review:
'Star Trek: Manifest Destiny' by Mike Johnson and Ryan Parrott with art by Angel Hernandez starts off interesting, but I can't tell you much about it because I was given only a portion of it for review.

The story starts right off in action mode, with the Klingons doing what they do best. They conquer a planet, and when the USS Enterprise shows up to help, an away team is sent to the planet. Traps about as the away team is unable to help and the ship and it's crew are also caught in what seems to be a clever trap. The preview I got ends on an exciting cliffhanger.

This is the J.J. reboot crew. I liked the art, even with the artist putting in lens flares like in the movies (although they aren't nearly as distracting here). I liked McCoy having to fight using his medical technology and his usually grouchy attitude. It's a really good set up for an exciting story. I see that as a bonus, this graphic novel includes issue one in the Klingon language, which would be fun. I liked what I got to read, and I would seek out the rest to read.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from IDW Publishing, Diamond Book Distributors, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
