Background information [ ]
- Andrew Steven Harris brought the DS9 IDW comic series about by including the series in the Star Trek Archives series, with the release of the Best of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine , a collection of the first DS9 comics published by Malibu Comics . [1]
- Harris commented that he thought the DS9 comics would not link into Pocket Books ' own Deep Space Nine relaunch series , stating " I would speculate that they will not interface with the DS9 Relaunch novels from Pocket Books. IDW has always been quite independent in its Trek storytelling, and I would expect that it will pursue its own creative path without the obligation to proactively incorporate the prose-novel efforts. IDW will probably do what it can to avoid actively contradicting such stories, but keep in mind that both producing comics and novels remains acutely work-intensive, and it's difficult enough already to keep in mind 168 episodes of the TV series, let alone what happens on every page of every novel that Pocket Books has ever published. Add to that the fact that Senior Editor Marco Palmieri has been laid off from Pocket without replacement and Paramount recently lost the encyclopaedic knowledge of Trek guru Paula Block , and you can start to imagine the difficulties involved ". [2]
- Tony Lee pitched a Star Trek: Deep Space Nine / Doctor Who crossover for IDW, entitled Domination . Lee was a consultant for Star Trek: The Next Generation - Doctor Who: Assimilation² . [3]
- Writer Declan Shalvey has expressed interest in writing a Star Trek: Deep Space Nine for IDW Publishing. Shalvey discussed his plans briefly with Chris Ryall . [4]

Celebrate the 30th Anniversary of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine with The Dog of War
The debut comic series by acclaimed author Mike Chen pays tribute to DS9 with a 'lost episode' ignited by canine calamity!

For some, returning to the mouth of a wormhole might seem like a dangerous proposition, but for others — notably fans of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine — it’s a dream come true!
To celebrate the three decades since the fan-favorite TV series debuted, IDW proudly announces the April 2023 launch of STAR TREK: DEEP SPACE NINE — THE DOG OF WAR , a wild new five-issue comic book miniseries bringing back everyone’s favorite space station crew.
![star trek deep space nine idw STAR TREK: DEEP SPACE NINE - THE DOG OF WAR #1 Cover A by Angel Hernandez](https://images.prismic.io/star-trek-untold/NjVhOTE0YWQtMTY5YS00ODg2LTlhYTItMDBiZmEwMGEyOGZm_star_trek_-_deep_space_nine_-_the_dog_of_war_1_-_cover_a_by_angel_hernandez_-_trade_dress.jpeg?auto=compress,format&rect=0,0,2063,3131&w=2063&h=3131)
THE DOG OF WAR marks the comic book debut of celebrated novelist Mike Chen ( Star Wars: Brotherhood , Here and Now and Then ), partnered with Star Trek comics artist extraordinaire Angel Hernández ( Star Trek: Picard — Stargazer , Star Trek: Discovery — Adventures in the 32nd Century ) to create a “lost episode” set within the timeline of the original Deep Space Nine show.
In the new miniseries, an extremely rare purebred corgi from Earth makes its way aboard Deep Space 9 when Quark cuts a deal to procure it for a potential buyer. After all, a Ferengi without profit is no Ferengi at all! But the corgi named Latinum comes with unexpected cargo that shakes Captain Benjamin Sisko to the core — a Borg component discovered by a crew sent to uncover Cardassian technology after the station’s reoccupation.
![star trek deep space nine idw STAR TREK: DEEP SPACE NINE — THE DOG OF WAR #1 Wraparound Cover B by Chris Fenogolio](https://images.prismic.io/star-trek-untold/ZjA5ZWVmYzktN2IyOS00YTZhLTg1ZGMtMDFmMDIzOWEzYTQ5_star_trek_-_deep_space_nine_-_the_dog_of_war_1_-_cover_b_by_chris_fenoglio_-_trade_dress.jpeg?auto=compress,format&rect=0,0,4050,3131&w=4050&h=3131)
“When editor Heather Antos asked if I liked DS9, my reply was, ‘You mean the greatest TV show ever made?’” says Chen. “I’m absolutely ecstatic to hang out with DS9’s misfits, and I hope that this story touches on all of the characters and intensity that made the show so powerful and great — Sisko’s history with the Borg, the Dominion War, Garak’s great outfits, Jadzia being Jadzia, Miles and Julian’s holosuite adventures, and so much more. Also, Quark gets a dog. If that doesn’t earn your latinum, I don’t know what will!”
“Entering the world of Deep Space Nine means discovering new nuances, new creatures, and new situations that are a wonderful visual and artistic challenge,” says Hernández. “I sincerely hope the fans get swept up in this Trek project, one overflowing with incredible ideas and very much keeping in the spirit of the TV show.”

“ Deep Space Nine is the defining Star Trek show for an entire generation of fans, so to be able to tell an additional ‘episode’ in comic form for the series’ 30th anniversary is extra special,” says Star Trek senior editor Heather Antos . “Mike Chen’s passion for the crew of this celebrated space station is unprecedented, and no one knows the visual world of Star Trek quite like Angel Hernández. Plus…who wouldn’t want dogs in Star Trek ?”
STAR TREK: DEEP SPACE NINE — THE DOG OF WAR #1 will be available in April with several variant covers for fans and retailers to enjoy, including Cover A by series artist Angel Hernández ; a wraparound Cover B by Chris Fenogolio , featuring the cast of Star Trek: Lower Decks ; and Cover C by longtime My Little Pony artist Andy Price (connecting with covers across all five issues to create an amazing diorama of DS9 characters with lookalike canine companions), plus special retailer incentives including a black-and-white variant of Hernández’ cover and two Deep Space 9 schematics variants with and without trade dress.

