Catch Star Trek Archives: Best Of The Borg (Star Trek Archives, #2) Narrated By Michael Jan Friedman Expressed As E-Text

mediocre. This socalled "best of the Borg" consists of two stories, both of which are fairly unoriginal, with artwork that doesn't really hold up to modern standards, Good story

I liked the next generation story to do with the Borg and that they have conquered earth I didn't like the operation assimilate story Parallel universe travelling.
Not a huge fan of that, Not a bad collection of stories, I particularly liked the final story of the Romulans encountering the Borg for the first time, The main story TNG parallel universe was interesting, but I wasn't as taken by the art style, The parallel universe was visually distracting in that the uniforms seemed like TNG uniforms but with a slice of ham or a pancake on either shoulder, . . The story was fine though, This collection consists of only two works: a mediocre miniseries with the unoriginal title The Worst of Both Worlds involving yet another "dark mirror" parallel universe, and a very good oneshot about Romulans called Operation Assimilation.
Buy it for the latter alone, I read it when as a kid when it first came out inand remember being disappointed there was no second issue, Unlike The Worst of Both Worlds the artwork has aged very well except for the nonsensical boob window, and its theme of moving from one brand of authoritarianism to another one is still engaging.
Classic reads

Looking for some of the older titles to read through and found this to be a fun and entertaining read, I remember when Star Trek TNG first came out, I did not care at all, except the guy from Reading Rainbow was going to be on it,

After an episode or two, that still wasnt enough to keep my interest, So I watched it rarely if ever, and really didnt care about it until I learned about the Borg, Then recently I started watching clips of Captain Picard and felt he was a great role model,

I watched a few of the movies, some of the episodes on the Borg, and really enjoyed them, So of course I had to pick this up,

It is a good story, Even with only partial familiarity with the characters, I enjoyed this, But honestly I have just been enjoying reading again lately, and that in itself is exciting, At times, "The Worst of Both Worlds" feels a little bit overstuffed, And "Operation Assimilation" doesn't really have much to do with it other than the fact that it features the Borg, But Picard's guess that the Locutus of a different universe has Sarek's emotions was a clever solution, seeing as how the episode "Sarek" took place a short time before "The Best of Both Worlds.
" This collection includes five issues from the's the fourpart "The Worst of Both Worlds" and the standalone "Operation Assimilation, " My recommendation is to stick with the Borg encounters in the shows or the novels instead of looking here,

"The Worst of Both Worlds" is an alternate universe story, where one of the differences is that Starfleet uniforms have orange shoulder pads, Seriously! Details like that are important when you deal with alternate universes, It's tacky and rather predictable,

"Operation Assimilation" is the story of one Romulan as she encounters the Borg, You can guess what happens,

The art is dated and underwhelming, and the stories are cheesy, But I bought this forcents and got to make fun of it, so I can't complain, Good graphic novel story was good I liked the idea that the Borg in this alternate universe that the crew were transported to conquered earth I didn't like the operation assimilate story Great

Loved it, have to force my self to stop reading just to sleep.
Hope there is more where this book came from, "We are the Borg. Lower your shields and surrender your ships, . . " The most dangerous and relentless adversary in the Star Trek universe is back in these classic stories, To call this collection the Best of the Borg may be a bit of an overstatement since it only really includes one TNGera story arc and a oneshot involving a Romulan encounter with the Borg, but the TNG Story The Worst of Both Worlds is a pretty solid experience.
Involving a parallel reality where the Borg eventually conquered most of the Federation with that single Cube at Wolf, our Prime Universe crew are challenged with helping the remaining survivors finally defeat the Borg in exchange for going home.
It's not the Mirror Universe, but it's certainly a more grim version of the reality we've come to
