According to TVShowsonDVD.com, Image Entertainment is planning the release of the William Shatner-produced science fiction TV Series TekWar on DVD. It will contain all 18 episodes of the series, but apparently not the four pre-series telefilms.

The $39.99 SRP collection will arrive in stores on June 10th. The specs are listed as "1.33:1" for video and "English" for audio, but that's the only other detail available so far. No cover art is available yet, either, but we do have Image's description : 
    In the year 2045, an addictive computer-based reality drug called "tek" has ignited a war that stretches throughout society. Recruited by a mysterious benefactor to stop the advancing drug is Jake Cardigan (Melrose Place's Greg Evigan), a cop who teams up with a colorful array of partners as the government plots to stop him from revealing the truth. Also starring Eugene Clark (Land of the Dead) and Torri Higginson (Stargate: Atlantis), this riveting series is based on the hit sci-fi novel series by William Shatner (Star Trek, Boston Legal), who also makes special appearances throughout these 18 action-packed episodes!

    From what I understand, the set you are
    referring to was a Canada-only release.
    This is a complete region 1 re-release.
    We'll have to wait & see if its any different
    from the currently existing set.

    The announcement is here:

    I second the motion for releasing the TV movies!

    The previous Region-1 release of TekWar was only on Canada. Click on the TV ShowsOnDVD.com link for the full story :

    Quote from the article :

    "Back in 2004, Koch put out a Canada-only DVD release of TekWar - Season 1, based on the books authored by William Shatner, and starring Shatner, Greg Evigan and Eugene Clark. Now Image Entertainment is planning their own release of TekWar on DVD."
