Alexander's cha'DIch Worf has tasked him with a near-impossible task for his Errand of Valor: rescue the workers rebelling against a deuterium mega-power, Archanis Inter-Corporate. He must fight selflessly in the name of the helpless... even if it costs him his life. If that weren't enough of a challenge, a face from Alexander's bloody past appears to test where his heart truly lies. Meanwhile, in the minefield of the Alpha Quadrant, Ro, B'Elanna, and O'Brien find themselves in a stalemate between the Cardassians and Section 31 that could end explosively.
Star Trek: Defiant #23 is a standout issue that combines emotional depth, cultural exploration, and poignant character development. Worf and Alexander's journey is as heartfelt as it is compelling, while the broader themes of justice and compassion resonate deeply. Though the B-plot feels underutilized, the exceptional artwork and thoughtful writing make this a must-read for fans of both Star Trek and meaningful storytelling. Read Full Review
