Warning: contains spoilers for Star Trek #8!In a forthcoming issue of Star Trek, Captain Benjamin Sisko finally stands trial for his Dominion War tactics. These tactics were crucial in winning the war, but some of them were morally dubious, approaching the level of war crimes. Now, in May’s Star Trek #8, Sisko must face his actions during the war – and to make matters worse, it will be a Cardassian court he stands trial in.
IDW Publishing recently revealed information about the issue (as shared by League of Comic Geeks), as well as a look at Mike Feehan and Caspar Wijngaard's cover art, shared below. In the issue, Sisko will be taken back to the Cardassian homeworld, where he must stand trial before the Obsidian Council. The Council has accused him of numerous war crimes perpetrated during the Dominion War, and they want him to answer for them. Feehan’s cover depicts Captain Sisko sitting in a holding cell, while Wijngaard's shows a Cardassian in the middle of a legal argument. The issue will be written by Jackson Lanzing and Collin Kelly and drawn by Feehan.
