Star Trek: Defiant, Issue 18

Real world article
(written from a production point of view)

Summary

Blurb
With Spock rotting in a Romulan cell aboard Sela's ship, the rest of the Defiant crew readies the farmers of Antara for an invasion by General Revo and his relentless Romulan army. This leaves Worf, B'Elanna, and Ro with two crewmates down, and despite how hopeful the planet's population is, what are three failed Starfleet officers and lowly resistance fighters to a heavily armed and technologically advanced Romulan strike team?
