IDW publisher Chris Ryall post at his blog the first look at fan favorite artist Gordon Purcell art for the upcoming Star Trek Year Four mini series titled The Enterprise Experiment, written by D.C. Fontana and Derek Chester.
The first issue will be on sale April 16th. The story is a sequel to the third season TOS episode "The Enterprise Incident", and the remastered version of this episode (also written by Fontana) is airing this weekend in the U.S.
Here is how IDW describes the issue 1 :
IDW Publishing's Star Trek: Second Stage continues! Showcasing the top Trek writers in print, TV, and comics as IDW beings their second year under Starfleet command. This month, Star Trek legend Dorothy "D.C." Fontana takes the stage for her first-ever Star Trek comic book series. The writer from the original TV series, as well as The Animated Series, The Next Generation, and Deep Space Nine, is joined by partner Derek Chester (Star Trek: Legacy) for The Enterprise Experiment, an all-new series set in the unexplored fourth year of the U.S.S. Enterprise's legendary five-year mission. A sequel to the classic episode "The Enterprise Incident"-originally written by Fontana herself-where Kirk and Spock found themselves trapped on an Enterprise out of phase with space itself and facing a plot of revenge from Romulans! Features art by longtime Star Trek penciller Gordon Purcell and a cover from Joe & Rob Sharp.
