On the whole 2000AD's Sci-Fi Summer Special is a mixed bag, two stories that didn't really make the grade, but the remaining four made up for it. It's certainly worth putting your hand in your pocket and buying yourself a piece of dystopian summer to put a smile on your face today.

Pacing is quite quick, although I wouldn't have minded a few extra pages to expand a little more on the main character and to get a little more info on the in game Animus we see at the beginning.

You can feel Chris Ryall expertly weaving these threads together in this penultimate issue; everything is coming together so well you can feel yourself smiling come the closing pages. Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency shines in the hands of Chris Ryall. Given that we also are treated to some excellent art, inking and colours from Ilias Kryiaszis, John Livesay and Leonard O'Grady (respectively), issue #4 is quite fantastic.

As a complete package Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency has been rather brilliant! Yes when I heard this series was starting without the Douglas Adams pen behind this story I had my doubts, but they were rapidly put to bed, and yes I initially moanedthat Dirk looked a lot like David Tennant and again come issue #2 Dirk just became Dirk. Knowing there is not only another comic book series but a possible TV series on the way has made me a very happy person.

The Salmon of Doubt is truly fantastic! As an opening issue for this new series I am already hooked and ready to be reeled in, as all involvedcomic have delivered something splendid. I'm just sad I've got to wait a month to read #2 now.

Dirk Gently: The Salmon of Doubt #2 is an excellent comic. I'd say words cannot describe how brilliant it is but I think I've just gushed nearly four-hundred of them! If the Adams estate are thinking of releasing another Dirk Gently novel, I'd instantly recommend Arvind for the role now. You all need to buy this Dirk Gently comic!

Another excellent issue, though I want to know more about the world Sally keeps finding herself in, and also what is this fantasy world Bernice the Cat has become cornered within; though I suspect these answers will come soon enough.

Following Bartine around and seeing that all her decisions may not be completely dealt out by the universe is rather interesting, though I'm already looking forward to the moment were Ross realises that the Universe always comes out on top. Then along with this we get a short introduction to how Ken entered the whole Holistic universe;this comic is a rather splendid break from the norm.

As ever the art and colours from Ilias Kyriazis and Charlie Kirchoff is just excellent for the Dirk Gently series of comics, they both capture the energy and pace of this series to a tee. Along with both their work a special mention must be given for the Blackwing Files photo cover. Normally I like to highlight another artist's cover, but for fans of the T.V. Series and the comic book this one needs to be looked at carefully.

For those keen-eyed spotters out there, you'll be sure to pick up on a few subtle (or not) moments within these covers. From Adventures in Space and Time, Mr. Microwave seems to be possibly be related to another computer from the Douglas Adams Universe and Younger Dirk's come down involves a resident of Skaro. Keeping your eyes open reveals numerous treasures.

Dirk Gently - A Spoon Too Short shows the legacy of Adams is still flowing strong.

Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency: A Spoon Too Short #2 is another great addition to this series. We have nice nods to Douglas Adams in the book, we've got some amazing art, and we have a mystery that's unfolding with some excellent humour plus a wee bit of worldly education to boot. You'd do well picking this comic book up.

Dirk Gently: A Spoon Too Short #3 should be in the hands of any Douglas Adams fan, as it has clearly been written by one of his biggest. Go and buy it today.

Dirk Gently:A Spoon Too Short #4 is another brilliant chapter in this series. Arvind, Ilias and Charlie are honestly delivering something fantastic.

With Paul Cornell being a seasoned Doctor Who writer you have an instant feeling of reassurance that he shan't be delivering a generic sci-fi tale with Doctor, TARDIS and Dalek crammed into the story to make it slightly fan pleasing. We're also given some brilliant artwork from Neil Edwards and a superb palette from Ivan Nunes, making Doctor Who: Four Doctors the comic you need to buy.

As mentioned in my last review I wanted to see more of what is going on with the War Doctor; this thread has really snagged me the most and to be once again teased with only a few panels is just plain mean. Still now that all three Doctors have arrived at Marinus, it looks like our future issues will wrap around this. Due to the running through the streets " as with running through corridors " it's the minor lines given that are very important and the lines come from the mouth of the Twelfth Doctor as he snaps at the Tenth for his attitude, or when he believes that others see him as the "Scary Doctor". However, it is a running through streets issue and albeit occasionally interesting, when they finally left the streets " and stopped running " the comic became considerably better.

