Star Trek: The Next Generation Ticket Giveaway

We usually don’t do these sort of things, but goshdarnit this one is just too good to pass up.

I’ll let the event copy give you the gist…

This not to be missed movie theatre event will feature two of the most popular Next Generation episodes, Q Who? and The Measure of a Man which will include, for the very first time, about 13 minutes of never before seen additional content.

This special event will also include exclusive looks at the extensive restoration taken to make Season 2 look better than ever before, never-before-seen interviews with the original cast members, a behind-the-scenes look at the artists who created the original FX elements and photography and a reunion with the original cast members, captured in December 2011, as they celebrate 25 years of this unforgettable series.

The screening will take place on Thursday, November 29th at 7pm, at the LA Live theaters by the Staples Center.

Next Generation ON THE BIG SCREEN will be an event cooler than the Breen homeworld. We have 5 pairs of tickets to give away, here’s how to win ’em:

Email us (shq@thesecretheadquarters.com) and let us know who your favorite Star Trek captain is and why. Malachi Ward and I will judge your answers and reward you. Just use the subject line “Tea. Earl Grey. Hot.” Get us your answer by Sunday, November 25th and we will announce winners on Monday.

ENGAGE!

This Week’s Must Reads

Happy November! I’m going to focus on some recent indie stuff this week, since there have been sooo many marvelous new books out lately.

Pope Hats #3

HURRAY! The story of Frances and Vickie continues.

Barack Hussein Obama

This is… not the President Obama you think you know.

The Nao of Brown

A shop favorite for the past few weeks. The story is incredibly unique and interesting, and the art in this book will blow you away.

Abelard

Gorgeous, poetic story from the creator of Bubbles & Gondola. Sometimes hilarious, sometimes heartbreaking, definitely worth a read.

Heads Or Tails

Brilliant and whimsical short stories by Lilli Carré

The Hive

The sequel to Charles Burns’ X’ed Out! We have super special signed bookplate editions here at SHQ.

The Hypo: The Melancholic Young Lincoln

A fascinating look at a period of Lincoln’s life and struggle with depression that is usually forgotten.

Big Plans

I’ve been a fan of Aron Nels Steinke’s autobiographical minicomics for quite awhile now, so I’m very excited to see them in this lovely big collection. Includes a ton of new material as well!

There are so many books that we’re excited about, come in and let us show them to you!
