Star Trek #19

IDW's 2013 Star Trek series continues with issue #19, featuring a striking cover by Tim Bradstreet that frames a determined-looking man's face within the shape of a Starfleet delta insignia, set against a star-filled cosmos layered with technical schematics. Below him, a detailed schematic view of the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701 stretches across the lower half, annotated with the ship's systems and compartments. With writing by Mike Johnson and interior art from Claudia Balboni and Arianna Florean, this issue promises the kind of thoughtful, universe-expanding storytelling that has made this series a rewarding read for Trek fans.