As Sisko returns in IDW's new flagship 'Star Trek' series, writers Jackson Lanzing and Collin Kelly weigh in (exclusive)
Benjamin Sisko is back from the Bajoran wormhole to save the galaxy from deadly god killers in IDW's Trektastic new series.
![star trek deep space nine idw Star Trek #2](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/mCF2CzVixqzx99sPXZ9Efg-320-80.jpg)
Accomplished comic book writers Jackson Lanzing and Collin Kelly ("Star Trek: Year Five," "Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty") are relishing their dream job of crafting compelling stories within the legendary sci-fi franchise for IDW Publishing's new "Star Trek" series starring "Deep Space Nine's" Commander Benjamin Lafayette Sisko.
Joining the veteran pair on this creative " Star Trek " odyssey is artist Ramon Rosanas (Marvel's "Star Wars,") and colorist Lee Loughridge ("The Batman Chronicles," "Deadly Class") in a planet-hopping mystery to discover why the cosmic gods are being murdered.

Star Trek (2022-) #1 ebook: $1.99 at Amazon
You can get issue 1 of the relaunched "Star Trek" from IDW for just $1.99 at Amazon for Kindle.
![star trek deep space nine idw Star Trek comic cover art with Sisko, Beverly Crusher and Data.](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/GV6fvySBnC5UUYcxJu6kCN-320-80.jpg)
Here’s the official synopsis:
"It's Stardate 2378, and Benjamin Sisko has finally returned from the Bajoran Wormhole omnipotent. But his godhood is failing with every minute. Sent by the Prophets on a mission to the deepest parts of space aboard the U.S.S. Theseus, he witnesses the unthinkable: Someone is killing the gods. And only Sisko and his motley crew of Starfleet members from every era of 'Trek' can stop them."
"Star Trek #1" landed on Oct. 26 and the second issue of this remastered "Star Trek" project featuring familiar characters pulled from all corners of the canon arrived today, Nov. 30, as "Star Trek: #2." Space.com chatted at length with its eager architects, Lanzing and Kelly, about their bold plans moving forward at warp speed and what inspired them to tackle this Sisko-centric series from IDW.
"We are the nerds who were playing Star Trek role playing games in our living rooms ten years ago and the kids who grew up and used it to bond with our parents," Lanzing tells Space.com. "'Star Trek' is a continuous element in both of our lives. It helped form our friendship. It's helped connect to our friends and family. A lot of people responded well to " Star Trek: Year Five ," and now seeing the response to the new launch, we’re extremely lucky to be here. Not a lot of people get to touch this IP, especially not in comics. It’s a very small group, so getting the chance to come in on it is a real privilege. We just need to do right by "Star Trek" and do the work that we as fans would want to see. Otherwise we’d bury ourselves under pressure."
"Deep Space Nine" holds a special place in both of the writers' hearts and they share a deep affinity for the Benjamin Sisko character. This was the only open story territory that gave them enough runway to do something with and was exactly what they hoped to do for nostalgia's sake, which was to bring Sisko back out of the wormhole and throw him into his next big adventure.

Star Trek (2022-) #2 ebook: $4.99 at Amazon
Issue 2 of "Star Trek" from IDW is available at its full ebook price for Kindle as of its Nov. 30 release.
"Sisko is the captain who doesn’t have his own show or his own feature film," Lanzing explained. "Avery Brooks seems like he has no intention of ever returning to the character. But his character specifically says he will return, in part because Avery Brooks himself was unhappy with the idea that the first Black captain was going to leave his son and disappear into the wormhole and become an absentee father. So he made them add a line that he was coming back. Then he never came back and so there's this giant question mark of what’s up with Sisko."
Lanzing and Kelly are approaching this project with a fan-first attitude, and their unbridled enthusiasm for the material is what people are most excited about.
"We just have to keep telling stories that continue to bring us passion," Kelly said. "'Star Trek' is this universal language we can all love and adore and take something out of. But if we start thinking of ourselves as bigger than that I think we'd collapse under the responsibility and legacy we’re now so privileged to be playing a part in."
Relating to this rebooted flagship series that finds Sisko returning as a god and gathering a legacy crew borrowed from the "Star Trek" universe, the writing duo has put a fresh wrapping on a popular fan-favorite character. Lanzing explains the idea:
"We turned in a three-page document for 'Star Trek' and we came in with a very simple phrase, of 'Someone is killing the gods.' Within 'Star Trek' that might feel like an odd way to pivot in. In talking about 'Star Trek' and what made it specifically not 'Star Wars' or 'Battlestar Galactica' is that it plays with species that exist far beyond our technological level. Species that don’t operate the way that we do, that have the technological equivalent of magic. Those things are never threatened in 'Star Trek.' They're always at the top of the food chain and if those start getting taken out, that means you can put in our favorite captain, a character we knew we wanted to center this book around … Benjamin Sisko, the Emissary of the Prophets."
![star trek deep space nine idw Star Trek issue 2 cover art showing a human hand and Klingon knife](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/gJ7C8fYDXnMUBuEJ4rcVSo-320-80.jpg)
Their elevator pitch was, "Let’s do an 'Avengers' with 'Star Trek,'" and pull characters from different eras by setting it in a time where most of these characters were alive. It's a notion that alludes back to Marvel's "Original Sin" and "Thor: The God Butcher."
"I wouldn’t say we were necessarily riffing off any of those iconic series, however, we are fans of comics first and foremost and we love the power of the crossover," Kelly added. "And "Star Trek" is really the first shared universe in modern big-budget storytelling. With our sister book, ' Star Trek: Defiant ,' which launches next year, there’s nothing more exciting than having them slam into each other."
Ramon Rosanas' illuminating, retro-cool artwork truly captures the authentic "Star Trek" tone and greatly enhances Lanzing and Kelly's carefully composed storyline.
" Art in 'Star Trek' comics has had a certain look for a very long time and there’s only a few artists who’ve done it and done it successfully," Lanzing notes. "When editor Heather Antos came in, her immediate goal was to try to take the "Star Trek" art style and push it well beyond what people were used to, and to open up a space for different kinds of comics artists to come in and play.
"Up until now, there’s been a push to make the art feel like the actors, the likenesses. But at any given time we should see Benjamin Sisko, not just Avery Brooks. Ramon is great at both. He really is a remarkable artist and he’s a lot more understated than people would think. Then Lee Loughridge is a colorist we’ve wanted to work with for ages. He’s got a great eye for it and pushes stuff forward."
Kelly feels that Loughridge's veteran contributions are essential for the book’s ultimate success.
"Lee fills in and creates a lot of texture and depth to Ramon’s pencils," he noted. "Ramon is not hyper-focused on detail in terms of likenesses, which lets Lee play, which is incredibly important to trust your artist. Especially when you think of ' The Original Series ,' which was a very colorful show. They were constantly slamming things with purple lights and hot green."
Moving forward into the second issue and beyond, two temporary artists take over for series illustrator Rosanas, each one with a slightly different take on the style.
![star trek deep space nine idw Star Trek issue 2 cover art showing Data's face.](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/WnumZjckedkh9BkQBbtz5h-320-80.jpg)
"Ramon is taking issues #2 and #3 off as he's doing a big crossover for #4, #5, and #6 later in the run," said Lanzing. "We have two one-off issues, #2 which takes readers deep into Klingon territory, and #3 is our Q issue. Knowing those were going to be two different tones, we brought in other artists to try some different stuff. Oleg Chudakov is going to be doing #2. He's a new Russian artist and much more expressive so you'll see that idea of pushing likeness before we lose the thread. Then we’ve got Joe Eisma, who did 'Morning Glories,' who’s an amazing artist and great at acting coming in to do Q before we bring back Ramon and settle into that tone."
Lanzing and Kelly are having a blast on this "Star Trek" title and the thrill is evident.
"We've been playing 'Star Trek' as a role-playing game for years so really one of the first jobs you have when thinking about 'Star Trek' is what pieces are on the table," Kelly adds. "Sometimes it's important to come in and build new things, but the danger can be getting so into the weeds that it can start to edge into fan fiction. We need to make sure our characters are earning it and everything is diegetic to the universe and the reality of 'Star Trek.'"
IDW Publishing's "Star Trek #2" lands on Earth on Nov. 30, 2022.

