STAR TREK THE NEXT GENERATION SPECIAL #1: A special presentation of three tales of the 24th century, as we go beyond the final frontier in this extra-sized issue. In "Good Listener," featuring Guinan, Dr. Crusher's Away Team struggles to stop an inexplicable plague. Written by Tony Isabella and Robert Ingersoll, with art by Deryl Skelton, Steve Carr and Jim Amash. Alexander learns what a Klingon warrior must do to survive in "A True Son of Kahless," written by Anne Wokanovicz and Ken Penders, with art by Penders and Romeo Tanghal. Finally, Star Trek novelist Diane Duane rounds out the issue with the offbeat "Spot's Day," as Data's cat gets loose on a holodeck programmed for Worf, with art by Rod Whigham and Mike Sellers

STAR TREK THE NEXT GENERATION SPECIAL #2: Three landmark stories! Writer Chris Claremont, penciller Chris Wozniak and inker Jerome Moore bring Star Trek "classic" character Jamie Finney into the 24th century, as Captain Picard and the crew of the Enterprise-D carry a mysterious passenger who seems bent on the destruction of the Klingon High Council. Next, Ensign Ro reaches a crossroads when she goes on an Away Team mission in a crisis uncomfortably similar to the one that sent her to prison, in a story written by Michael Jan Friedman, with art by Gordon Purcell and Terry Pallot. Finally, Captain Bateson, the time-displaced 23rd century captain from the ST: TNG episode "Cause and Effect," confronts his own obsolescence in the Starfleet of the 24th century, written by Michael Jan Friedman, with art by Steve Erwin and Charles Barnett. Painted cover by Sonia Hillios.

STAR TREK THE NEXT GENERATION SPECIAL #3: In "Pandora's Prodigy," terrorists board the U.S.S. Enterprise, determined to stop Picard from arbitrating a trade war between two alien races. Based upon an unused outline for Star Trek: The Next Generation. Written by Michael DeMeritt, with art by Ricardo Villagran. Plus, Captain Montgomery Scott is threatened by one of his old enemies, Klingon Captain Koloth, whose ship Scotty once infested with tribbles. Written by Kevin J. Ryan, with art by Ken Save and Shephard Hendrix. Painted cover by Sonia Hillios.
