Star Trek #11
Written by: Collin Kelly
Art by: Jackson Lanzing and Angel Unzueta
Cover Art: Malachi Ward

"Day of Blood," Chapter Three! Only emissary Sisko and his crew of Starfleet's finest and disgraced ambassador Worf and his band of insurgents can save the universe. But they are divided in every sense of the word… In space, Lieutenants Paris and Torres fight over control of the Defiant while Spock and Scotty do everything they can to keep the Theseus from being cleaved in two. On the ground, Ro and Sela have given up hope, and siblings Data and Lore can't see eye to eye-all while their captains resist the urge to tear each other apart. Can they defeat Kahless and his Red Path when they cannot overcome their own differences?

Star Trek #11 is a fun read, but ultimately seems like it's spinning its wheels, as very little story progress is made here. There are a lot of good character interactions -- the highlight of which is once again Lore and Data, though Doctor Crusher and Sela also have a cool moment only slightly diminished by the fact that Sela still seems shoehorned into the book -- but the main attraction for Day of Blood is Sisko, Worf, and Emperor Kahless, and they're pretty much no where in the book.

Nit picks: The likeness for Tom Paris has always been off in this book, and never more so than in this issue. It's like the artist heard of the Nick Locarno issue and is worried he's going to have to pay royalties if Paris looks too much like Robert Duncan McNeil. Also, Ro has been done dirty ever since she showed up in Defiant #1, and this issue is no exception.

Compliment sandwich! I really like the interpretation of the Kobayashi Maru that Lily Sato gives.
