I received Star Trek: The Manga (Ultimate Edition) for my birthday this summer and have to admit to disappointment. If this represents the "cream of the crop" of recent Star Trek manga it doesn't speak well of what was left out. Most of the stories simply force the Original Series cast into bland manga storylines. The result feels slap-dash and out of place and doesn't service either genre particularly well.
That having been said, the volume is worth the price for Wil Wheaton'...more

For the most part, this is a fantastic collection of short manga - particularly if you're a fan of the classic show. Many of these were like watching the old show actually, and seemed to get the interaction amongst the characters spot on. Recommended if you're both a manga fan and a star trek fan.
I just saw the movie last week and I loved it. When I went to Barnes and Nobles, I saw this manga edition of star trek, I decided to pick it up and buy it. It's a cool book. It's just all the set-aside adventures of Kirk, Spock, Uhura, Sulu, Chekov, and Scotty.
A very enjoyable read. I especially liked Side Effects and Art of War, but most of the other stories were solidly entertaining as well. The only letdowns were the mecha story (doesn't fit in my vision of Star Trek) and the gender warfare story (unoriginal and uninteresting).
All the stories were excellently written and drawn.
