IDW Publishing has announced Star Trek: The Last Starship, a thrilling new mission the likes of which comics have never seen before. Arriving this September from acclaimed co-writers Collin Kelly and Jackson Lanzing and featuring breathtaking art by Adrián Bonilla and stellar colors by Heather Moore, the iconic Star Trek hero Captain Kirk is back from the dead… and just in time for him to watch the Starfleet he loved so dearly burn to the ground. 

This epic comic book series takes place during The Burn, a galaxy-wide disaster which caused the destruction of every active warp core, killing trillions and shattering the peace, stability, enlightenment, and mutual protection the United Federation of Planets provided for seven centuries. Facing a true wild west in space, a mysteriously resurrected Captain Kirk will lead a new crew and ship in a seemingly impossible effort to uphold Starfleet’s mission of unity across the cosmos.

Star Trek: The Last Starship​ #1 features a primary cover by Francesco Francavilla, variant by Skyler Patridge, and a foil variant by Michael Cho. Plus, there will be full art variants for Francavilla’s (1:15) and Cho’s (1:15) stunning covers in addition to a Local Comic Shop Day variant by Malachi Ward. The debut issue goes on sale September 24 with a pre-order deadline of August 18.
