Star Trek: Starfleet Academy – Lost Contact #5

About this issue

The cadets of Starfleet Academy face their toughest test yet in Star Trek: Starfleet Academy – Lost Contact #5, part of IDW's celebration of Star Trek's 60th anniversary. After a disaster at the aliens' sanctuary, the cadets tried to repair their wounds and their damaged friendships. Now Captain Ake and the Doctor have arrived to help, and Genesis, realizing that her mistakes could cost the aliens their future and safety, has pleaded with her teachers to give the cadets a chance to fix the broken alien machinery. Following Jay-Den's suggestion, the young Starfleeters must put diplomacy before force. Can they convince the noise-making Clang-Pops to accept their help, without a single word spoken? Communication, caution and teamwork will decide whether a whole species survives. Written by Layne Morgan with art by Coralí Espuña and colors by Nora Serrano, this issue delivers a warm, character-driven space adventure with a hopeful message about listening, understanding and second chances. It is a great pick for fans of the Paramount+ series, younger readers and anyone who loves optimistic, exploration-focused Star Trek stories.
