An 8 book mini series split into two stories, one with the TOS crew and one with the TNG crew, published right before Star Trek 6: The Undiscovered Country was released with letters in the back half from fans concerned about where the franchise was going and suggesting various things about new strips. Covers are all by Adam Hughes, which is apparent if you check out Uhura on #1 of the TOS series and Troi on the TNG series.
The stories themselves are just ok, and the interior art is just as ok, but I’m more impressed with the letter pages at the very end of each issue and the timing of things. It’s not a bad series to check out, and the hand off from TOS to TNG is done very well.
It’s fun to see this version of the bad guys too.
