Star Trek #5

DC's Star Trek #5 (June 1984) arrives with one of the series' most striking covers — a massive, blue-tinted godlike figure looms over a crowd of Starfleet officers in red uniforms, clutching and scattering them in his enormous hands like toys. The sheer scale of that imposing face, wide-eyed and menacing, sets a genuinely unsettling tone that pairs perfectly with the story title "Mortal Gods." Writer Mike W. Barr and the cover art team of Tom Sutton and Sal Amendola deliver an image that makes the crew's vulnerability feel very real.
