Publisher's description:

Arc five of the acclaimed Star Trek ongoing comic series, and the build-up to Star Trek: Lore War, continues here! The android Lore has done the unthinkable: He has detonated the Orb of Destruction, unmaking the universe!

After an extragalactic tumble on the ensuing shockwave, the U.S.S. Theseus sinks into fluidic space. There, the crew melds in and out of a manifold of realities. In its escape from the Delta Quadrant, the Theseus has landed in an unknown sector of space that appears safer—if 100 years younger—than their own. There, the crew receive a signal from an oncoming ship: the U.S.S. Enterprise. Captain James T. Kirk is hailing!

Benjamin Sisko is against a godkiller once again, but this time it’s up to him alone to save reality itself! Volume 5 collects Star Trek issues #25–30 by writers Collin Kelly & Jackson Lanzing with artists Liana Kangas, Angel Hernandez, Mike Feehan, Tess Fowler, and Travis Mercer.

Publisher's description:

Join Captain Janeway and the Voyager crew in four tales of adventure and intrigue!

First, in Seven’s Reckoning, a chance encounter with a reptilian alien race draws Seven of Nine and the rest of the U.S.S. Voyager crew into an ancient class conflict that's on the brink of exploding into all-out war! Set during Star Trek: Voyager's amazing fourth season, Seven finds her newfound humanity in conflict with her commitment to the Prime Directive. When she finally makes her choice, will it have the desired result? And will there still be a place for her aboard Voyager once the dust clears? By writer Dave Baker and artist Angel Hernandez.

Then, in Mirrors and Smoke, it’s 2372. Rebel ship Voyager—captained by Kathryn Janeway, an escaped slave from a brutal Cardassian mining facility—is flung halfway across the universe. Stranded in the Delta Quadrant, Janeway and her ragtag rebel crew are faced with a choice: find their way home, or quietly forge a new life far away from Klingons, Cardassians, and the Rebellion? Janeway chooses the third option. Voyager will stay. Voyager will plunder. The Delta Quadrant will be hers, and she will be its Pirate Queen. By writer Paul Allor and artist J.K. Woodward.

Closing out this omnibus are two short stories, “The Wildman Maneuver” from Star Trek: Waypoint by writer Mairghread Scott and artist Corin Howell and “The Swift Spoke” from Star Trek: Waypoint Special 2019 by Malachi Ward and Matt Sheehan.

Experience The Burn in This Week's New Comic Series!

Star Trek: The Last Starship #1

This week, an exciting new series debuts from the minds of Collin Kelly and Jackson Lanzing, creators of the lauded Star Trek (2022) comic series. Star Trek: The Last Starship takes place during the infamous "Burn," when dilithium matrices across the galaxy failed catastrophically, leading to the collapse of civilizations across all four quadrants! I'm personally very excited for this story, and am very much looking forward to reading it!

Official synopsis:

The Federation has fallen. Hope is fading. One last starship remains to fight for the future... unless a resurrected James T. Kirk dooms it first.

Fresh off the run Screen Rant calls one of "the greatest eras in the history of Star Trek comics," writers Jackson Lanzing and Collin Kelly along with rising star and artist Adrián Bonilla (Alkaios, Let Her Be Evil), now bring you a new mission the likes of which comics have never seen before.

For seven centuries, the United Federation of Planets brought together the entire Galaxy with peace, stability, enlightenment, and the promise of mutual protection. And then, in one terrible moment, it all crumbled in an event known as THE BURN, a Galaxy-wide disastrous event in which dilithium has gone inert, causing the detonation of every active warp core. The only ship remaining is a hack-and-slash Enterprise-Omega and its ragtag crew. Facing a true Wild West in space, the crew will need to make use of what few resources they have to uphold Starfleet’s mission of unity across the universe... and Captain Kirk will have to face a future without the Federation he loved so dearly...

Publisher's description:

The crew of the U.S.S. Cerritos is back in a new ongoing comic series that’s a big, fun adventure from the hit TV show Star Trek: Lower Decks.

First up, a mysterious ghost ship appears just in time, as Mariner is becoming increasingly frustrated by the lack of thrills aboard the Cerritos! The thrill level increases significantly when the team is beamed onto an equally mysterious surface of an unknown world populated by an alien race that wishes to learn more about mentorship…through a battle royale! Enter Jadzia Dax, Montgomery Scott, Kathyrn Janeway, T’Pol, and Jean-Luc Picard as the mentors and the Lower Deckers as the mentees!

The Cerritos’ next mission is a supply run to Tavela Minor, but they first need to stop by the Alecto system to get some supplies to, uh, supply them with. However, just before they warp, they see the Alecto system isn’t only missing; it doesn’t exist. Like at all. Now they have a space mystery at hand: What could cause a whole star system to disappear?

Then, suspicious after the Cerritos docks for its second baryon sweep in the same year, Mariner sneaks into a command meeting. There, the Department of Temporal Investigations tasks the crew with finding a time traveler who is rewriting Federation history at an alarming rate. Mariner finds her friends and tells them what’s really going on…only for the timeline to change around them! Obviously, something has gone wrong with Command’s mission, and per usual, it’s now up to Mariner, Tendi, Rutherford, and Boimler to save the day!

Volume 1 collects issues #1–6 of the new ongoing series.
