Mirror Universe Khan

Post by Mark »

Have you ever wondered what Treks greatest badguy was like in the mirror universe? Was he ever born? Did the MU even HAVE Eugenecs Wars? Was he a hero?

This thread is pure speculation. What would you think of a MU Khan?

Hmmm, quite a poser, Mark...

I'd imagine the MU Earth would be pro-eugenics, so there might not have been the resultant wars - in which case, Khan would be no more special than the many other "superior" engineered products of eugenics.

Mirror Universe shifted because the Vulcan's were thought of as a threat and killed. So I'd expect he'd be the exact same as Prime Universe.

I don't think that scene was depicting the point of departure from the prime universe to the mirror - more demonstrating how the MU dealt with the same encounter differently.
Only two things are infinite - the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the universe: Albert Einstein.

Well, we know that WWIII happened, because that was why things were how they were in that scene depicted when ol' Zephy blasted the Vulcans. But I can't imagine things being much different in the MU. If they experimented with "supermen" and intended to use them as shock troops, I'd see them rebelling.

Maybe they fled the Empire, and set up shop somewhere else?

The wars might not necessarily have been avoided. For one, we don't really get any indication from other MU people that they're the products of eugenics. Or even that they're much different (aside from personality) than their normal counterparts.

I can see the Eugenics Wars being more in the way of a revolution than an attempt at conquest.
