

Looked good in the store and, having read of the series in many reviews, I was looking forward to it.
So, imagine; the art work is marvellous, shown to great effect on the Kindle screen. But that's it. I can't read the 'speech bubbles', and can't manipulate the screen to enlarge the text. Pretty, but pointless.

Brilliant idea to combine two such iconic franchises
I am a total Star Trek nut, and have always liked the Doctor Who series. Bringing together these two franchises was a brilliant idea - best of American and British Sci-Fi. Read more

Only half way though but it is a great story, greatly combining the Dr. with Star Trek, a wonderful idea.

Disappointingly incomplete tale
