PLOT: Riker is trapped in a phantom zone, on a station that has been sucked into a rift in space. Though ghostly phantoms tell him there's no escape, he doesn't give up hope. The Enterprise sends a probe into the rift, but though they lose contact with it, Riker turns on the station's shields to...

DIVERGENCES: The title was also used for a DS9 episode. Picard has a different fish than Livingstone in his aquarium. If O'Brien had been a Klingon before, he sure doesn't mention it in Apocalypse Rising.

REVIEW: Ugh. This story didn't work for me. At all. Though it gives the artists the chance to indulge in barbarian comics imagery, the premise is expounded us via an ensign relaying a message sent by the memorial. Even if I was happy with the babble-a-thon, why the middle man? And since the Enter...

REVIEW: You know when I said Okona might not be annoying in comic book form? I was wrong. His insufferable flirting with Crusher, long expository (but not that useful) speeches, and the fact the likeness is way off really don't help. It could be ANY character in this role and it wouldn't chang...

PLOT: Back on Earth, Worf's adopted son, Jeremy Aster, is meeting Alexander for the first time. He finds out that the ¾-Klingon boy would rather live his life as a human. On the Enterprise, Worf wishes he could be there, but that's just not possible. The starship has just found the outrageous O...

PLOT: The Enterprise-D gets a distress call from Captain Halk of the USS Marco Polo. Halk is a childhood friend of Riker's, and as we find out in a series of flashbacks, has always been one for taking risks while Riker took the safer road. When the Enterprise finds the Marco Polo, it is surround...

PLOT: Troi is trapped in an enclosure with peaceful telepathic sea serpents hunted to near extinction by the Lanatosians. It's clear they've hidden the serpents so that the Enterprise would bring their sacred monuments instead of this second, sentient species. They are all freed by Data...

PLOT: The Enterprise-D flies to intercept its mirror image, but arrives too late to prevent the destruction of the USS Merrimac. Data notices that the bogus ship's movements mirror those of the Enterprise more than two years prior, so Picard takes a gamble and flies off to what was the ship...

REVIEW: A good showcase for the characters. The plot doesn't move much, as we already know what their depositions will say, but Friedman gets the chance to work out each of their "voices". Picard gets the most panel space, of course, with some dynamic (thanks to Marcos) flashbacks that make...

PLOT: The Enterprise-D is accused of having violated Ferengi space when it was nowhere near it, and Picard is ordered to starbase for the investigation. However, Dr. Crusher falls ill from a slow-incubating virus she caught on the planet Onorrh on her first tour of duty, so Picard immediat...
