There are a lot of things you can do when it comes to making a joke out of Star Trek characters. With their demeanour that ends up being much more like the aliens they're interacting with than humans, it's pretty easy to make a case for them being some of the strangest characters on television. Making things even stranger though is this image combining the famous characters with the most vicious and powerful dinosaur of all time the T-Rex.
The obvious parallel in this image is the fact that the word Trek is extremely close to the name T-Rex so when put together you get the Star T-Rex.Puns aside, the images are quite good and as a piece of apparel, they're quite punny
