New Visions While Waiting

One recent item jumped out at me from the usual flow of reports on the Anime News Network, at first glance an unexpected stretch in what the site covers. There've been connections between the Transformers and Japan from the very beginning, of course, but I don't remember the site taking that much interest in them. Star Trek would seem that much further afield. Even so, though, the report the comic book company that now holds the license for both Transformers and Star Trek comics would be publishing a crossover between those two franchises did amuse me, in a way that cut through my usual thoughts of "I know about them; I'd just rather spend what time I have now on other things than trying to follow their modern flow of product." (Certainly, if not for that single unusual excursion, it might have been a while before I'd taken another look at the "Star Trek news" or "Transformers information" sites I do know about, when the bit of news might already have been buried in their own flow of reports.)
