Star Trek: The Next Generation—Enemy Unseen

    (WildStorm, 2001)
™ and ©2001 Paramount Pictures Corporation

This meaty collection, which compiles some of the most intriguing Star Trek tales since the Paramount properties came to the Wildstorm/DC imprint, is actually a bit of a sci-fi anthology: three separate stories centered around a common theme—adversaries who are virtually invisible; who operate in the shadows—even the shadows of our own minds. The first tale, a reprinting of the “Perchance to Dream” limited series, pits the crew of the Enterprise-D against terrorists bent on assassinating a new world leader, by using an ancient telepathic weapon that pits Picard and company against their own worst nightmares. “Embrace the Wolf” is the second tale—and the best of the lot. It features the return of a villain from the original Star Trek series, one with links to the ancient Jack the Ripper legends from earth’s past. This villain challenges Data and Picard in particular to a confrontation in the holodeck (programmed in the Victorian London Sherlock Holmes scenario, of course). Rounding out the collection is “The Killing Shadows,” in which the the Next Generation crew—together with an old Romulan enemy—must face off against a deadly cadre of futuristic ninjas.