Paul Cornell just took Doctor Who: Four Doctors and made everybody whisper, "WTFlip!" at the final panel. It's quite clear you need to be reading Doctor Who: Four Doctors now!

Another storming chapter in the Doctor Who: Four Doctorsseries and I cannot wait to read the final issue!

Doctor Who: Four Doctors has been an excellent series and one you should have read.

For those, like myself, that feels rather let down that their Christmas Day tradition won't be happening again this year I'd wholeheartedly recommend picking this Doctor Who: The Thirteenth Doctor Holiday Special up today.

This, thanks to all at Titan Comics, is the Doctor Who Christmas Special we've deserved for the past couple of years. You cannot let these two comic books pass you by " they're both fantastic and are needed in any Doctor Who fan's collection.

For fans who have been into Doctor Who, if you pick this up you'll be pleasantly surprised and if you're new to the series and don't mind aliens trying to destroy the planet and humorous protagonists who somehow just managed to scrape by on a daily basis then this is the comic for you!

Once again this issues month favourite is Storm Warning " The Relicby Leah Moore and John Reppion. A brilliant piece of work and added to this some beautiful and foreboding artwork and colouring from Foster and Swan, this story is becoming worthy of a trade paperback release. As a Quatermass fan, I cannot wait to see what happens in The Pits at the End of Hobbs Lane. Storm Warning " The Relicis outstanding.

While the end of Lawless completely sideswiped me, and I was left smiling, I have to give the trophy once again toStorm Warning " The Relicwhich is penned by Leah Moore and John Reppion. Here is a strip which feels like it's set in the 200 yards from the end of any street in the UK, and not a grotesque far in the future UK. This is a "down the road" Judge Dredd Megazine story, which makes it that more disquieting. Rolled on top of this of course is " as mentioned " the perfect artwork and colours from both Foster and Swan. This strip is worth the cover price alone in my own very humble opinion.

Judge Dredd " Terror Rising. This is already moving to be something fantastic! From the first time you see "Total War" sprayed across the wall, after the suicide bomber has just murderer the Judge, your mind screams, "No! Wait!". John Wagner has let these sleeping dogs stay quiet, allowing us to forget them and now they've awoken. I cannot wait to see what's around the corner.

Again this month it's Judge Dredd " Terror Rising. John Wagner has caught me already at chapter two and I can see a storm coming over the horizon as well as one brewing closer to home. With the artistic talents of Colin MacNeil and Chris Blythe running alongside this story, this is something I already looking forward to next month.

Also a special acknowledgement has to also be given to Ryan Brown's rather excellent #367 cover " this month " which is just perfect for the Dust story inside.

Both Judge Dredd stories are honestly worthy ofTale of the Monththis time however to pick one I'm throwing my dart into Dust, for two months now Arthur Wyatt has delivered a solid Dredd tale that has caught my attention and hooked me in, along with the excellent work from Ben Willsher and Chris Blythe this whole story looks and reads brilliantly.

Another difficult month to pick who's the winner, however I'm going to stump with the new name in the Megazineand give it to Realm of the Damned. Though Dust was a very close second place, but with the energy, dark humour and art from both Alex Worley and Pye Parr my choice this month is a clear winner.

Quite easy this month, it's clearly Realm of the Damned. This strip looks stunning in its appearance and the story is unfolding into something truly wonderful. A tale of family deceit, terrifying horror and some wondrous humour.

Judge Dredd: Titan does have a climactic battle, however this isn't where our war is truly raging – that is within the skull of our protagonist. This book is a 2000AD story that should both be owned and remembered as it is vitally important in the evolution of our lawman.

To sum up if it wasn't for Rachel Stott's artwork this comic really wouldn't be a pleasant experience at all, but this is only the first hiccup in the Five Year Mission run so it's not all bad.

A better closing chapter than its opener, but I'd have preferred it to be given more breathing room so we would have had more peril from the Tholains. Still, I'm guessing in a few issues down the line we'll be seeing them again soon.

Inside this issue of Star Trek #48 some great things happen. Not only are we getting to see the moulding of a future captain but we're seeing the shaping of an uncharted Alpha Quadrant right before our eyes and it's all rather exciting.

Deity Part 2, though not as exciting as the opening chapter, is still a good read and anyone with a clear vision can see why the cards have beenlaid out in this pattern. Even so, the excitable lobe in my brain wanted ever so slightly more detail on the enigma that was the Crescent Ship.

