Star Trek: Defiant #22 review




As B'Elanna Torres grapples with her new position as Captain of the Defiant, O'Brien approaches her about destroying the self-replicating mines he created several years ago.  Meanwhile, Worf strips his son of his honor and sets him on a course to restore it.  He must complete three tasks.  He faces a member of the house of Martok and his aunt, defending their attacks but unable to retaliate as part of the ritual.  The Defiant begins to destroy the mines over Karemma when a Section 31 ship intervenes.  

I appreciate this book coming back to Alexander and trying to undo some of the damage done to his character during the Day of Blood event. Of course, he must undertake a complicated Klingon ritual to restore his honor.  Karemma is a planet we've seen before on DS9.  The Defiant story I'm curious to see where it takes us.  The self-replicating mines have been on O'Brien's mind since his introduction in this book.  It is something I still take issue with.  Miles, a combat veteran berated by a young Starfleet cadet.  

six out of ten.

When a member of each culture are stranded together, the two find they must put aside their differences if they want to survive. This story takes place in the so-called “Energon Universe”, Skybound Entertainment’s initiative to relaunch properties like Transformers and G.I. Joe within a shared universe that also happens to include the original characters and setting of Void Rivals. In this seventeenth issue, the secret of Zerta Trion is revealed, Darak has a “friendly” chat with his father, and Proximus is on the rampage! Proximus? He was cool. He was! And that continues here as him and his new kid sidekick go on a quest together. It’s unclear exactly what Proximus wishes to get out of it, but he’s clearly no longer...
