The conclusion to Arc 3! The U.S.S. Omega breaks apart. Captain Sato returns to his bridge to find Kirk—and the Borg—already in command. What follows is a phaser-point standoff over the ship’s future: surrender and survival…or war to save a dying galaxy. As arguments turn into action, Valqis is forced to choose a side—and a captain. In Sickbay, Zed makes an impossible call to save Vi from assimilation, uncovering a terrifying truth about the psychic singularity at Deep Space Hope. It proves hope may still exist… at a devastating cost. The Federation and the crew are divided. Two visions for the future emerge. One will rebuild. One will fight more

Jul 25, 2026This issue brings the Deep Space Hope story arc to a close, and it has perhaps been the most haunting and darkest storyline of the series to date. That said, it is also the arc that finally sees Kirk take command, rightly or wrongly. Read Full Review

Jul 15, 2026Lanzing and Kelly continue to ramp up the tension and suspense throughout this issue. The tension really boils over in the interactions between Sato and Kirk and that’s where the story really picks up. The Zed/T’Galatheon storyline was a little weak in its execution, but it worked within the bigger themes of the story. The Jurati storyline seems to be losing steam, but I look forward to seeing what they do with it in the next issue. Read Full Review

COMICON - Tom Smithyman
Jul 14, 2026Some truly great artwork is largely wasted on a story that suffers from haphazard character development. We’re meant to care about characters who simply haven’t been fleshed out enough. And with the end of the series close at hand, most of us aren’t going to invest more time in these individuals. Read Full Review
