Comic Book Sneak Peek – Star Trek: The Last Starship #9

      IDW Publishing will release Star Trek: The Last Starship #9 on Wednesday, and you can check out an official preview of the issue below.

      The U.S.S. Omega is falling apart. Captain Sato returns to his bridge only to find that Kirk—and the Borg—are already in control. This leads to a tense standoff over the future of the ship: surrender for the sake of survival or engage in a battle to save a fading galaxy. As discussions escalate into confrontation, Valqis is compelled to decide on a side—and a captain.

      Meanwhile, in Sickbay, Zed faces an impossible decision to rescue Vi from assimilation, revealing a chilling truth about the psychic singularity at Deep Space Hope. This suggests that hope may remain… but at a terrible price.

      The Federation and its crew are split. Two visions for the future are presented: one aimed at rebuilding, and the other oriented toward resistance. The division is clear. The Galaxy will be forever changed.

      Star Trek: The Last Starship #9 launches on Wednesday, July 15th, 2026.
