From the zine: "The dubious honor of transporting the former Enterprise officers,to the ceremonies on Starbase 15 has fallen on the ship commanded by the son of Spock and Tarra St. John. The austere young captain, born on the Enterprise and raised on Vulcan, does not anticipate a meeting with his father or his family, nor with James Kirk, and he is relieved. to learn that they have obtained their own transportation."

 Image:idic6art.jpg| from IDIC #6 (1978) #6: "Pride of the Clan" -- This piece was a major inspiration for Caren Parnes: "The first major influence and the style I most wanted to emulate was Alice J.’s. She was the ultimate “realist” artist and that was my natural inclination anyway. I recently ran into a copy of IDIC 6 (1978) that has a slew of her artwork in it and saw a piece I had forgotten; one that had a huge impact on fandom at the time, a piece called “The Pride of the Clan”—a young, bare- chested Spock with long hair and a Star of David on his chest. I remember several conversations about that piece of art when I got into fandom (and that was seven years after it was published!)” from Dribbling Scribbling Women: The History of Our Art In 2017 spockslash wrote: "Mine is still in a frame, now packed away. Used to hang in my home office where I did my writing." 
File:Idic6spock.jpg|from IDIC #6 (1978) #6 -- "Portrait of Spock" - includes Juanita Salicrup's thoughts on this art: "Soft, lambent eyes, so sorrowful and intelligent - Deep, sable brown, liquid eyes that seem to - Beseech an answer to the puzzle of why - Life hurts so much. - He seems so young - And yet again so sadly mature, - Carrying gracefully the weight of his - Alien, half-human, always different identity. - It is the face of a man - Nobly resigned to his own lack of fulfillment - To the burden of loneliness rather than - The realization of love. - Crowned by a startling intellect, - Blessed, or cursed, with an iron will, Gifted with gentle compassion, he is -- For all his lack of laughter or smiles -- Worthy to be loved, - Compelling the lover, - And unwilling to reach out for it. - As forbidden as the fruit of the tree of knowledge - Is that golden essence to him. - And yet, the sensual mouth seems to yearn for it so! - Tell me, gentle Spock, - What is it you would reveal? - What secrets, sorrows, curiosities and joys are crowding Behind your fine eyes, waiting to be told? - To one who will listen, - There are all the treasures of the galaxy to be had - In this one sweet manVulcan, - For he is a truly wonderful example of - The Creator's Art."

Image:rigel4-4.jpg|from Rigel #4/5/6, for Executive Privilege: "[The story has] Kirk finding out about the rumor that he and Spock are lovers and breaking into astonished laughter. "He has lousy legs...they're all hairy," is one of the things Kirk says. Then he realizes that the rumor could have serious consequences for him and Spock, and he goes to confer with Spock on the subject at a very early hour of the morning. He wakes Spock up and Spock opens his door (they're in a Starbase hotel) dressed in his uniform pants and nothing else. Um, this is the action of a man seriously worried about those rumors? And there's a *gorgeous* Alice Jones illo on the facing page of the bare-chested Spock and the fully dressed Kirk--this doesn't help convince me of the authors' position, BTW <G> . If it's a nonissue...it should be a nonissue. Of course, I'm certainly grateful for the terrific art!" comments on a private mailing list, quoted anonymously (August 23, 2002)
