These are the voyages...

One of the most successful syndicated series of all time, Star Trek: The Next Generation breathed new life into the Star Trek franchise and kicked off a whole new era of Starfleet exploration and adventure!

In these never-previously-collected stories, the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-D continue their mission into the unexplored regions of space, seeking out new life and new civilisations! Captain Picard must strike a bargain with the devious Ferengi to save the life of Dr Crusher and investigate the mystery behind a second maverick Enterprise that is destroying Federation ships!

Written by acclaimed Star Trek novelist Michael Jan Friedman with art by Pablo Marcos (Batman, Fantastic Four), and featuring rare interviews with Jonathan Frakes (Commander Riker) and Marina Sirtis (Counsellor Troi), this collection of interstellar comics boldly goes where no one has gone before!