This wonder aside we have Mike Johnson's story building and I am interested to see where this is going, along with this Tony Shasteen and Davide Mastrolonardo are delivering some impressive art as well as some brutal hair styles for the ISS bridge crew. With numerous interviews and features – after the main story – along with two brilliant covers, these all make #50 an anniversary issue that you need to have.

Part two of Star Trek"Live Evil" is an excellent comic and a lot of story has been piled into this issue. However I am getting that itch again for I'm wondering if there is going to be enough room to finish off this arcin just the one remaining issue, or whetherthe story be too compacted to be enjoyed.

Still this all being said Mike Johnson along with Tony Shasteen and Davide Mastrolonardo have delivered an enjoyable celebratory Star Trek three-parter and that is something that gets a thumbs up for me.

Star Trek: Reunion Part 1 is both fascinating and enjoyable and I'd like to see where Part 2 goes in this tale, but I think the colour of ashirt has decreed something already.

Star Trek #54 is both entertaining and interesting; we have the closing of Galia and the Kai story and also we quite possibly have the start of something much bigger.

The Legacy of Spock could be one of the greatest comic book tributes to Spock and Leonard Nimoy around, if it continues to build like this. The mood already set in Part One of this series is perfect and I'm looking forward to where Mike Johnson is going to take the rest of it.

This is a Star Trek story that you need to be reading! Such a very brilliant issue.

Star Trek: Legacy of Spock is clearly coming to a rather explosive and climatic ending next month, though I think I may have worked out what happened to Ceti Alpha VI!

If this collection arrives in a trade paperback I'd suggest you spend your money if you missed this series, as it's one you really shouldn't have.

Star Trek: Connection Part 1 is an enjoyable comic to have, though after the past few issues of Legacy of Spock and Manifest Destiny it does feel rather light. However,I guess we should give Mike Johnson time to breath.

Star Trek: Connection Part 2 closes off this short story rather nicely " it's not grand nor game changing, but it is an enjoyable Star Trek comic.

You must go out and buy the Star Trek: 50th Anniversary Cover Celebration. If you don't you'll regret it for a very longtime.

Considering I wasn't that big a fan of This Side of Paradise on television, John Byrne has managed to follow this episode up with something quite brilliant. One question I'd like clarifiedhowever is it Photoplay or Photomontage, as the cover says "Play" and theinner-cover says "Montage"?

The story is interesting, although not overly engaging however. The highlight of the story being that the Organian Treaty seems to be no longer in effect and the Klingons are aware of this " that and they've been testing the limits of the failing Organian Treaty for some time. Here is a nice pinch of something that John may be planning for a future story or two, and it's something I'm looking forward to knowing that the Klingons are planning on delivering Kirk to the Klingon Emperor.

Star Trek: New Visions - The Swarm is an excellent read and it's one that's worthy of picking up today.

The Hidden Face is another highly enjoyable tale from John Byrne and is one for all Original Series fans.

John has taken this spark even further; instead of seeing an ember fade away, he's given it a blast of pure oxygen making it grow into a bonfire for all to see. Ignoring the cover of this issue, it's great to see the return of New Visions.

Star Trek: TNG - Mirror Brokenalready looks like it going to be hailed as a classic.

As yet I can't say whether I'm fully on board with the series. I appreciate the slight insanity of it all and I really do adore the look, but am I desperate to read issue #2? Well I'm not on tenterhooks just yet.

Like the opening issue,Star Trek Vs. Transformers isn't (as yet) a winner. Though in its defence we've only just begun. Perhaps come next month all of these gripes (I have) will be a distant memory.

Star Trek / Green Lantern: Stranger Worlds is an enjoyable opener. I'm interested to see where it's going to go and what the pieces being brought out are set to do.

Star Trek / Green Lantern: Stranger Worlds #2will make you so excited for Issue #3! When it ends you'll possibly smile, or – like me – say a tiny swear word and wish you had Issue #3 ready to read.

Star Trek/Green Lantern: Stranger Worlds #3 is outstanding and we're only halfway through this series. Grab this off the shelves today for you really shan't be disappointed.

Another great release from the pen of Mike Johnson also a special mention must be given for Tony Shasteen's 'Retailer Incentive Cover' which is very good indeed.

Star Trek / Green Lantern: Stranger Worlds #5, is a truly excellent comic and anyone that has been involved in bringing this to the shelves needs to give themselves a well-earned thumbs up.

