Star Trek Magazine is an authorized periodical published bi-monthly by Titan UK in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand, devoted to the Star Trek franchise. The magazine has limited distribution in Europe. In August 2006 the magazine began to be published in North America with issue 128 being issue 1 in the US version.
Star Trek Magazine was the first regular magazine to be published by Titan Magazines and is its longest-running title. It was launched in March 1995 as Star Trek Monthly, soon after the first broadcast of Star Trek: Voyager. It dropped to bi-monthly release (but larger format) in 2004.
With issue 143 (Mar/Apr 2009), the magazine will increase its output to eight issues a year.
Famous quotes containing the words star and/or magazine:
“The obvious parallels between Star Wars and The Wizard of Oz have frequently been noted: in both there is the orphan hero who is raised on a farm by an aunt and uncle and yearns to escape to adventure. Obi-wan Kenobi resembles the Wizard; the loyal, plucky little robot R2D2 is Toto; C3PO is the Tin Man; and Chewbacca is the Cowardly Lion. Darth Vader replaces the Wicked Witch: this is a patriarchy rather than a matriarchy.”
—Andrew Gordon, U.S. educator, critic. “The Inescapable Family in American Science Fiction and Fantasy Films,” Journal of Popular Film and Television (Summer 1992)
“Experience cannot be transferred. We may give wise advice, but we cannot give wisdom to follow it.”
