Didja Know?
Stranger Worlds is a 6-part
Star Trek story set in the Kelvin Timeline created by the
Romulan Nero's incursion into the past in the 2009 Star Trek
movie (starting with
"Rebirth" in the PopApostle ST chronology). It was published
by IDW as the 6-part mini-series Star Trek/Green Lantern
(2016-2017) a
cross-over of the characters of Star Trek and those of
the various Lantern Corps from the DC Universe of comic books
published by DC Comics.
Stranger Worlds follows the events of the first
Star Trek/Green Lantern crossover,
The Spectrum War.
This mini-series takes place in an
alternate timeline than the one followed in the main PopApostle
Star Trek chronology of the Kelvin Timeline.

Didja Notice?
Page 1 states that John, Guy, and Kilowog are buried under
25 tons of parsteel. In the ST: TNG episode "The Measure Of
A Man", parsteel was a metal alloy with a tensile strength
of 40 kilobars.
On page 9, Sinestro gives his first name as Thaal. This was
previously established in DC comic books.
On page 16, Spock states, "...in my time on the
Enterprise, I have come to believe that no scenario is
truly...unwinnable." This, of course, is a play on Kirk's
statement in the original ST timeline
that he doesn't believe in no-win scenarios in the movie
Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan.
On page 17, the Klingon homeworld is spelled "Kronos",
though the past issues of the mini-series have used the
Klingon Qo'noS
spelling. The remaining issues also start using
"Kronos".
On page 19, Sinestro tells the Guardians that he knows about
the terrible being they trapped inside the central power
battery. This being is Parallax, the physical embodiment of
fear established in stories of the DC universe.