2023 will mark the thirtieth anniversary of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine , and IDW Publishing is going to be celebrating with a brand new comic mini-series, telling a “lost episode” of DS9.
The Dog of War
IDW’s new five-issue DS9 comic mini-series titled Star Trek: Deep Space Nine—The Dog of War will kick off in April 2023. It marks the comic book debut of novelist Mike Chen (Star Wars: Brotherhood, Here and Now and Then) , who is being partnered with veteran Star Trek comics artist Angel Hernandez (Star Trek: Picard—Stargazer, Star Trek: Discovery—Adventures in the 32nd Century) . Together they are creating a “lost episode” set within the timeline of the original Deep Space Nine series.
Here is the official synopsis:
In the new miniseries, an extremely rare purebred corgi from Earth makes its way aboard Deep Space 9 when Quark cuts a deal to procure it for a potential buyer. After all, a Ferengi without profit is no Ferengi at all! But the corgi named Latinum comes with unexpected cargo that shakes Captain Benjamin Sisko to the core: a Borg component discovered by a crew sent to uncover Cardassian technology after the station’s reoccupation.

More Sisko!
In October IDW launched a new ongoing series simply titled Star Trek which features Benjamin Sisko after his return from the Bajoran Wormhole (see TrekMovie review of issue 1 ). The second issue came out two weeks ago with new issues planned monthly.

It’s odd that, despite having its own proper logo and being set during the timeline of the series, they tacked on the TOS-style title logo treatment. It seems like a corporate synergy/licensing mandate.
OMG, I didn’t realize DS9 will be 30 years old next month. Man I feel so old lol. It’s just great to see the show is still as popular as ever and we are getting more stories about it all this time later like this comic series and it’s first reappearance in canon on Lower Decks. Hopefully there will be plenty more in the future as I’m sure there will be.

- Trivia Kira was a last-minute addition to the cast. The original plan was to include the Star Trek: The Next Generation (1987) character of Ro Laren, but Michelle Forbes didn't want to do a series at the time.
- Goofs In the first three seasons, CDR Sisko refers to his father in the past tense, even talking about his slow demise and death from some unknown ailment. But starting in the fourth season ("Homefront"), Joseph Sisko is alive and well running a restaurant in New Orleans. Joseph appears in a total of six episodes throughout the last 4 seasons.

