IDW December 2013 Star Trek Comics

IDW Publishing has released their publishing plans for December 2013. The month has three comics and one trade. The Khan 2.0 story continues while a new Annual is being released that is psuedo sequel to the TOS episode "Where No Man Has Gone Before." Only its being described as a "fotonovel" so I guess instead of art it will be pictures from the series and other things put together to tell the story. Or something. Nowadays John Byrne is a lazy storyteller and artist whose style stopped developing in the 80s so when it comes out I recommend flipping through it in the store before dropping money on it. For the full details of IDW's other books including GI Joe, TMNT, Transformers, and more click here.
