It says something about our times that Nicholas Meyer is reportedly developing a new Star Trek series based around the adventures of Khan and his merry band of eugenics supporters following the events of Space Seed.
I saw that, where Khan was described as an anti-hero, and thought that was a very odd way of describing him. A tragic villain, fair enough, but while he's a compelling character, that doesn't make him someone I can root for.
It reminds me of the smug anti-intellectualism I've encountered for three decades among some of the loudest male gamers and genre fans, and are a lot of what put me off gaming.
I'd not heard of Confederate. I have now. What a distasteful way to handle an open historical wound. A play, yes; but I'm not sure about an entire series.