Deep Space Nine: The Dog of War Issue 1 – Review
![star trek deep space nine idw Connor Schwigtenberg](https://trekcentral.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/cs_portrait_v2-96x96.jpg)
IDW may have just wrapped up Strange New Worlds: The Illyrian Enigma , but Star Trek comics never rest! The comic publisher has started Deep Space Nine: The Dog of War miniseries to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine . It’s been a few years since we’ve had some dedicated DS9 material, and as my favourite Trek series, any comic has a high bar to reach. Issue #1 of The Dog Of War is out now and available by all good comic book stores and Amazon .
Written by Mike Chen , a newcomer to Trek making his mark with the bold pitch, “What if Quark got a dog?”. He’s joined by artist Angel Hernandez, who brings this beautifully absurd pitch to life with panels that stayed in my head for hours. But just how does Mike Chen’s story fit into the show? Is it a worthy ‘missing episode,’ or would you be better off just rewatching the series? Let’s find out!
![star trek deep space nine idw](https://trekcentral.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Screen_Shot_2023-04-03_at_5.34.51_am-1024x320.png)
An Uninvited Guest and a Rogue Computer
The story opens with the station being searched for salvageable Cardassian resources to launch an offensive against the Dominion. From the Stardate, this story is placed before the episode “ Valiant ”, and from the appearance of Vic Fontaine in the holodeck, sometime after “ His Way ”. Late Season 6 is the perfect place to set an anniversary story for DS9 , at the peak of the Dominion War conflict, and still able to involve Jadzia Dax.
In searching, they track a Borg component to a holosuite. To the surprise of nobody, Quark has schemed his way into having a dog and a Borg headpiece. The whole thing is very in character for Quark. It’s exactly the sort of scheme he’d get caught up in. In fact, all the characters here are really well-written. Juggling and introducing a fresh plot, including all the characters, isn’t easy, but they make it work! I really look forward to the ongoing hijinks with the dog, who’s hilariously and in-affectionately named Latinum.
![star trek deep space nine idw](https://trekcentral.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Screen_Shot_2023-04-03_at_5.35.10_am-1003x1024.png)
Just how the dog and Borg components are connected remains to be seen. I don’t know who this mysterious buyer is, but knowing the shady depths of Quark’s connections, it could be anyone. The comic deliberately obscures their identity and that of an even more mysterious interloper. There’s something up with the Borg device, with even its function unknown. If there’s no danger of assimilation, then what could it be?
However, we know that the Borg never really had a role on DS9 . Whatever that connection is, it won’t lead the crew to the Borg Queen. If anything, it appears that it’s only of Borg origin to tap into Sisko’s trauma from the Battle of Wolf 359 . We’ve been exploring the legacy of Wolf 359 in Star Trek: Picard , too. There are some really powerful panels where the legendary Angel Hernandez’s art shines.
![star trek deep space nine idw](https://trekcentral.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Borg.png)
Where Do We Go From Here?
From the show’s story being told in full, we know that they don’t use Borg technology to eliminate the chain of command. We know they don’t command whole armadas with a thought. Something must go wrong, and with Sisko opting to test the device on himself, the possibilities are almost scary. O’Brien cites the events of the episode “ The Nth Degree ”, which could be a warning of things to come.
I’m also unsure what the dog is doing beyond being adorable. It’s fun to see all the alien characters interact with an element of human culture we don’t usually see. I’m sure it’ll all tie in with the device and the shadowy figures eventually, but it’s too early to tell. For the moment, I’m very happy to stare at the panels with the cute dogs. There’s one with Garak that put the biggest smile on my face. It’s all even cuter than I thought a comic could be. Easily the thing I’m most excited to see more of next time!
![star trek deep space nine idw](https://trekcentral.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Screen_Shot_2023-04-03_at_5.37.10_am-1024x299.png)
I’m more of a cat person, but this story may turn me. With cute animals and an intriguing mystery box plot to boot, it’s a lovely read. It’s certainly an intriguing setup, and I look forward to seeing where the plot leads. Loaded with the sort of fanservice that only an anniversary story can get away with, it’s a lot of fun for fans of the series. Not only is this a worthy addition to DS9 canon, but it’s a story that matches the peaks of the series’ later years.
You can find Deep Space Nine – The Dog of War Issue #1 in all good comic book stores. Additionally, it’s available both in print and digitally from Amazon and IDW’s website. For discussions of all things Deep Space Nine and coverage of IDW’s ongoing Star Trek comics, be sure to follow Trek Central!
In the next issue…

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine – ‘The Dog of War’ Issue #2
As Latinum the corgi begins winning over the hearts of the DS9 crew, Quark finds his own greed-filled heart touched by the large-lobed creature. But only a fool passes up a business opportunity! Meanwhile, Sisko tests the mysterious Borg component brought aboard the station in hopes of finding a tactical advantage in the war against the Dominion.

IDW celebrates 30 years of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine by giving the crew a dog
It's a very cute dog, and it carries a big secret
![star trek deep space nine idw Star Trek: Deep Space Nine - The Dog of War #1 cover](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/fiFT3fzJrgpyiHjQ3VSUSk-320-80.jpg)
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine is one of the most beloved entries among fans of the long-running sci-fi franchise, notably for the way the series balanced quirky, character-based plots with striking political intrigue. In 2023, to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Deep Space Nine's 1993 premiere, IDW Publishing is putting out a new limited series that aims to capture the feeling of a "lost episode" of the cult favorite show.
![star trek deep space nine idw Star Trek: Deep Space Nine - The Dog of War #1 cover](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/jrbxfmhekr7x398nHjro7f-320-80.jpg)
And from the looks of the plot of the five-issue limited series, titled Star Trek: Deep Space Nine - The Dog of War, writer Mike Chen (best known for his Star Wars novels) and veteran Star Trek artist Angel Hernandez are channeling both sides of the show's themes.
In The Dog of War, Quark (the Deep Space Nine space station's resident bar owner and entrepreneur) comes into possession of a rare, pure-bred Corgi (as in the dog). But when he brings the dog onto Deep Space Nine, it's discovered that it's also carrying a rare Borg component with it.
"I'm absolutely ecstatic to hang out with DS9's crew, and I hope that this story touches on all of the characters and intensity that made the show so powerful and great: Sisko's history with the Borg, the Dominion War, Garak's great outfits, Jadzia being Jadzia, Miles and Julian's holosuite adventures, and so much more," states Chen in IDW's announcement. "Also, Quark gets a dog. If that doesn't earn your latinum, I don't know what will!"
Latinum is, of course, a precious metal used as currency in the world of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. And true to form for the money-hungry Quark, Latinum is also the name of the station's new resident dog.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine - The Dog of War #1 goes on sale in April with covers from series artist Angel Hernandez, Star Trek: Lower Decks artist Chris Fenoglio, a series of connecting covers that will span all five issues by artist Andy Price, a black and white version of Hernandez's cover, and a pair of Deep Space Nine schematic variant covers with and without trade dress.

