Star Trek: The Next Generation #80

Captain Picard stands calm and composed at the center of this striking 1996 DC cover, his Starfleet red command uniform firmly in frame while an agitated crowd of civilians presses in from every side — hands grabbing, faces twisted with anger or desperation. The contrast between Picard's quiet resolve and the surrounding chaos sets a genuinely compelling tone for "The Abandoned." Gordon Purcell and Terry Pallot bring real energy to the composition, making this final issue of DC's long-running TNG series one that leaves you curious about what brought this crowd — and this captain — to such a flashpoint.