Before I close both additional covers need a word or two of praise. The fantastic 'Retailer Incentive' from Elizabeth Beals and the truly excellent 'Subscription Cover' from George Caltsoudas are just brilliant,try to seek those out if you can.

As with issue #1 Star Trek/Green Lantern is quite brilliant! With Mike Johnson (writer), Angel Hernandez and Alejandro Sanchez (art and colours) delivering an unbelievably fantastic comic book that leaves no time to breath and will you whip " at breakneck speed " through the pages. It is a perfect package of Star Trek and Green Lantern and as mentioned last month I don't even consider myself a Green Lantern fan, but here I am desperate already for Issue #3 of this comic series, alas however I now have to wait a very long month.

Turning to Mike Johnson's huge part in once again making this a crossover event to remember; not only has he created those scenes above " which will stick inside this skull for a longtime " but he's created a war in a universe that previously I knew nothing about, and now that it'sinside my head my brain screams to know more about what has gone on before. This issue is absolutely brutal, from the Gorn's newly discovered powers as he removes the heads of state to the take down of Decker's ship in the blink of an eye. There is nothing in the comic I'm expecting " everything is so refreshingly new! This comic is packed with so much energy I could stick a zinc and copper nail into it and power an alarm clock!

Once again Star Trek/Green Lantern: The Spectrum War shows you how a crossover comic should be done. Balancing between both Star Trek and the Green Lantern with ease, introducing new fans to a franchise and keeping current fans fired up. If you haven't started this series already you're really missing out.

Whatever you planned on buying today make sure you're also planning on buying this too!

Star Trek / Green Lantern Issue #6 is a perfect closing chapter to an utterly-perfect series and if you've missed any of this I'd really recommend you pick up the trade paperback if and when it hits the shelves.

Star Trek: Boldly Go is a perfect opener to a brand new Star Trek series and one you should be picking up.

If you haven't already (why not!?) started reading Star Trek: Boldly Go then you really need to, but if you are already reading it then I'm sure you'll agree that this is really rather brilliant.

Star Trek: Boldly Go #4 is an excellent closer to this opening chapter, and my fingers are crossed that the rest of this Star Trek series remains as strong as this.

Star Trek: Boldly Go #6 is a good comic; not ground-breaking and/or overly action-packed, but it's good nevertheless.

I'm enjoying these continuing voyages of the U.S.S Endeavour and I'm glad that IDW Publishing are giving Mike and Ryan the chance to really expand their Star Trek stories.

The conclusion of Murder at Babel isn't as exciting as I expected, whether this is down to IDW misprinting 1of3 or something else occurring in the background we're not privy to, but story arc really feels like it ended far too quickly.

Star Trek: Boldly Go is a very enjoyable read this month; and inoffensive story that shan't be shaking the rafters of Trek History – the Borg aren't here, there's no Q going toe-to-toe against the Prophets, it's just a simple tale about Kevin the Teenaxi and Roddenberry's Federation.

I'm interested to see where this episode takes us; the closing scenes of Star Trek Boldly Go #11 certainly pulled this issue back up to enjoyable.

This may not have been the strongest story in the Boldly Go series, but if Mike Johnson has really snuck on board the USS Heisenberg a rather malevolent Starfleet Officer, we could see an interesting story appear in the near future.

Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations is what every excellent Star Trek comic book should be. You have the crew, the banter, the energy, the mystery, the excitement and a cliffhanger to leave you hanging. This is a Star Trek comic.

Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations is just fantastic. Mike Johnson is making sure this Six Parter is going to be remembered for a longtime.

This all to one side mind you, it's fantastic that IDW Publishing is putting their trust in a series, whose source material finished on television some twenty-one years ago, and if we're being honest it was quite a divisive show for most Trek fans. I'm hoping now that they can turn their attention to Star Trek: Voyager and perhaps give us a limited twelve-issue run"please?

Too Long a Sacrifice #2 is an excellent comic book for Scott and David's story alone. I'm not a fan of the art, but I can easily let that go just because I'm truly invested in where this is going.

Star Trek: Deviations is an enjoyable read to take a break from the norm in the universeof Trek with the "what if?", but now I need to know "What happens!?"

Issue #1 of Star Trek: Discovery is quite excellent. Both Kirsten Beyer and Mike Johnson have realised that the Star Trek Universe is no longer about the bridge of a Federation vessel, and with this knowledge they've brought something fantastic to the table.

