A Seriously Badass Star Trek Poster

Ok, let's all just say it together and get it out of the way.

KKKKHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!

I swear, yelling that will never get old. Anyways, the incredibly awesome image you see above is the first in a new line of Star Trek posters that are being put out as part of a collaboration between CBS and an art design firm called Mondo. To see the poster in its full resolution glory, go HERE.

I'd have to say it's easily one of the coolest Star Trek posters I've ever seen. There's this great streamlined, retro feel to it that I love. As an added bonus, those numbers on the left side of the poster are filled with nerdy importance.

The 1 and the 22 stand for the season and episode number of the episode that the poster is portraying. 3141.9 is the stardate that the events in the episode take place on, and 2267 is the year in which the episode takes place. Those are completely unnecessary little details to add to a poster, but they add just a little bit more nerdiness into something already exceptionally nerdy, thus making the poster even more badass.

Sadly, the poster sold out in less than an hour, so the chances of you or I getting one are pretty much nonexistant. However, there will be more posters in this line coming out in the future, so keep your eyes out for them. Also, pray for a reprint to be allowed.
