Star Trek #31

Two Starfleet officers in classic red dress uniforms — one offering a quietly nervous "Uh-oh…" — stand at the center of the cover while a crowd of agitated alien figures looms behind them, shouting "Guilty!" from every direction. Gordon Purcell and Jerome Moore pack real dramatic tension into that simple contrast between the composed officers and the clamoring tribunal crowd. Howard Weinstein's "Veritas, Part II: Sacrifices and Survivors" promises exactly the kind of high-stakes courtroom drama this cover so vividly sets the scene for.
