Star Trek: Lower Decks #[nn]

In "All in a Sea of Wonders," the Cerritos crew takes a break on the holodeck, diving into classic adventures from Dixon Hill to Sherlock Holmes—until a system glitch overwrites the safety protocols, accidentally bringing a sentient Dracula to life. Written by the team behind the series and illustrated with their signature blend of humor and sci-fi flair, this story finds the lower decks crew scrambling to contain a vampire they never meant to create.

In "null," Beckett and the Lower Decks crew face a bizarre dilemma when their accidental creation—a sentient Dracula-like being—threatens to upend their mission, all while Captain Freeman, Lt. Shaxs, and Dr. T'Ana are imprisoned on Qvanti, accused of witchcraft and sentenced to burn at the stake. With humor and heart, the story balances the crew’s chaotic attempts to manage their unintended creation against the escalating danger facing their stranded commanding officers.

In "null," the Dracula hologram—once just a shipboard entertainment fixture—begins to outsmart the crew by exploiting the Cerritos’s systems, turning the tables on the lower decks team. With the Qvanti closing in and the ship in peril, Jo and the crew must find a way to work with the increasingly unpredictable vampire hologram before the Cerritos is lost.
