This Is Not Logical
Cidu Bill on Sep 20th 2009
Is there anything here other than the incongruity of Spock wanting to be called Mister Hot Stuff? Maybe a reference to the fact that in the Star Trek reboot he seems to be in a permanent state of pon farr?

Even in pon farr, TOS Spock wasn’t all that hot. Sylar/Spock seems a little more interested in getting some.

Wasn’t that what Lisa Lamanelli called Mr. Sulu?

You’d think, of all the parts of a classic Star Trek comic strip to colour, the uniforms would be the easiest to do… But apparently they defeated whoever was responsible for this panel.
As for “TOS Spock wasn’t all that hot”, I know a number of women who’d argue otherwise…

LOL at Spock not being “all that hot”! Roddenberry tried mightily to turn Kirk into the heartthrob but Spock was far more popular with women. (As Isaac Asimov once pointed out, it wasn’t surprising that women would be attracted to a man who never lost his temper.)

I misread that as “porn farr”

Actually, every seven years, Vulcan hosts a porn fair.

Maybe women like Spock because he’s not full of himself.
(Though, in an odd way, he is.)

Keera, please explain your comment. Also, while you’re at it, could you explain how to add smiley faces ( and possibly other faces ) to posts?

Rainey, as detached as Spock is, he nevertheless is incapable of seeing the world in any other way than his own.
