Star Trek: Discovery’s third season is beaming in hot next week, depositing our heroes in a future unlike anything they’ve seen before — even with last season’s timey-wimey angelic shenanigans. But the landing is going to be a little bumpy for our heroes.
Just dropped as part of New York Comic-Con’s Star Trek Universe panel, CBS has revealed one more look at the show before we actually get to start watching it — our first look at the Discovery being flung into the year 3188.
Not just giving us a bumpy landing for Michael, as she zooms in wearing her angel suit, bounces off ships, and begins a nasty crash-landing, we also get our first look at one of the mysterious new characters arriving this season: David Ajala’s Book, who will become a big point of contact for Michael and the Discovery as they re-acclimatize to this future. Beyond, y’know, Michael pinging herself off his ship mid-chase.
He has a cat! His name’s Grudge. We love him already.
