Star Trek: Year Five #10

In "The Wine-Dark Deep [Part 2]," Spock, Sulu, and Chekov find themselves caught between warring factions on the planet I'Qos as tensions erupt into open conflict. With Speaker Bryni dead and Ayal stepping forward to lead the I'Qosa, the stakes rise as the away team races to navigate the escalating crisis. Sulu’s emotional farewell to Ayal aboard the Enterprise marks a poignant moment in a story that deepens the personal cost of diplomacy in a fractured world. Written by Jim McCann and brought to life by Silvia Califano’s expressive art and Sebastian Cheng’s vivid colors, this issue delivers a powerful blend of tension and humanity. The cover by Stephen Thompson captures the gravity of the moment with striking detail.
