Stone Trek

Stone Trek was an internet-based flash-animated series created by cartoon artist Brian Matthews out of his love for  and Star Trek, following the unlikely adventures of the USS. What began as a series of humorous panels developed into a series that achieved a life of its own.

Stone Trek debuted in 2000 at Icebox.com, before moving to its own website as well as Starland.com, which sponsored later episodes. The series was produced by Matthews and Jim Jenkins, with the voice talent of Wally Fields, a professional voice artist who also provided voices for the videogame Birth of the Federation. The series featured a running count of "redshirts" killed in each episode. Fans could write in to nominate themselves to be caricatured as redshirts in future episodes.

Movie Magic Magazine called it an "innovative (and oftentimes quite funny) take on the original Star Trek" in its September 2004 issue. SciFi.com called it "a humorous cartoon masterpiece", and SFCrowsnest, an online European fan news magazine, called it "fantastic, fantastic, fantastic!"
