TokyoPop, a strong producer of manga, dove into the realm of Star Trek a couple of years ago when it introduced a volume of short stories produced in the Japanese graphic art form. This is the second volume to come out, and it is a group of five very interesting tales.
One of them does a wonderful job of examinig what happened to Lt. Uhura after her mind was wiped by the traveling probe Nomad.
Another is written by Wil Wheaton (a.k.a. Wesley Crusher from Star Trek: The Next Generation and is a classic tale dealing with First Contact.
Another further explores Vulcan culture as the Enterprise stops by on an invitation from Sarek to participate in a religious holiday celebrating their traditions of logic.
Each of the tales has the feel and tone of the stories that made the original series so popular that it became a cultural icon. The illustrations are work as long as you are comfortable with the manga style.
