Star Trek #30

This September 1986 DC issue puts Uhura front and center — quite literally in the title — spotlighting one of the Enterprise crew's most capable officers in her own featured story. The cover by Joe Brozowski and Klaus Janson delivers a tense deep-space confrontation: a Klingon Bird-of-Prey fires a devastating red energy beam that sends a smaller vessel erupting in a fiery explosion, while the Enterprise looms in the background under threat. It's a visually striking setup that promises high stakes and starship action to match the personal focus of Uhura's tale.
