Marcus passes this along: the Usenet post from J. Michael Straczynski where he offers, with characteristic reluctance and humility, to take the mantle of the Star Trek universe onto his shoulders, and his cue for the accolades from the fans who were awakened from their slumber by JMS' clarion call. And a considered response from IGN's KJB, who finds the whole thing just a tad creepy.
It's hard not to be of two minds on a matter like this. Installing a personality cult saved Apple, but can it save Star Trek? Or—considering that it involves a nuke-n-pave and rewrite of the entire chronology and universe—would it be like more of a Great Leap Forward?
