A friendly reminder regarding spoilers! At present the expanded Trek universe is in a period of major upheaval with the continuations of Discovery and Prodigy, the advent of new eras in gaming with the Star Trek Adventures RPG, Star Trek: Infinite and Star Trek Online, as well as other post-57th Anniversary publications such as the ongoing IDW Star Trek comic and spin-off Star Trek: Defiant. Therefore, please be courteous to other users who may not be aware of current developments by using the {{spoiler}}, {{spoilers}} OR {{majorspoiler}} tags when adding new information from sources less than six months old (even if it is minor info).

The Newspaper Comics, Volume 2 is the second collection of comic strips that were published in Los Angeles Times Syndicate newspapers from October 1981 to December 1983.

Description[]

From Book Jacket
THIS VOLUME CONTAINS THE SECOND HALF OF THE RARE DAILY AND SUNDAY STAR TREK NEWSPAPER STRIP
Ten complete missions told by Sharman DiVono, Larry Niven, Martin Pasko, Padraic Shigetani, and Gerry Conway; and illustrated by Ron Harris, Padraic Shigetani, Bob Myers, Ernie Colón, Dick Kulpa and Alfredo Alcala.
The action picks up where the first film, Star Trek: The Motion Picture, left off and relates the next five-year mission for the crew of the USS Enterprise.
Thanks to thorough research by a handful of dedicated Star Trek collectors, these rare comic strips have been rescued and restored from yesterday's fading newsprint.
