Star Trek: Day of Blood #1
Written by : Christopher Cantwell, Collin Kelly, Jackson Lanzing Art by: Ramon Rosanas
Cover Art: Malachi Ward

Day of Blood Starts Here! Immortal emperor of the Klingon Empire, Kahless II has consolidated power, raided ancient tombs and secret bunkers, taken the power of gods for himself, stolen the Bajoran Orb of Destruction, and commenced a slaughter across the stars. But this genocide of gods was just the beginning. For with the power he has stolen, Kahless is about to declare war on all those who do not follow the Red Path. To prevent genocide unlike any since the ancient days of Qo'noS, the crew of icons led by the emissary known as Benjamin Sisko (Star Trek) and the renegades who follow a desperate and violent Worf (Star Trek: Defiant) must unite for a common cause. Only they can hope to stop the Day of Blood.

Day of Blood starts out pretty strong. By which I mean there is a rollcall page featuring the main characters of both "Star Trek" and "Star Trek: Defiant", and on it we learn that Shaxs once punched a Gorn so hard it exploded.

Hell yeah, he did.

Anyways! It's the big Summer crossover event. The crews of the USS Theseus and USS Defiant come together despite their (extremely flimsy) antipathy for the big showdown with clone Emperor Kahless. It's fun to see the two crews interact for the first time since Worf left the Theseus. We got Tom and B'Elanna reuniting. We got Data and Lore. We got Shaxs and Ro. We...got Lili Sato and the Orion drug-dealer/medic, I guess. We got Doctor Crusher telling everyone to put their collective bullshit to the side and get ready to save Qo'noS. One thing that stood out to me is that T'Lir tells Spock they only know him by reputation, but early in "Star Trek" T'Lir claimed they met Spock as a child. Of course, T'Lir would not want Spock to know they'd met before, because T'Lir is actually Trelene, and if they're not I will it a tricorder toy.

Also, these comics might as well be called "Star Trek: Fanservice", but there's a moment featuring
