Star Trek #45

Spock's intense visage dominates this December 1987 DC issue as two Starfleet officers in red uniforms find themselves surrounded by a mob of primitive, spear-wielding figures — and the cover tagline "The Feeders of… Spock?" promises something genuinely unsettling is at stake for the beloved Vulcan. Cover art by Joe Brozowski and Bob Lewis stages the threat with real urgency, arrows and spears converging from every direction while Spock looms large overhead. With writer Mike Carlin and artist Tom Sutton delivering the third chapter of "The Return of the Serpent," this issue drops readers into the deep end of an already-escalating adventure.
