escape attempt thwarted by Odo, shapeshifting into a Vulcan
Sehlat, Bashir examines the prisoner, but is overpowered and

discovers that the Klingon captain set up the hostage
situation so that the prisoner would be killed. Bagged with

(Mike W. Barr; Lurene Haines)


<Malibu Comics> Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
Beginning with DS9 #3, the copyright notice indicates that Malibu
is publishing both Direct Market and Newsstand issues (priced at
$2.50 and $1.95 respectively). However, I haven't seen any DS9
comics priced at $1.95. How about you folks in netland?

01    Aug 93    Stowaway, 1
On their way back to class from Dax's lab, Jake and Nog detour
through the cargo holds and accidentally release a green mold.
They hurry back to class without telling anyone what has
happened. Renowned xenoarcheologist, Dr. Wembley, aboard a
visiting Federation starship, asks DS9 to store some
artifacts from the Gamma quadrant for transport to Earth.
O'Brien takes the artifacts to the cargo bay and is nearly
overcome by the rapidly reproducing mold, which also produces
a toxic gas. While Odo and his staff try to evacuate
contaminated areas, Bashir identifies the mold as a
Cardassian-engineered substance. Bashir questions Mr.
Garak about the mold but gets no answers. In order to cover all
bases, Sisko asks permission to examine the artifacts and
determine if their presence may have been responsible for
activating the mold. Permission is refused and Capt. Johnson
takes the artifacts back to his ship. A fungicide developed by
Dax and Bashir proves ineffective, but the Cardassians
arrive, in three cruisers, with an offer to destroy the mold.
Cover illustration of the DS9 crew drawn by Jerome Moore (Cover
A: Direct Market edition). This edition also has a centerfold
poster reproducing the illustrated cover. The backside of the
poster advertises DS9 Icee Comic Book Collector's Cups from
Circle K, a DS9 Limited Edition Mini Comic, and an untrimmed
version of #1. Sold by comic book dealers for $2.50.
(Mike W. Barr; Gordon Purcell, Terry Pallot; Jerome Moore,
Richard Ory)

on artwork of the wormhole (Cover B: Newsstand edition).

Direct Market issue and doesn't contain any centerfold
advertisements.

the DS9 crew drawn by Jerome Moore. The cover states that this

Collectibles and sold by QVC for $28.00. This edition doesn't
contain the centerfold advertisements found in the Direct

ashcan, aka Limited Edition Preview #2 ($9.95), the black
dual-foil edition of DS9 #1 ($19.95), and the QVC gold foil
edition of DS9 #1 ($19.95). QVC originally sold the gold-foil
DS9 #1 for $28.00. Don't ask me to explain comics economics. I'm
clueless.


02    Sep 93    Stowaway, 2
Sisko declines help from the Cardassians while the mold
spreads throughout DS9. Capt. Johnson refuses to let anyone
speak to Dr. Wembley about the Gamma quadrant artifacts. Sisko
sends Dax and Odo to the Armstrong to find out what Johnson is
hiding. They discover that Wembley died of a stroke and Johnson
has covered up his death so that Wembley would get credit for the
Gamma quadrant discoveries. They also confirm that the
artifacts were not responsible for activating the mold. Since
mold activity has centered around the school, the children of
Keiko's class are questioned. Jake confesses to finding the
mold after he and Nog spilled chemicals in Dax's lab. The
chemicals activated the mold. Dax and Bashir learn how to kill
the mold and the station is cleaned up. Sisko invites the
Cardassians to return if they ever have problems with the mold.
This issue is polybagged with a Skybox DS9 trading card.
(Mike W. Barr; Gordon Purcell, Terry Pallot; Purcell, Pallot)

03    Oct 93    Old Wounds
Gul Trelar, born on Bajor, once known as "The Butcher of Bajor",
and now an old man, arrives at DS9 to acknowledge his
approaching death. Travelling with Trelar are his children
and second wife, a Bajoran who was once his prisoner. At his own
request, Trelar stays in one of Quark's holosuites, so that his
mother and childhood home can be simulated. At dinner with DS9
officers, Trelar collapses, Bashir administers medication,
and he is left alone in the holosuite to rest. The following
morning, Trelar is found stabbed to death, and there is no
record of anyone entering the holosuite. Nearly everyone is a
suspect. Odo uses his shapeshifting skills to conduct an
investigation and learns that Trelar's son programmed the
simulation of his father's mother to kill.
(Mike W. Barr; Rob Davis, Terry Pallot; Jerome Moore, Richard Ory)