Star Trek Officially Brands a Surprising Deep Space Nine Hero as a War Criminal
Star trek's new warp drive breaks the prime directive in a way no-one expected, star trek isn’t supposed to have money: what is latinum.
- IDW celebrates 500 issues of Star Trek with a new variant cover featuring the adorable Borg, Latinum, alongside franchise icons.
- Star Trek #500, a one-shot anthology, showcases an all-star lineup of talent telling new stories, setting the bar high for Star Trek comics.
- Latinum's return in Star Trek #500's variant cover, with friends from various Star Trek titles, represents two years of big swings for IDW's Star Trek comics.
The cutest Borg in the Star Trek universe has returned alongside other franchise icons in an awesome new variant cover. This September, Star Trek Day comes early as IDW releases the epic Star Trek #500. This one-shot, commemorating 500 issues of Star Trek , will feature an all-star lineup of talent telling all-new stories. Now, IDW has released a variant cover showcasing Latinum, the cutest Borg ever.
IDW shared J.K. Woodward’s variant cover of Star Trek #500 with League of Comic Geeks . The cover features Latinum front and center, complete with Borg implants. Behind them are Ben Sisko, Worf and Ro Laren, who are currently starring in Star Trek and Star Trek: Defiant . They are flanked by Uhura, wearing her uniform from Star Trek: The Motion Picture: Echoes, as well as Beckett Mariner, Jake Sisko and Nog, all sporting their Sons of Star Trek looks (the issue also ships with covers by Jake Bartok and Joelle Jones).
Celebrate IDW’s 500th issue of Star Trek comics (and an early Star Trek Day!) with this landmark oversized anthology issue! This collection of five short stories spans through fan-favorite eras of the beloved franchise from Lower Decks to Strange New Worlds, legacy characters from The Next Generation and the original series, written and illustrated by Star Trek comics veterans and new voices alike. Plus, don’t miss out on the prelude to 2025’s big Star Trek and Defiant comic crossover event written by Jackson Lanzing, Collin Kelly, and Christopher Cantwell!
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: The Dog of War Was a Standout Miniseries
Idw has set the bar high for star trek comics.
For 18 years, IDW has held the rights to produce Star Trek comics, and in late 2022, gave them a shot in the arm with Star Trek #400. Much like #500, the issue was an anthology, and one of its stories planted the seeds for revitalization. The “god war,” which spanned the franchise and culminated in the Day of Blood event, has carried IDW’s Star Trek line to new heights. Beyond the two flagship titles, Star Trek and Star Trek: Defiant , IDW has released miniseries tying in with specific properties, such as Lower Decks and Strange New Worlds.
One of IDW's most memorable recent offerings was Star Trek: Holo-Ween , a special, weekly Halloween-themed miniseries that saw the return of Redjak from the Original Series.
One of the most memorable of IDW’s offerings was Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: The Dog of War. Released to coincide with the show’s 30th anniversary, and written by Mike Chen and drawn by Angel Hernandez, this “lost episode” introduced Latinum, a Corgi from Earth. The dog was sought by an intergalactic arms dealer, partially because Borg tech had been implanted in the dog’s body. While Latinum did not have any external Borg modifications, one of the book’s many covers did show this, and it caught on with fans.
Difficult decisions were made during Star Trek's Dominion War, and one in particular is coming back to haunt a member of Deep Space Nine's crew.
Latinum The Corgi's Return is a Cause for Celebration
Latinum helps celebrate 500 issues of star trek at idw.
Some fans have made jokes connecting Borgs and Corgis, and now the meme has been made literal.
Now Latinum has returned to help Star Trek celebrate another comic book milestone. While IDW has not stated if Latinum would appear in the issue, her return to Star Trek #500’s variant cover is most welcome . Some fans have made jokes connecting Borgs and Corgis, and now the meme has been made literal. Latinum has brought friends with her too, all of them representing the various Star Trek titles IDW has published over the past two years. Beyond being a gimmick, Latinum’s return represents two years of big swings for IDW’s Star Trek comics.
Star Trek #500 is on sale September 4 from IDW Publishing.

Exclusive Cover Reveal: The Interconnected Variants of “Star Trek Deep Space Nine: The Dog of War” by Andy Price
By brian salvatore | january 19th, 2023 posted in previews | % comments.
Dogs are the best. I know this, you know this, and even the graduates of Starfleet Academy know this. In April, IDW Publishing is releasing “Star Trek Deep Space Nine: The Dog of War,” a five issue miniseries by Mike Chen and Angel Hernandez that deals with…well, let’s let the solicit text tell that story.
BORK! An extremely rare purebred corgi from Earth makes its way aboard Deep Space 9 when Quark cuts a deal to procure it for a high buyer. After all, a Ferengi without profit is no Ferengi at all! But Latinum the corgi comes with unexpected cargo that shakes Captain Benjamin Sisko to the core: a Borg component discovered by a crew sent to uncover Cardassian technology after the station’s reoccupation. Don’t miss out on this exclusive “lost episode” celebrating the 30th anniversary of the fan-favorite show Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and debut comic series by acclaimed author Mike Chen (Star Wars: Brotherhood, Here and Now and Then) and Star Trek comics artist extraordinaire Angel Hernandez (Star Trek: Picard—Stargazer, Star Trek: Discovery—Adventures in the 32nd Century)
Part of the fun of this series are the ‘C’ covers, which are variants by Andy Price (“My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic”). The premise was to create a cover theme that plays on the funny, real life phenomenon of showing off the similarities between pets and their owners. Price does this with some DS9 favorites, and the results are a ton of fun.
We are thrilled to exclusively reveal four of the five covers, presented here along with the already revealed cover. Plus, we’ve got the interconnected cover, as well as the original sketch Price made as a guide. Thanks to IDW for the covers, and make sure to check out the series in April.

