Star Trek #29

From DC's 1986 run of Star Trek, issue #29 presents a genuinely tense cover by Joe Brozowski and Ricardo Villagrán: a small, defiant group of figures makes a desperate stand atop a rocky outcrop, surrounded by swarming attackers beneath a blood-red alien sun — all while the familiar silhouette of the Enterprise looms overhead as if bearing witness. The cover tagline "Stranded on a Hostile World!" sets the stakes perfectly, promising the kind of planetary peril that made this era of Trek comics so compelling. Writer Tony Isabella teams with artist Tom Sutton for the interior tale "The Trouble with Bearclaw," making this a solid chapter in DC's thoughtful, film-era take on the franchise.
