Kirk and Spock are the ultimate sci-fi heroes. Of course, the greatest good guys need some brilliant adversaries. Certainly, Star Trek: The Original Series delivered there.
All sorts of colorful baddies — both humanoid and alien — turned up in those 79 classic episodes. We captured 13 of our favorites. If you can name nine or more, consider yourself a true Trekker. Or Trekkie. Whatever you'd like.
Good luck!
