Star Trek: Year Four - The Enterprise Experiment is a five part comics miniseries published by IDW Publishing from April to August 2008. The series is written by D.C. Fontana and Derek Chester with art by Gordon Purcell, and continues the voyages of the USS Enterprise after the events of the Year Four miniseries.

The series is a sequel to the episode "The Enterprise Incident", featuring Federation experimentation with the captured cloaking device and appearances from the Romulans and in later issues of the series the Klingons. Arex also appears in the series.

Description[]

Dorothy "D.C." Fontana, the writer from the original Star Trek TV series, as well as The Animated Series, Star Trek: The Next Generation, and Star Trek: 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 USS Enterprise's legendary five-year mission.
The Enterprise Experiment — a sequel to The Enterprise Incident, the classic Star Trek episode written by Fontana — finds Kirk and Spock trapped on an Enterprise out of phase with space itself and facing a plot of revenge from the Romulans!
