Star Trek: New Visions Special: The Cage

John Byrne writes and illustrates a photorealistic comic adaptation of the original Star Trek pilot, "The Cage," for IDW in 2016. This single-issue special uses stills from the unaired episode to retell Captain Pike's first mission, offering a unique visual bridge between the TV series and the comics medium. As part of Byrne's New Visions series, it stands as a faithful, cinematic tribute to the franchise's earliest story.
