Lt. Nyota Uhura
Lt. Nyota Uhura is the Enterprise's chief communications officer, a Starfleet officer serving under Captain James T. Kirk alongside Spock, Sulu, and Dr. McCoy. Originally from the Star Trek television universe, she appears here in a crossover encounter with the X-Men.
Few characters arrive with quite the crossover pedigree of Lt. Nyota Uhura, who made her comics debut in the pages of the landmark Star Trek / X-Men #1 in 1996 — a Modern Age collision of two beloved universes brought to life by Scott Lobdell, Marc Silvestri, and Billy Tan. Over a publishing span stretching nearly three decades, she's kept distinguished company aboard the Enterprise, sharing adventures with Captain James T. Kirk, Commander Spock, Lt. Hikaru Sulu, and Dr. Leonard "Bones" McCoy across IDW titles as eclectic and ambitious as Star Trek vs. Transformers and Star Trek #400. Her catalog footprint may be compact, but every appearance carries the weight of one of science fiction's most iconic figures stepping confidently onto the comics page. For collectors who love seeing beloved characters honored across media, Lt. Uhura's comics presence is a genuine treasure worth seeking out.
