I’d like to know what the ideation process for this one was. What came first: The Borg, The Whale, or The Trek?
Usually I can find my early notes and sketches for a comic, but not this time, unfortunately!
I do know that this idea started with Picard, because I would have been brainstorming ideas for Picard Day. And then I probably got thinking about the time that he was assimilated into the Borg. What Picard-like skills and qualities would the Borg deem worthy of assimilation? His love of literary classics? Probably not! 🙂
I expect that I settled on Moby Dick as the obvious literature reference, because it’s mentioned extensively in Star Trek: First Contact. And because hey I’d get to draw a cyborg whale! 🙂
