From February 1984 through February 1996, DC Comics held the license to publish comic books based upon the Star Trek franchise, namely Star Trek: The Original Series (TOS) and Star Trek: The Next Generation (TNG).
The main DC Comics Star Trek title was published in two series, comprising 136 issues, 9 annuals, and a number of special issues. Two series were also published based upon Star Trek: The Next Generation, plus several mini-series that linked TOS and TNG.
Volume one was published from February 1984–Nov. 1988. It featured stories set after Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan.
In addition to the Star Trek original cast, original characters in this series included the bigoted Native American Ensign William Bearclaw, Ensign Nancy Bryce, the bird-like Dr. Chu-Sa, Lt. Commander Maria Morelli, Ensign Elizabeth Sherwood, and the Klingons Konom and Bernie. There were also appearances by Arex and M'Ress, previously seen in Star Trek: The Animated Series.
Star Trek volume 2 was published from Oct. 1989 – Feb. 1996. It featured stories set after Star Trek V: The Final Frontier.
Inspired by a number of character profile series being published at the time by both DC and Marvel Comics, Who's Who in Star Trek was a two-issue special published in March and April 1987 that provided profiles of various characters in the Star Trek comic book universe. Artists included John Byrne and Todd McFarlane.
