The Prequel to the Prequel...which is actually a sequel

Ok, confusing title, I know.

I had some questions about the latest Star Trek movie...
...how did the Narada, a mining ship, manage to beat off 47 Klingon warbirds and 7 Starfleet vessels...?
...if a supernova destroyed Romulus, why didn't anyone get enough warning time to evacuate, like, I don't know, a couple of hundred million years advanced warning...?
...why didn't the Vulcans have any orbital defenses...?
...where were the 6 billion Vulcans...?

Apparently JJ Abrams released "Countdown" a comic that tells the story of everyone the start of the movie. The story actually begins 8 years after the events in the movie Star Trek: Nemesis and does a fine job of answering some of the questions above.


Next up is an analysis on the military aspects of the movie - which, as cool as it looked like, was actually...er, pathetic.

Yes, my geekiness is in full swing!
