This week IDW’s ongoing Star Trek series continues with part 4 of the “A Savage World of Glass and Bone” storyline, with Captain Sisko and the crew of the Theseus trying to stop a war with the space dinosaur Tzenkethi… and their Romulan friends. Collin Kelly and Jackson Lanzing co-write the series with art by Marcus To. We have covers and a preview of issue 16.
Star Trek #16
Synopsis:
The Tzenkethi Festival of Supremacy has come at a heavy cost for Captain Sisko when members of the Theseus crew members lose their lives to gargantuan beasts. But despite seeing through the battle and warding off the ancient reptilian species, Sisko finds himself overshadowed by the Romulans and their efforts to persuade the Tzenkethi into an alliance. All the while, Cardassia joins the bid to win over the reptilian species in hopes of taking advantage of their new war fleet. Can Sisko convince this cunning yet brute force-favoring species of Starfleet ideals… or do the Federation’s foes have a point?

The Scotty cover looks fantastic. I do like what these comics have done with the character.
