A special Star Trek comic for the franchise’s 60th anniversary is set to feature new stories from several prominent creators. The Hollywood Reporter reports that the IDW special includes contributions from Brian Michael Bendis and Mike McMahan, who is the creator of the animated series “Star Trek: Lower Decks.” The report also says that David Gerrold—an original series writer and the creator of “Tribbles”—contributes a separate tale to the anniversary issue. Gizmodo similarly describes the comic as joining the 60th anniversary celebrations with participation from Bendis and McMahan and additional creators. Both outlets frame the project as an anniversary-focused release highlighting well-known voices associated with Star Trek and related genre storytelling. While specific plot details, release dates, and the full list of contributors are not provided in the excerpts, the sources agree on the central point that the anniversary comic is built around new original stories from multiple notable creators, including Bendis, McMahan, and Gerrold.
