A story set all through the James T. Kirk era. The art is wonderful; the characters are so fleshed out, they jump out of the book. Kirk's female Romulan counterpart kicks butt. Also, you get an alliance of convenience (that includes Klingons) turn into something more. By the way it is good to see Gillian (fron ST IV) doing so great in the 23rd century. If you are a ST fan, or just love good space opera, get this one.
WARNING: This review is a bit of a sham.

I say that because I'm going from memory - I had a copy of this when it first came out, but when the "Enterprise" premiere rekindled my interest in "Star Trek" a few weeks ago, I couldn't find it. I've ordered another copy, but it's not here yet, so I can only go on the fond memories that prompted me to reorder it.At any rate, I recall being especially fond of this GN for two reasons: one was that, unlike most of the Trek comic products coming out at the time, it had great art; the other was its nice nostalgic touches, like the appearance of Jamie Finney (from the classic episode "Court Martial") as a Starfleet officer. I'm very much looking forward to having it in my library again.
Impressive!

This is Chris Claremont's tribute to the original Star Trek, with a story that spans the time from Kirk's days on the Farragut to the time period after Star Trek IV. Several favorite old characters return, but this is not simply a two-bit rehash of old stories and characters: Kirk and company "explore strange new worlds;" they "seek out new life and new civilzations." Claremont boldly goes where no one has gone before. Highly recommended.