Deep Space Nine's Ronald D. Moore Talks About Potential Return To Star Trek, And The New-Era Show He's 'Enamored With'
Here's what he had to say.
Ronald D. Moore was one of the major voices in the creative direction of Star Trek during The Next Generation era. His writing and creative vision for Deep Space Nine brought him much acclaim in the sci-fi world, but he departed the franchise after his ideas for serialization in Voyager weren't embraced . Moore has had a massively successful run in television since, but CinemaBlend had to ask the creative if he'd ever consider a return to Trek after all these years.
While I already learned from Moore that there's a chance his series For All Mankind adapts Star Trek technology , I asked him if he had any interest in returning to the franchise to work on an upcoming Star Trek show or some original idea. Much to my surprise, he didn't dance around the question and noted an interest in returning to Trek at some point down the line:
I mean, it's always one of those things that is in the back of my mind. It'd be fun to go back and do something again before my career is over. It's in such good hands, you know, they've been doing a great job with it. So they don't need me, but it would be fun to go do something eventually.
Ronald D. Moore confirmed to me during our conversation at San Diego Comic-Con that a return to Star Trek is something he wants to do, but I would think it's a matter of when he'll have the time for it. After all, he's currently still working on For All Mankind , as well as the spinoff with a major key difference, Star City . Additionally, there's his work on the current production of Outlander' s final season , as well as its upcoming prequel series, Outlander: Blood of My Blood . In short, it could be quite a while before he returns to Star Trek , but this is only speculation.
Much to my surprise, Moore added that he's been trying his best to keep up with the franchise in spite of his busy schedule. He did mention the fact that Trek is going more into serialization and noted a particular interest in one series available with a Paramount+ subscription that he's "enamored" with because of how it handles such an approach:
I think that to the serialization point, yeah, I was a big advocate of serializing it. But now you know, surprisingly, in that sense, Strange New Worlds is more or less episodic. I've become very enamored of that show, and that formula and it does feel more in keeping with what the original started. They're able to strike that balance that we were talking about back in the day where you could do episodic structure but still continue character storylines.
Moore is impressed with how Star Trek: Strange New Worlds has managed to keep the episodic core nature of previous franchise entries while allowing characters to have serialized arcs as well. It's a formula necessitated by modern television, as many had grown weary of the story largely resetting for the crew each and every week as it did in TOS and other shows.
The news of Ronald D. Moore being interested in returning to Trek surely excites some Deep Space Nine fans, who have hoped for a proper follow-up series to reference the beloved show. I asked Moore about his thoughts on DS9 getting a follow-up in this new era, even if he wasn't involved, and he said the following:
It could be fun. I have no idea what it would be. It was a show that was near and dear to my heart. I think it was a very special show in the entire Star Trek franchise and I think it deserves to take its place along all the others.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine could certainly use a little more attention in this modern era. I loved the crossover with Lower Decks , but I also want to see more of what those legacy characters are up to now in a series at some point, even if the show is not strictly centered around DS9 .

As Ronald D. Moore noted earlier, the franchise has some great people working for it. Still, I think many would love to see him return and bring the same energy that made episodes like "Yesterday's Enterprise" instant classics and keeps First Contact near the top of best Star Trek movies . It'd be great to see him do another episode or work on another series.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine is currently available to stream on Paramount+. Check it out and re-live one of the most acclaimed shows the franchise ever aired, and get ready for more adventures on the horizon.

IDW's Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Is a Messy Return for the Beloved Series

10 Best Indie Comics That Ended Before 2020, Ranked
Transformers: the autobots and decepticons change the universe forever, everything you didn't know about wolverine & deadpool's relationship in the comics, idw's star trek: deep space nine is a messy return for the beloved series.
One of the most criminally underrated Star Trek series across the franchise's lengthy run is Star Trek: Deep Space Nine . Running for seven seasons from 1993 to 1999, the Next Generation spinoff took place on an eponymous space station by a wormhole leading to regions of space controlled by the fearsome Dominion, a collective of militaristic spacefaring civilizations.
Filled with more wartime violence and intrigue than its counterparts, Deep Space Nine was lauded for its scope, darker tone and greater emphasis on interpersonal relationships between the characters on board the station. IDW Publishing has launched the first Deep Space Nine comic in a decade, subtitled Too Long a Sacrifice , bringing fans right back to station and its familiar, fan-favorite characters. While the writing and characterizations are spot-on, the artwork may prove distracting to more discerning readers returning to the sci-fi franchise.
RELATED: Star Trek: Lower Decks Trailer Takes You Where No Man Has Gone Before
During the height of the galaxy-consuming Dominion War that defined the series for its second half, Too Long a Sacrifice takes place sometime before the conclusion of the show's sixth season, given the characters present. Enjoying a rare moment of peace and quiet on the station, Doctor Julian Bashir and Elim Garak are caught in a series of explosive terrorist attacks that rock the station. With tension running high and suspects everywhere, Constable Odo launches an extensive investigation to find out who is responsible before the attacks strike again and claim more lives.
Writers Scott and David Tipton have prolific history penning Star Trek adventures, including Star Trek comics. With that in mind, they have a deep understanding of the lore, overarching continuity and each of the individual characters' voices.
Odo, who stands front and center in Too Long a Sacrifice , sounds just as gruff and non-nonsense as he had portrayed by the late Rene Auberjonois had on the television series. Bashir is as contemplative as he ever was in his quieter moments, especially when facing the horrific loss of life launching the comic story while Garak is just as mysterious and potentially untrustworthy. Not every character appears or plays a major role in this opening issue but, given the tighter narrative focus, that is certainly to be expected.

