Ensign Pavel Chekov

Beloved by Star Trek fans across generations, Ensign Pavel Chekov makes his comics debut in IDW's Star Trek: Year Five #10 (2020), brought to the page by Jim McCann and Silvia Califano. This Modern Age entry plants him squarely among the finest company in the Final Frontier — sharing adventures with Captain Kirk, Spock, Bones McCoy, Sulu, and Scotty across a run that captures the spirit of classic Trek. His catalog footprint is small but choice, stretching into the wonderfully unexpected Dungeons & Dragons: Mindbreaker, which hints at the creative range IDW brought to these characters. A must for any Trekkie who wants their comics shelf to feel complete.
