From his powerful, poignant graphic memoir They Called Us Enemy to his latest release It Rhymes With Takei, we’re diving deep into the stories that shaped him, on the page and beyond.

But that’s just the beginning…

We’re talking Star Trek’s 60^th anniversary, silver screen memories, unforgettable TV roles, comic book tales, Shatner, and yes…even action figures!

Don’t miss this epic conversation with a true Hollywood icon, activist, and storytelling force. Check it out now and set phasers to AWESOME!
