IDW ADAPTS ELLISON STAR TREK STORY
IDW Publishing has announced it is adapting Harlan Ellison's original teleplay for the classic Star Trek episode "City on the Edge of Forever" into a five-issue mini-series in June.

Star Trek: Harlan Ellison's City on the Edge of Forever: The Original Teleplay will be written by Scott Tipton and David Tipton, with interior painted art by J.K. Woodward. Each issue of the series will feature a cover by Juan Ortiz, whose artistic interpretations of every episode of Star Trek: The Original Series were recently published in an oversize hardcover collection, Star Trek: The Art of Juan Ortiz. Variant covers will be provided by movie poster artist/Star Trek: Khan cover artist Paul Shipper.
Ellison's original teleplay is very different from the televised version. The comic-book miniseries will be produced under the guidance of Ellison himself,.
"Presenting Harlan Ellison's brilliant original script for City on the Edge... has been a goal of ours since IDW first began publishing Star Trek comics in 2007," said series editor and IDW chief creative officer/editor-in-chief Chris Ryall. "The episode justifies its position atop ‘best Star Trek episodes' lists but even it ain't nuthin' compared to what Ellison did in his original teleplay. This is truly going to be a Star Trek adventure unlike any other, even to fans who have that beloved episode memorized."
"It was a superlative joy of my long life to have worked with Leonard Nimoy, who became my friend, and many others at Star Trek," Ellison said, "and an equally heart-happy joy to be working with J.K. and the Tipton Bros. and Chris Ryall on this long-awaited visual of my -- humbly, I say it -- brilliant original City…'"
