This is just awful. The art, for the most part, is two dimensional looking and crummy. A lot of the blame goes to the dreadful digital inking and coloring. But even Michaelangelo couldn't have saved this storyline. It reads like fanzine fiction from the 80's. Just awful. Avoid!

It's just a comic bookOctober 30, 2009 M. Hester(Trinity, AL) 5 out of 22 found this review helpful
Before you purchase this "book" be forwarned that it is just a lousy comic book (and a pitifully written one at that). I was fooled by the fact that it was described as a paperback. An author could have taken the alternative timeline premise of this "book" and created a very entertaining novel. Instead what you have looks like it was written by 13 year old fan nerds. Don't waste your money. I feel like I was robbed. It didn't deserve even the one star I gave it, but it's the lowest rating I could give it.

In Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, peace talks between the Klingon Empire and the Federation officially begin at the Khitomer conference. But in this story, the life of the Federation President was not saved, so that 70 years later, the members of what we normally think of as the crew of the USS Enterprise NCC-1701-D and -E are the leaders of a resistance movement against the Klingons, except for Worf, who is the Klingon overlord of Earth.
Strangely enough, the only one who knows how history should have played out after Khitomer is Data. In this new timeline, Data's creator specifically programmed him to find a weakness in the Klingons' defenses. What he finds instead is unbelievable: Braxton, that pesky timeship captain from the 29th century, has gone back in time to change history.
Picard deduces that in order to restore the timeline to normal, they will need the use of a ship (if you're a Trekkie you know where this is going!). The USS Excelsior, still under command of Captain Sulu, one of the only Starfleet ships left, comes to everyone's assistance. But when they finally do go back in time, Captain Kirk's Enterprise is not where it's supposed to be, so now it's up to Picard's crew to save the conference the way Kirk's crew did.
If I reveal too much more, I'll spoil everything. Let's just say that it doesn't end in the way that I had hoped.