04    Nov 93    Emancipation, 1
While collecting biological samples in the Gamma quadrant,
Dax and Bashir encounter an alien vessel carrying refugees in
need of medical assistance. Once they arrive at DS9, it becomes
apparent that the refugees are slaves, fleeing their owners.
Rogon, a representative of the Chiaran people, arrives at DS9
to reclaim the runaway slaves. The DS9 crew stalls while Sisko
tries to come up with a valid reason to offer asylum to the
slaves. Rogon is very convincing as he argues with
representatives of the slaves. Some already regret fleeing
through the wormhole. Dax finds evidence that the Chiarans may
have originated from the Federation side of the wormhole,
giving Sisko something to work with. One of the slaves sets off a
bomb, killing many of his comrades. So many of the slaves are
having second thoughts that their leader, Mardak, decides to
make the decision for them. Mardak hijacks a runabout and heads
for the wormhole, intending to destroy it.
(Mike W. Barr; Gordon Purcell, Terry Pallot;)

05    Dec 93    Emancipation, 2
Dax and O'Brien take a runabout in pursuit of Mardak. Using
phasers set at one-fiftieth power, O'Brien gives the hijacked
runabout a nudge out of the wormhole before it explodes, while
Dax transports Mardak and his accomplice to safety. Rogon's
hot-headed first officer, Caldor, has a run-in with Kira. Rogon
apologizes for his officer's behavior because he can see that
the violence of the runaways is trying Sisko's patience. When a
bomb explodes in Quark's, Rogon is severely injured and Mardak's
mother is killed. Rogon grants the runaways their freedom to
prevent more bloodshed. In response, Caldor incites his crew to
mutiny and attacks the station, in an effort to force return of
the slaves. O'Brien uses the Chiaran's own weapons to help stop
the attack. Rogon and Mardak leave DS9, one returning home, the
other taking his people to a new home.
(Mike W. Barr; Gordon Purcell, Terry Pallot; Purcell, Tim Eldred)

06    Jan 94    anthology
"Field trip" Sisko and Dax accompany Keiko O'Brien and her
class, on a field trip to the other side of the wormhole. On the
way back, an electrical malfunction injures Sisko and Dax, and
damages the runabout's guidance and telemetry systems. Keiko,
Jake, and Nog must find the wormhole and get the ship back to
safety before life support fails.
(Mike W. Barr; Rob Davis, Terry Pallot; Jerome Moore)
"Pickpocket" After losing his communicator to a pickpocket,
Bashir commiserates with Quark over Odo's absence and the lack
of security, even in the bar. Deciding to solve the case
themselves, Quark's Regulars (the customers who owe him
money) are pressed into decoy service. The self-deputized
constables catch a dangerous criminal and an innocent
accomplice.
(John Vornholt;;)
"Program 359" Dax and Bashir run into Sisko coming out of a
holosuite again. Dax is concerned about Sisko's repeated
trips visits to the holosuite. Bashir uses his medical
authority to examine Sisko's program. They discover that
Sisko has been fighting the battle of Wolf 359 over and over
again, losing each time. When Sisko catches them viewing his
program, Dax and Bashir learn that he has finally come to terms
with his actions at Wolf 359, and with his wife's death.
(Colin Clayton, Chris Dows;;)

07    Feb 94    Working vacation
To prevent Kira from disrupting discussions with Gul Dukat about
a mining agreement, Sisko assigns her the job of envoy to Zaria
5, on the other side of the wormhole. The contract administrator
of Zaria 5, a resort world, wants to discuss commercial
development with the Federation. On arrival, Kira learns that
she has been assigned a personal steward to attend to all her
needs. As she learns more about Zaria 5, she becomes
increasingly irritated. Zarian society consists of a master and
servant class. Each year, a negotiation by combat establishes
their contractual relationship, but since the servant class has
no trained warriors, they have never won a negotiation, and
remain virtual slaves. Kira's warrior blood boils when she
learns that her steward is this year's combatant for the
servants. She tries to teach him some basic fighting skills, but
he is not up to the task. Kira takes matters into her own hands
and takes her steward's place, winning the negotiation for the
servants. She leaves the planet in turmoil, but the servants are
in a position to establish a more equitable contract. Sisko is
upset with Kira, but she reminds him that she is not a Starfleet
officer, and not bound by the Prime Directive. Then she asks
Sisko when he will allow her another vacation.
(Len Strazewski; Rob Davis, Terry Pallot; Dan and David Day)

08    May 94    Requiem, 1
A young Bajoran girl is writing in her diary when the
Cardassians arrive and take her parents away. Two years later,
DS9's primary reactor fails. Sisko recruits Dulath, a
Cardassian engineer, to help O'Brien restart one of several
contaminated reactors before the backup reactor fails. O'Brien
reluctantly goes to work with Dulath, who was once DS9's chief
engineer. Sisko explains that he lost his job after shutting
down the contaminated reactors. While examining a conduit,
O'Brien discovers a functioning power generator and a diary.
Kira reads the diary and learns that a young girl, perhaps the
daughter of Bajoran resistance leader Malor Bet, once hid in the
conduit, with help from Quark. She questions Quark, but Dulath
has her answer. The girl's name was Malor Ti. Finding the diary
has affected Kira deeply. In a holosuite, she programs an image
of Malor Ti.
(Mark A. Altman; Gordon Purcell, Scott Reed; Gordon Purcell,
Terry Pallot)

