Arriving in stores on June 28th is the newest comic tie-in Star Trek: Manifest Destiny by Mike Johnson and Ryan Parrott, which is set into between Star Trek Into Darkness and Star Trek Beyond.
The 136-page comic kicks off with a huge Klingon fleet lead by Commander Sho'Tokh invading a planet and they claim it in the name of the Klingon Empire.
A month later the U.S.S. Enterprise receives a strange beacon from a class-M planet, so Captain Kirk sends down an away team to investigate. Of course there is danger on the planet that puts the team in jeopardy. Meanwhile, a Klingon D7 attacks the Enterprise.
Final Thoughts: While the Klingons were shown briefly in Star Trek Into Darkness, most fans wanted to see more of the new incarnation of the race. The galley that I reviewed only has the first 24 pages in it. In this comic, we get to see what true Klingons are - deadly warriors that want nothing more than to conquer worlds. While the plot is very thin, "Manifest Destiny" is a decent beginning to a bigger arc; just when it starts to get interesting, it ends on a cliffhanger. The illustrations by are well-done. The entire paperback contains all 4 issues as well as a bonus Klingon Language version of the first issue. Overall, I enjoyed reading Star Trek: Manifest Destiny and I recommend other fans.
