Their mission is new. Their legacy is not.
From the pen of fan-favorite writer Christopher Cantwell (Star Trek: Defiant, Star Trek: Red Shirts) and the brush of psychedelic standout Dennis Menheere (Etheres, Little Nightmares) comes the launch of an all-new flagship... and this time, we're busting out of the four quadrants.
The Enterprise-G is on a desperate mission beyond the known Galaxy to relocate the dying Avuran people when its crew finds a perfect new home in a region of unknown space called the Epsilon Corridor. Three pristine Class-M worlds — the Trinity — await the refugees. No signs of civilization. No

Aug 07, 2026Star Trek #1 had me questioning why I haven’t been reading the franchise’s main stories over the years. Christoper Cantwell brings his Star Trek expertise in crafting a story that is action-packed and emotionally resonate, while Dennis Menheere illustrates chaotic scenes that prove the unknown is not to be messed with.

Aug 03, 2026Ultimately, Star Trek #1 is an incredible comic. Yes, being a long time Trek fan will help understand the intricacies of things, but Cantwell and Menheere have created a story that is both past and future that is both reverent and revolutionary. The first issue sets a glorious stage and it’s clear by the time that you get to the final page that it’s warp speed ahead from here. Read Full Review

AIPT - David Brooke
Aug 12, 2026This new Star Trek #1 feels ambitious from the start, pairing Seven of Nine with a crew steeped in franchise history before sending them toward genuinely uncharted territory. Christopher Cantwell takes time to establish the emotional lives of the crew, plants mysteries for later, and gives the central mission a wonderfully strange science-fiction hook. Dennis Menheere elevates it all with gorgeous layouts and atmospheric visuals that capture both intimate character moments and the sheer spectacle of space exploration. Star Trek boldly charts an exhilarating new frontier. Read Full Review

Aug 12, 2026Overall, Star Trek #1 is an excellent start to what could be a very exciting new chapter in the Star Trek universe. It brings together the history of Star Trek while giving Seven of Nine the opportunity to finally step into the spotlight and command the Enterprise-G. There’s enough character, emotion, beautiful artwork, and mystery here to keep me invested. For a franchise celebrating 60 years, Star Trek #1 feels like a pretty damn good way to start the next chapter. Read Full Review

Comic Watch - Zoe Gifford
Aug 11, 2026All in all, this shapes up to be a very promising series. The art is dynamic (Although the coloring occasionally draws darker skin shades as more grey than brown and I would prefer all text to be facing at least within 30 degrees of the normal axis of reading, thank you very much!) and I am excited to see just what type of Captain Seven will be. I look forward to seeing where and when this series will take us, to learning more about the characters, and seeing just what it has to say. Read Full Review