09    Jun 94    Requiem, 2
Kira asks Sisko to let her search for Malor Ti, whom she
believes may still be alive and in hiding somewhere in the
quarantined area of DS9. O'Brien and Dulath decide to work
separately in order to restart an off-line reactor before the
backup reactor fails. While Odo conducts a search for the girl,
O'Brien finds a bomb in the reactor he and Dulath have been
working on. Uncertain whether to trust Dulath, Sisko goes with
O'Brien's gut instincts. After the backup reactor fails, Dulath
and O'Brien restart the off-line reactor just in time. O'Brien
also finds the body of Malor Ti in an access tube near the
reactor. Bashir determines that she died of radiation poisoning
several months before. Kira realizes that it was Malor Ti who
placed the bomb in the reactor and died for her efforts. A
Cardassian ship arrives to pick up Dulath. O'Brien bids goodbye
to a new friend and Kira mourns for a young girl. This issue
includes a four-page prelude to the DS9 mini-series, "Hearts and
Minds", summarized below.
(Mark A. Altman; Gordon Purcell, Scott Reed, Larry Welch;
Kirk, Terry Pallot)

10    Jun 94    Descendants
Two humanoid life forms arrive through the wormhole without a
spacecraft or protective gear. Sisko allows them to come
abooard, but is prevented from examining them by Bajoran
residents of the station, who believe the visitors to be
Prophets. The "Prophets" begin wandering throughout DS9, leaving
glowing, orb-like objects in their wake. While Dax speculates
that they might be Preservers, Odo is suspicious and
investigates. Watching the visitors touch station residents, Odo
confirms his suspicions that they are not what they appear to
be. When he finds an orb-like object he asks Bashir to examine
it. To their surprise, it hatches into a flying creature, which
they manage to contain in a force-field. The visitors assure
Sisko that the creatures are tame, but Odo instructs a security
guard to fire his phaser at the visitors. They are revealed as
adult creatures of the same type as the hatchlings. They inform
Sisko that DS9 has been chosen as an incubator for their young,
and the station's residents will serve as food. The creatures
prove resistant to phasers, but O'Brien transports them into
space, and the station's weapons are used to drive them back
into the wormhole.
(Dan Mishkin; Leonard Kirk, Terry Pallot; Kirk, Pallot)

11    Jul 94    A short fuse
Cardassians stage a surprise raid on DS9, taking over the
station and capturing the command crew. Jake and Nog are the
station's only hope. At least, that's how they imagine their
roles on DS9 to be. When Odo wanders by their usual perch, high
above the Promenade, they learn he is searching for signs of a
bomb. Sisko and Odo insist that the boys return to their
quarters. O'Brien recommends that they have patience with their
elders, but Jake and Nog sneak off to search on their own. Jake
wonders if things would be different if his mother were still
alive. When they find a suspicious object, Jake and Nog take it
to Ops, where they convince Dax to beam it into space (and into
the wormhole). Expecting to be hailed as heroes, the boys are
somewhat dismayed to learn that Odo found the bomb in Quark's
bar. O'Brien is considerably more than dismayed when he learns
that the "bomb" beamed into space was his long-awaited, brand
new sub-space field analyzer.
(Charles Marshall; Leonard Kirk, Bruce McCorkindale; Kirk, Terry
Pallot)

12    Jul 94    Baby on board
While counting the night's profits, Quark discovers an abandoned
Bajoran baby. It's too late to find someone else to do the dirty
work, so Quark takes the child home, and manages to feed and
change the child with only moderate success. The next morning,
Quark turns the baby over to Odo, who wears himself out morphing
his hands into amusing toys to try and calm the bawling infant.
Just before Odo becomes a puddle, Sisko arrives to take over.
Jake is late for school so he can't babysit. Sisko plays with
the child and reminisces about the days when Jake was a baby.
When Dax stops by, she is assigned daycare duty so that Sisko
can meet with a Federation inspector. The baby girl isn't
comfortable with Dax. Dr. Bashir suggests that the child wants
to breast-feed. Dax is relieved when the good doctor synthesizes
some Bajoran breast milk before he is called away for an
inspection. Kira arrives just in time to relieve Dax of diaper
duty and eventually sings the baby to sleep with a Bajoran
lullaby. When O'Brien arrives and wakes the baby, Kira gives him
custody. Called away to meet with the inspector, O'Brien leaves
the child in his quarters where Molly finds her and asks Keiko
if they can keep the baby. Keiko takes the infant to Ops, where
the Federation inspector is berating Sisko and his staff for
looking as though they haven't slept. Fortunately he understands
the rigors of parenthood and commends the DS9 staff for taking
care of the child, whose mother turns up in sickbay, having
misplaced her daughter while delerious with fever.
(Charles Marshall; Leonard Kirk, Bruce McCorkindale; Kirk, Terry
Pallot)

