Why Khan And Collection Services Is A Mistaken Pairing

By Rob Sutter


I wasn't the kind of person who watched a great deal of "Star Trek" on television, though I have seen the recent films. As someone who enjoys action, I thought that they did very well capturing the same amount of scope that the franchise has been associated with for so long. Of course, it would be wrong not to cite the cast of characters brought over. Khan is considered the greatest villain of the series and it's one of the reasons why he wouldn't do well in the real world, collection services in particular.

As much as I haven't watched "Star Trek" to great extents, I will say that I respect the franchise for what it had brought to science fiction. It's definitely one of the major players as far as this genre is concerned and it's hard to find anyone who will argue the point. Along with a litany of worlds to discover, you had a reason to become attached to one character after another. I can only hope that others feel this way, regardless of how little time they have spent with this entity.

First and foremost, it's important to state why collection services are talked about so highly. Consider agencies like Rapid Recovery, which understand the many rules associated with this line of work. Each of them should be followed and there has to be a sense of moral ground put into place in order to make this the most effective practice as humanly possible. Now, I am sure that fans of the franchise will be able to answer this: do these sorts of ideas fit Khan in any way?

I don't think that anyone will be able to say that they didn't like seeing Khan in "Star Trek: Into Darkness." This was the case for me as well, since I was able to witness a great representation of the character that was seen in the past shows and movies. Yes, he acted as a villain should, as he showed calculating actions along with brutal force. That being said, I couldn't help but notice his human traits as he seemed to possess a bond with his frozen crew.

However, that does not stop the fact that he managed to bring a level of pain to the crew upon the Enterprise, which must have angered younger viewers back in the day. I'm sure that they have grown up, though, with an appreciation for Khan. As a villain, he has shown that brute force is only as effective as the intelligence that you could bring to it. It's a deadly combination and one that has made this character of fiction seem almost real.
