When they added the Borg “queen”, I was really bummed - because I had definitely thought of them as an autonomous collective.
Have to say I prefer the Queen over Trump/Vance.
At least she admits she’s evil.
What is the point of the Queen then?
Personification that changed the original concept for the sake of the story.
More importantly, it’s just a comic.
Yes, but it works best with the original BORG concept, before they introduced the queen.
The BORG was originally described as a collective, and a collective doesn’t have rulers like a queen.
So I must admit I was a bit disappointed in the introduction of a BORG queen.
Still the BORG remain a very cool part of Star Trek.
To show that hack writers didn’t get what made the borg cool and scary. They turned then into normal boring bad guys.

You may have noticed there is more than one Borg queen.

Well I can’t just call you “Borg.”
You could say 3 of 7.
I didn’t know you were called 3 of 7!
Well you didn’t ask, did you?
I did say ‘sorry’ about the ‘old robot’, but from the behind you looked–
What I object to is that you automatically treat me like an individual.
Well I am captain!

“Listen. Strange women, hanging from the ceiling, distributing skin, is no basis for a system of government.”
I didn’t know we had a queen - I thought we were an anarcho-syndicalist collective?
You’re fooling yourself. We’re living in a dictatorship: a self-perpetuating autocracy in which the working drones…