My fingers are crossed that Star Trek: Discovery " Aftermath picks up in the next two coming issues. Though I still feel that both Beyer & Johnson cramming this in before Spock went beardless, seems " to me " somewhat wasted for a Pike & Co Enterprise comic book special.

Other that the artwork of Issue #2 of Star Trek: Discovery – Aftermath there is honestly nothing else to poke holes in. The story has most certainly picked up, to the point I really want to read Issue #3 and I'm honestly hoping for a Captain Pike and Crew comic book series – along with a television series too, of course.

With L'Rell being held as an enemy of the Empire by the faction of disgruntled Klingons calling themselves the Shadows of Kahless, the Federation/Klingon Peace Treaty is rapidly moving further out of sight. Elsewhere upon the frozen planet Vaset III, Spock is carrying the wounded Pike to safety before he can secure help from the Enterprise for both his injured Captain and the delegation. Though following a mumbled command from Captain Pike, Spock's orders are directed away from the Enterprise and to rescuing the Mother of the Empire.

Hell's Mirror is a definite "Must Buy!". You can't let this one shot go as a Star Trek fan, you need it in your collection.

Star Trek Manifest Destiny #1 needs to be bought. I cannot sing the praises of this comic enough.

Another excellent issue for the Star Trek: Manifest Destiny series.

Star Trek: Manifest Destiny #3 is outstanding, vicious and one that any fan of the Klingon race should be picking up.

Yes, we didn't get a movie tie-in for Star Trek Beyond this year, however after this storming, vicious and beautifully brutal "Welcome home Klingons!" treat instead, I'm more than happy that Mike Johnson, Ryan Parrott and Angel Hernandez all sat down together to make something this fantastic.

There is a glimpse of two tales given at the end: a Rand story "Should Old Acquaintance Be Forgot" and "Time Out of Joint". Both have already sparked interest in me and I'm looking forward to see what they deliver in Issue #16. Overall The Traveler is a good releasethat is worth picking up; yes it is slightly let down by one recurring problem, but this shouldn't sway you away from it.

As I said above Time Out of Joint is the true seller here, with Home and Those Who Play With Cats being some excellent wrapping paper and a splendid bow for this gift. John Byrne has really shown off his talents as both a Star Trek story writer and a person who knows how to do a good photoplay.

Star Trek: New Visions – "What Pain It Is To Drown" is an excellent issue and it is truly one to pick up.

The Hunger is a great Star Trek story. John has brought to the pages " once again " a classic piece of Trek and it's something I've really enjoyed reading, not only that I also enjoyed his 'nod and wink' to Stan Lee and Jack Kirby too. This is certainly a Photoplay that is worth spending hard cash on.

Star Trek: Picard " Countdown is just brilliant! Already both Mike Johnson and Kirsten Beyer have captured everything that was fantastic about Star Trek: TNG and delivered just a taster in the opening issue. Add on top of that the magnificent Star Trek artwork from both Hernandez and LaFuente and you have here one excellent comic book.

Star Trek: Picard " Countdown issue #2, is once again an excellent comic book to read. This "Countdown" prelude is honestly filling me with a lot of hope for the upcoming TV series and for that I think the team involved need a big thank you.

That being said Star Trek: Picard " Countdown has been a good series from start to finish, with the writing team of Kirsten Beyer, Mike Johnson tapping into their years of Trek knowledge and leaving enough breadcrumbs to show what's possibly in store for season one of Star Trek: Picard. On top of this the constantly strong artwork and colours for Angel Hernandez and Joana Lafuente has made this series an absolute please to read.

Star Trek: Starfleet Academy is both an enjoyable and interesting start forwhat could be a great new crew in an excellent series of comics; even for us readers that have seen a few more moons than others.

Star Trek: Starfleet Academy #2 is both enjoyable and interesting, but I can shake the feeling that they are going to finish off the opening story rather quickly and I'm hoping over the next few issues that they will prove me wrong.

Issue #3 of Star Trek: Starfleet Academy is quite excellent! It's good to see the Cadets are not infallible, but at the same time they are grounded with morality, compassion and the want to put themselves on the line for others. Along with the USS Slayton conspiracy being brought into the light, this comic is fantastic read.

After last month I thought, 'This is it, this is the bar setter.' However now, issue #4 has come along and shown us that Star Trek: Starfleet Academy is an excellent read and it's getting betterall thetime.

