Star Trek #9

DC's 1990 Star Trek series delivers a striking cover for issue #9, with a Starfleet officer in a red uniform crying out in apparent agony while a sinister, flame-wreathed figure looms behind him, hands outstretched in a threatening grip. In the background, the Enterprise hangs in space amid fiery explosions, suggesting the ship itself is in serious peril. Cover artist Eric Peterson packs the image with visceral tension, and with Peter David writing alongside James Fry and Arne Starr on interiors, this "...Gone!" chapter promises a story that lives up to its unsettling cover.
