IDW December

IDW have released their solicitations for December, which include three Star Trek titles; the next two issues in the current Star Trek series, plus confirmation IDW will be doing a reprint of The Gorn Crisis. Also out that month will be a hardcover omnibus of the entire Infestation crossover (previously released as two paperback books). StarTrek.com have also done a feature on the Star Trek issues for that month, including releasing the second cover for the next Legion of Super-Heroes crossover issue that month.

Star Trek (ongoing) #4
By Mike Johnson, art by Stephen Molnar, covers by Tim Bradstreet (3/4) and Joe Corroney (1/4), plus retail incentive sketch and photo covers. Also noted to be "Part of IDW’s photo-cover month".
Mr. Spock faces a deadly choice as he tries to save the crew of a stranded shuttle! Featuring the likenesses of the new STAR TREK cast, this story boldly re-imagines a classic episode, Galileo 7, but in the new timeline of the hit movie!

Star Trek/Legion of Super-Heroes #3
By Chris Roberson, art by Jeffrey and Philip Moy, covers by Phil Jimenez (3/4), Mike Grell (1/4), and Gabriel Rodriguez (retail incentive).
Captain Kirk and the crew of the Starship: Enterprise have come face to face with Cosmic Boy and the other members of the Legion of Super-Heroes, and each team assumes that the other is responsible for the change in the timeline that landed them in this strange world. But will they find common ground in time to defend themselves from an attack by an elite group of imperial enforcers, some of whom are VERY familiar to the two teams?
 

The Gorn Crisis
By Kevin J. Anderson and Rebecca Moesta, art and a cover by Igor Kordey.
With a fierce war raging and resources running low, the U.S.S Enterprise has been assigned a sensitive diplomatic mission–to enlist aid from the alien race known as the Gorn. But the Gorn have a crisis of their own, a brewing revolution in their ranks. And when it comes to the Federation, some of the Gorn have long memories...

Infestation hardcover omibus
By Dan Abnett, Andy Lanning, Mike Raicht, Scott and David Tipton, and Erik Burnham, art by David Messina, Giovanni Timpano, Nick Roche, Gary Erskine, Casey Maloney, and Kyle Hotz, cover by Ashley Wood. This will also include the previously digital-only Pocket Gods Infestation story. The cover released in the solicitation is by Gabriel Rodriguez, if the cover credit to Ashley Wood is correct then this is not the final cover.
IDW's first-ever mega event is collected in this hard cover collection as something goes horribly awry in the IDW universe: a dimensions-spanning zombie outbreak of epic proportions, which threatens to tear many of IDW’s biggest realities asunder! The infestation spreads through the TRANSFORMERS, G.I. JOE, STAR TREK, and GHOSTBUSTERS universes. Zombie apocalypse looms and the remaining members of CVO are running out of options...

In other IDW news: This week's first issue of the new ongoing series has already sold out, prompting a second printing which is due in October, with a variant cover.