Where the opening issue falls a bit flat, unfortunately, is in its artwork -- more specifically in the rendering of classic characters for the comic book format. Working with colorist Felipe Sobreiro, artist Greg Scott brings a moodier, more atmospheric approach to the familiar Starfleet space station, befitting the murder mystery premise.
However, character work is inconsistent, especially noticeable when attempting to work against expectations how characters should look in comparison to the live-action counterparts. Facial designs and hairstyles visibly change over the course of a single sequence for characters like Bashir and some action-based panels can come off as a bit stilted and awkward.
After more than 20 years off the air, it's always a pleasure to see the familiar characters from Deep Space Nine back together for new adventures. Scott and David Tipton capture the darker tone and dueling personalities of the titular space station well, with Odo particularly shining through the rest of the cast.
However, the franchise's return in comic book form is hampered by some uneven artwork, with character work distractingly rendered while action scenes prove more anemic than rousing. With a murder mystery set on the station, Greg Scott brings the noir-tinged atmosphere but hopefully the level of visual consistency will even out as the new series continues.

Every Star Trek Movie Comic Book Adaptation, Ranked
- Star Trek movie comic book adaptations have been released by various publishers throughout the franchise's history.
- Some of the adaptations took liberties with the original scripts, but still featured awesome and poignant moments.
- The comic book adaptations provide fans with additional scenes and perspectives that were not in the final movies.
Comic books have been an essential component of the Star Trek franchise for most of its history. Publishers such as Gold Key, Marvel, DC and IDW have taken turns with the Star Trek license, giving fans new and exciting adventures in the final frontier. Nearly every incarnation of the franchise has appeared in comic book form, and some publishers have also created original material.
Another component of the Star Trek comic book experience is the movie adaptations. In the 1980s, it was common practice for major publishers to release books adapting popular movies—and Star Trek was one of them. Here are all the Star Trek movie comic book adaptations, ranked.
Star Trek III: The Search for Spock
Published by dc comics, 1984.
Star Trek III: The Search for Spock is arguably the best of the odd-numbered Trek films, but its comic book movie adaptation takes some liberties with the script, namely in the sequencing of events. For example: the comic adaptation begins with the arrival of the USS Grissom at the Genesis Planet, an event that occurred a third of the way through the actual movie. However, the adaptation is not without awesome and poignant moments that did not make it into the final movie, including an epitaph spoken by Edith Keeler in “City on the Edge of Forever.”

Star Trek: Generations
Published by dc comics, 1994.
The first Star Trek: The Next Generation movie adaptation would be the last published by DC Comics , as they would lose the license shortly afterward. Fan opinion on Generations remains divided, with its critics pointing to numerous plot holes, such as the Nexus. DC’s adaptation of Generations does not plug any of these holes, but is still an enjoyable read nonetheless. The comic book version of Generations is notable for including a scene not in the original cut of the film, such as Captain Kirk’s orbital sky-dive. While rough cuts of it are now available to watch, for many years this was the only way for fans to see it.

Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home
Published by dc comics, 1986.
Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home is probably the most accessible of the original Trek films: a light-hearted romp with a serious environmental message. The Voyage Home’s comic book adaptation is a faithful one , largely sticking to the original film’s script. Writer Barr adds some dialogue, including a brief exchange between former Enterprise officers Doctor Chapel and Yeoman Janice Rand . Artists Sutton and Villagran are, like Barr, firing on all thrusters here. Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home is widely regarded as one of the best films in the franchise overall, and its comic book adaptation is worthy of the name.
Star Trek: First Contact
Published by marvel comics, 1996.
Star Trek: First Contact is a tense, nail-biting film , and its adaptation reflects that. Published by Marvel as part of their short-lived “Paramount Comics” imprint, Star Trek: First Contact stays faithful to Brannon Braga and Ronald D. Moore’s original screenplay, but is forced to cut some scenes due to spatial limitations. However, this does not deter one bit from the adaptation. Star Trek: First Contact’s movie adaptation was one of a few to receive a reprint years later from IDW, who currently holds the Trek comic license.
Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country
Published by dc comics, 1991.
Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country was the last ride of the original crew of the Enterprise , a bittersweet end to a glorious run, and its comic book adaptation perfectly captures this tone. Part of the adaptation’s success can be attributed to Peter David , who has written numerous Trek comics and novels, many of which are fan favorites. David and artist Gordon Purcell, who also illustrated a good portion of DC’s Star Trek output, deliver a first-rate adaptation, one that flows just as well as the source film. The Undiscovered Country is one of Trek’s finest hours, and its comic book adaptation is just as good.
Star Trek V: The Final Frontier
Published by dc comics, 1989.
Among fans, Star Trek V: The Final Frontier is regarded as one of the weakest entries in the franchise, but its comic book adaptation shines. Peter David, who had just finished up on DC’s first Star Trek comic, turns in an excellent adaptation that makes the original shine. Drawn by James W. Fry, Star Trek V: The Final Frontier’s comic adaptation hits all the right notes, perfectly distilling the film’s best parts. The comic book version of The Final Frontier was then used to inaugurate DC’s second line of Star Trek comics, which launched shortly thereafter.

Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan
Published by idw, 2009.
Despite being regarded as one, if not the best, Star Trek films, The Wrath of Khan never received a comic book adaptation when it was released in 1982, as Star Trek comics were in limbo at the time, with DC acquiring the license soon after. IDW rectified this problem in 2009, releasing a three-issue adaptation of the movie, which bucked the trend of Trek movie adaptations being one-shots. Thanks to the extra space afforded writer Andy Schmidt and artist Chee Yang Ong, this adaptation shines. Ong’s art especially compliments the movie’s dark tone.
Star Trek: The Motion Picture
Published by marvel comics, 1979.
The modern era of Star Trek comics began with Marvel’s adaptation of Star Trek: The Motion Picture. Initially released as the first three issues of Marvel’s Star Trek comic, The Motion Picture’s adaptation is easily the best of the franchise. Some of its success can be attributed to the legends that worked on it: writer Marv Wolfman and artist Dave Cockrum. Wolfman and Cockrum were on a roll in the late 1970s, and they brought this energy to the adaptation of Star Trek: The Motion Picture . Later released as a one-shot edition by Marvel, the adaptation was reprinted by IDW in the 2000s, giving fans the chance to experience this amazing book again.
The practice of adapting movies to comic book form has largely fallen by the wayside. While the Star Trek movie adaptations may seem relics of a bygone era, they are in fact an important part of the lore.
‘Star Trek: Deep Space Nine’ Foreshadowed a Terrible Fate in Its 1995 Episode That is Eerily Similar to 1 Harrowing Real-Life Incident in 2024
One episode of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine seems to have mirrored a real-life political policy that is proposed by the current governor of California.
![star trek deep space nine idw Star Trek Deep Space Nine](https://fwmedia.fandomwire.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/10063855/star-trek-deep-space-nine.jpg)
- Gene Roddenberry's Star Trek franchise has always depicted a hopeful vision for the future where inclusivity and diplomacy is celebrated.
- However, the storyline of the spinoff show Deep Space Nine indicated that the peaceful future was preceded by tumultuous times, which had riots.
- One episode in the show seems to have predicted one topical event and moreover, the episode was set in the show's distant past of 2024.
The spinoff show Star Trek: Deep Space Nine seems to have gone The Simpsons’ route this election season and predicted a political policy back in 1995, that might come into effect in California now. Moreover, the episode in question was also reportedly set in 2024, making the prediction all the more eerie and accurate.
The episode ‘ Past Tense ’ sees the world in 2024 crumbling due to rising homelessness, which is attempted to be eradicated by the politicians by sending the homeless to encampments known as Sanctuaries. This ideology has been compared to Californian Governor Gavin Newsom’s latest policy on homelessness eradication.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Predicted A Current Event In 2024
![star trek deep space nine idw Avery Brooks as Captain Sisko](https://fwmedia.fandomwire.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/10051646/avery-brooks-1024x652.webp)
Gene Roddenberry’s Star Trek franchise has always depicted a hopeful image of the future, where inclusivity and diplomacy take precedence over other victories. Violence in the show is kept to a minimum and discoveries and wonder are often encouraged. Be it the original series or its spinoffs, the future of Star Trek has always been positive.
![star trek deep space nine idw “We wanted to create a space for players to roleplay”: Dune: Awakening Will Let You Live Your Deepest Arrakis Dreams (With Your Friends)](https://fwmedia.fandomwire.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/04094033/dune-awakening-arrakis-1024x576.jpg)
“We wanted to create a space for players to roleplay”: Dune: Awakening Will Let You Live Your Deepest Arrakis Dreams (With Your Friends)
However, this hopeful future is canonically established to have been the result of a riot that came from utmost oppression. The Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode ‘ Past Tense ’ actually put three members of the crew, Commander Sisko, Dr. Bashir, and Jadzia Dax in the show’s past i.e. 2024, days before the ‘Bell Riots’ took place.
![star trek deep space nine idw Sanctuary District in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine](https://fwmedia.fandomwire.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/10051654/star-trek-2-1.jpg)
The episode sees the world being plagued by homelessness and a section of society not being able to support themselves being cordoned off into encampments in a place called the ‘Sanctuary District’. While the writers of the show were reportedly inspired by what they saw in the ‘90s, a new executive order in 2024 seemed to have eerie similarities.
According to CBS News , California Governor Gavin Newsom had recently issued an order to eradicate homeless encampments from under freeways and other settlements. The order reportedly mentioned that local authorities had the discretion to carry out these orders, however, there were possibilities of the department applying pressure.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Writers Said That They Were Responding To What They Saw
![star trek deep space nine idw A scene from the episode Past Tense](https://fwmedia.fandomwire.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/10051705/deep-space-nine.jpg)
Sci-fi media predicting the future has always been a subject of intrigue as it indicates that not much has changed in the world since the piece was conceived. Despite technological advancements, the social and political mood of the world still seemed to be status quo.
![star trek deep space nine idw “My only question was…”: LeVar Burton Had an Oddly Specific Ask Before Joining Star Trek: The Next Generation](https://fwmedia.fandomwire.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/08060240/star-trek-2-1024x576.jpg)
“My only question was…”: LeVar Burton Had an Oddly Specific Ask Before Joining Star Trek: The Next Generation
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine writer Robert Wolffe mentioned to Vox that they only got the advanced level of computers wrong in the 2024 past/future that they wrote in ‘ Past Tense’ . He said,
We weren’t being predictive. We were just looking out our windows in the ’90s. My wife worked with homeless and mentally ill people as a psychotherapist. Ira [Steven Behr] said what convinced him to do the episodes was walking through Palisades Park in Santa Monica and seeing all the homeless people there. They’re still there. It hasn’t changed. We weren’t being predictive. We were just being observant.
When production on the episode was wrapping up, the makers reportedly met with the news that LA mayor Richard Riordan was planning on removing homeless encampments and sending them to cordoned-off spaces called ‘havens’, which became another eerie prediction.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine is available to stream on Paramount+.
