"No one will ever believe you, but that actually was the name of where I was stationed. I believe it is what you humans call 'a humorous place name,' such as 'Intercourse, Pennsylvania' and 'Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch' in Wales."

Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch

I've been there!

I've never been, but I've known of the name for years. It's also a password in the movie Barbarella.

These panels really need to be mirrored. I kept reading the dialogue balloons out of order.

[-] gregorum@lemm.ee 17 points 6 months ago

Typographical hierarchy and the graphical hierarchy of order aren’t things they teach you in design school for no reason.

I’m not much of an illustrator myself. I appreciate the work and talent and skill that goes into making these… but how do you get so good at making these without understanding some of the fundamentals of design and layout?

[-] Steve@communick.news 12 points 6 months ago

In comicbook word/thought bubbles, height in the panel always trumps laterality. It's standard practice. You get used to it quickly.

[-] VindictiveJudge@lemmy.world 13 points 6 months ago

Yes, but Tuvok's bubbles are only barely lower than Paris' bubbles. Since there isn't significant white space above Tuvok's bubbles, it's easy to read those first even when you're used to comics, especially since they're in the upper left corner. Move Tuvok's bubble in the first panel to between Tuvok's and Paris' heads and that one gets much easier to read. Panel four would also benefit from larger text size on Paris' line.

It feels weird for Tuvok to call him "Paris" for some reason, but I also haven't seen VOY in a long time. Did he usually refer to him as Lieutenant?

Also, this has to be an aftereffect of being Tuvix.

[-] CosmicTurtle0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 6 months ago

Yeah that hit me wrong too. I believe he often addresses him Lt. Paris or Mr. Paris.

[-] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

Except when he was Ensign Paris for a little while.

[-] CosmicTurtle0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 6 months ago

Depends if you subscribe to the timeline that the biomimetic Paris was the one demoted instead of the real Paris.

Some people think that's why for a few episodes, Paris can be seen with both lieutenant and ensign pips on his collar.

Paris looks like Vaultboy's cousin in this

[-] VelvetStorm@lemmy.world 9 points 6 months ago

I get some capt holt vibes here.

This isn't Seska, you're just some common Kazon

/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.
