IDW announces Star Trek: The Mirror War

May 21, 2021 by Gary Collinson

IDW Publishing has announced it is inviting readers to witness what the galaxy could be like at the mercy of a Captain Picard whose greatness is measured in cunning and cruelty, courtesy of an all-new year-long comic book event titled Star Trek: The Mirror War.

From writers Scott and David Tipton, The Mirror War will delve deep into the lore of the fan favourite Mirror Universe, kicking off with Star Trek: The Mirror War #0 which features a new story of “Mirror Picard” as he’s summoned to Earth to face the wrath of his emperor, deftly weaving threads from past Mirror Universe tales in a way entertaining to newcomers and the initiated alike.

The main series will then launch in September, with issues #1-8 and four interspersed tie-in specials, each highlighting a different member of The Next Generation crew, delivering a 13-part saga which will chart Mirror Picard’s path of conquest across all of the Mirror Universe, stoking the wrath of the Klingon-Cardassian Alliance along the way.

“We’re absolutely thrilled to return to the Mirror Universe,” says Scott Tipton. “What’s in store for our Mirror Jean-Luc Picard and his Enterprise crew? New faces, new places, and old grudges. Picard’s ambitions are grander than ever, and nothing short of the throne itself will satisfy him!”

“In The Mirror War, we’ll be seeing what happens when Picard gets hold of information that can change the fortunes of the debilitated Terran Empire,” adds David Tipton. “The Enterprise crew will find themselves in positions of potential power and wealth like never before.”

“With Mirror Broken, Through the Mirror, and Terra Incognita, Scott and David Tipton — along with our Mirror War series cover artist J.K. Woodward — crafted a compelling and wholly original corner of the Star Trek universe. We’re excited to continue that tradition with The Mirror War, all while bringing new artists and storytellers into those Trek landscapes that fans love,” states editor Megan Brown.

Star Trek: The Mirror War #0 will go on sale in August 2021.
