The fallout from this summer's blockbuster movie STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS continues here, in the fan-favorite ongoing series overseen by TREK writer/producer Roberto Orci! Kirk and the crew of the Enterprise face a dire new threat rising in the wake of the movie's momentous events!
Overall, this is a very short issue. The story does not progress very much though we do learn some interesting nuggets about our Roluman and Klingon enemies. I was disappointed at the length. I read close to a dozen different comic book series and this issue felt like one of the big ones but as I've noted, it's a very quick read. Star Trek #22 lacks density but I suppose not every issue can reveal something Earth shattering. Part of the lack of depth for this issue might have to do with its focus on Spock's Pon Farr. As an avid TrekkierTrekker, this is old news to me but the Roluman and Klingon story lines are unique due to the altered time line. If the series begins to focus on those plots more, then I think each issue will feel denser and more intense. Read Full Review
Star Trek #22 doesn't dig deeper into the character development of the Star Trek cast. Rather than extrapolating on the characters from the films, it makes similar mistakes in not testing the characters' moral judgement, and just features the most defiant and begrudging Starfleet Officers that presently exist.

This series has had enough bright moments that one can forgive the misstep of Star Trek #22. But let's all hope that Spock has sex soon so we can move on to better stories. Read Full Review
