IDW has announced that it is continuing its celebrations for the 50th anniversary of Star Trek by boldly launching a new anthology series this September entitled Star Trek: Waypoint, which will honour the legacy of the various Starfleet crews which have inhabited the Star Trek universe over the past five decades. From Captain Kirk to Archer, and everyone in between, each issue of Star Trek: Waypoint will feature brand-new stories starring fan-favorite characters written and drawn by some of today’s top talents.
The debut issue will feature contributions by Donny Cates (The Paybacks, Interceptor), Mack Chater (The Fuse), and Sandra Lanz (Prophet) with more exciting stories by all-star creators to be announced soon! Cates and Chater will team on the lead story set during Star Trek: The Next Generation era which sees Geordi La Forge and Data put their scientific minds together to decipher a mysterious ship’s coded message. Their discovery may alter the course of scientific human history as we know it! Lanz will write and illustrate the back up taking place during Star Trek: The Original Series and shines a spotlight on Uhura as she navigates a strange planet. Stranded, she attempts to make contact with a bizarre alien creature.
Set a course for your local comic shop this September when Star Trek: Waypoint gets underway.