The other standout moments " as always " relate to the work of Derek Charm, for which I'd love to see his art more across the IDW Publishing universe. Perhaps his arm could be twisted so he could do a stint on the main Star Trek run for a month or two?

Star Trek: The Next Generation: Terra Incognita #1 is just excellent. I'll be utterly honest when I say my hopes weren't high when I read the synopsis for this, but here I am at the end of issue #1 desperately wanting the second.

Star Trek: TNG "Terra Incognita" #2 is a fantastic read; the Tipton Brothers took it somewhere I really didn't expect and with the great artwork from Carlos and Fran, this is definitely a series you should have already started.

Star Trek: The Next Generation: Terra Incognita keeps getting better and better. If anyone asked me, "which was the best Trek story for 2018?", I'd probably point at Terra Incognita before anything else.

Though not as a exciting nor powerful as previous issues, you cannot fault it for most definitely being a Star Trek story. It's not the strongest entry in the series so far, but certainly not bad by a longshot.

This is an interesting opening to hopefully a great Star Trek series. There's a seed of a mystery already planted here and we've just got to hope that it blooms magnificently.

Star Trek: Through the Mirror is certainly something to pick up. This Tipton Brothers have made me very interested in this overlapping story already, and added to that the use of different artistic talents for the Prime Universe pages has left me as pleased as Punch. If "Through the Mirror" carries on like this to the end it's going to be an outright winner.

After being somewhat excited by the opening two issues of 'Through the Mirror', I feel that issue #3 has somewhat been a bit of a mild let down. Perhaps my old Trek imagination was running wild and I filled in the blanks with thoughts of a Super-I.S.S. Enterprise to take on the Emperor's ship, that or a Borg weapon was being constructed in the Mirror Universe with the specialist equipment stolen. Instead, discovering it was for nothing more that Ferengi-like profit and favours" well, I obviously was expecting more.

Though not outstanding, the art within really added to the story and that most definitely brings it up to enjoyable.

Star Trek: Through the Mirror is a rather disappointing close to a series that has skirted around the enjoyable over the last month. A shame really, perhaps it's time the Mirror Universe was left alone for a while.

Star Trek: Voyager " Mirrors & Smoke has been worth waiting for. It's just a shame that it's a one shot, as the cliffhanger we've been left with is just unfair. Also, I would honestly love to see the further adventures of Star Trek: Voyager arrive upon the pages of IDW Publishing. With Netflix letting the Trek fanbase know that this once underdog is now the most popular Star Trek show being watched on their streaming service, this must be a good enough reason to test the waters with a limited series at least?

We have here a brilliant Star Trek: Voyager comic book, one everyone needs to buy. You need to pick this up today, thanking all involved whilst you're doing it.

With Puzzles andDaylilywe have a decent level of maturity already flowing through the comic, which is great to see. If this six-part series continues on the path it's treading then I can see Star Trek: Waypoint becoming an excellent series, so you're going to want to make sure you pick this up.

Wrapping "Legacy" up " with a rather splendid bow " is the artwork from Rachael Stott and the colours from Mark Roberts. I'm already a fan of Rachael Stott's art and I'm constantly asking for more of it in the world of Star Trek, so to see it appear in Star Trek: Waypoint has placed a smile on my bearded face.

Star Trek: Waypoint #3 isn't the strongest release in the series so far.The Wildman Maneuver just really wasn't my cup of tea, though Mother's Walk did manage to bring it back up at the end.

The only real saving grace in this comic is Zachary Baldus cover, which in truth has nothing at all to do with the contents of the comic, this and Fran Gamboa's art for The Fragile Beauty of Loyalty. The rest of the comic isn't good at all. This is disappointing as now we've had two Waypoint comics which are below par, so we really need this title to pick itself up and dust itself off before it really gets counted out!

It's good to see that Star Trek: Waypoint is back on track.

There are truly no negatives about this issue " my only disappointment comes from the fact I shan't be seeing anymore Star Trek: Phase II from the pen of Hardman, nor will Bechko & Herndon be delivering anymore Trek stories anytime soon. Truly a fantastic Star Trek comic book.

If like myself you're not a big lover of Valentine's Day and considered giving this a miss don't. It's certainly not all "Fluff'n'Stuff" " if anything it's a tale of a Captain lost to both love and to Starfleet.