13    Aug 94    Lapse
Bashir vaccinates everyone aboard DS9, including Odo, to prevent
the spread of a virulent strain of Bajoran flu. Odo has agreed
to test security systems by staging a mock attack on the
station, but he reacts badly to the vaccine and becomes
convinced that everyone is out to get him. Quark tries to
convice Odo that they are friends, as does Kira. Odo's paranoia
creates havoc for station personnel until Bashir finds a puddle
of Odo. While recovering, Odo experiences vague and tantalizing
memories of his past. Also contains an interview with Mike Barr
and Michael Jan Friedman.
(Charles Marshall; Leonard Kirk, Bruce McCorkindale; Kirk, Terry
Pallot)

14    Sep 94    Dax's comet, 1
A Bajoran religious cult, living underground for centuries, is
ready to emerge again to greet the Messenger and wage the Battle
of the Gods. Meanwhile, the DS9 crew tries to maintain order in
the face of rumors of an impending apocalypse. Kira explains the
mythology of a planet-wide catastrophe occurring every two
thousand years. Dax believes the rumors may have some truth to
them because long-range sensors have detected a comet on a
collision course with the wormhole. The Guardians, leaders of
the religious cult, learn that Sisko has asked Starfleet for
permission to alter the comet's course. A saboteur dies in his
own blast without causing major damage to DS9, when the Guardians
arrive at the station. They demand that Sisko cease his
interference in spite of the threat to Bajor.
(Jerry Bingham; Tim Eldred; Bruce McCorkindale; Leonard Kirk,
Terry Pallot)

15    Oct 94    Dax's comet, 2
The station is in turmoil and the Guardians are escorted to a
security suite under protective custody. Guardian acolytes
resort to violence in an attempt to take control of the station,
but Odo thwarts their efforts. Sisko receives word from the
Federation, denying permission to interfere with the comet's
course, but Dax estimates that the comet's collision with the
wormhole will light up the quadrant. Sisko confronts the
Guardians, accusing them of cowardice for not helping rebuild
Bajoran civilization, while Dax talks Bashir, Kira, and Odo
through some complicated runabout manouvers to turn the comet
from its course, in spite of regulations. Note: When placed
side-by-side, the covers of issues #14 and #15 form a single
illustration.
(Jerry Bingham; Tim Eldred; Bruce McCorkindale; Leonard Kirk,
Terry Pallot)


<Malibu Comics> Hearts and Minds (mini-series)

09    Jun 94    Hearts and Minds: Prelude (DS9 #9 backup story)
After taking on supplies and a little R&R on DS9, a Klingon
vessel begins an exploratory mission into the Gamma Quadrant,
but they are attacked by Cardassians. Finding their weapons
sabotaged, the Klingons chose to self-destruct, doing as much
damage as they can, rather than surrender.
(Mark A. Altman; Rob Davis, Terry Pallot; na)

01    Jun 94    For the Glory of the Empire
A fleet of Klingon battle cruisers and destroyers arrives at DS9.
Their commander informs Sisko that they will protect DS9 in the
war with the Cardassians. Sisko learns about the Klingon ship
destroyed in the Gamma Quadrant and informs Starfleet. The
Federation dispatches a Betazoid negotiator to resolve the
conflict and instructs Sisko to hold things together until his
arrival. Sisko sends Dax, Bashir, and a Klingon officer to the
Gamma Quadrant to find the destroyed vessel's flight recorder.
Meanwhile, Quark is taking over the station's comm channels to
advertise his bar and a mysterious woman worms her way into his
confidence. Shortly after Gul Dukat arrives at DS9, the Betazoid
mediator arrives and his ship explodes, leaving Sisko to deal
with angry Klingons and Cardassians.
(Mark A. Altman; Rob Davis, Terry Pallot; Davis, Pallot)

01    Aug 94    For the Glory of the Empire
Deluxe edition with a hologram cover based on the illustrated
cover art by Rob Davis and Terry Pallot. According to net rumor,
there is a version with holograms on both the front and back
covers, but I haven't been able to confirm this. The hologram
issue (front hologram only) is being sold by comic book dealers
at prices ranging from $14.95 to $29.95. This issue is labeled
as a limited edition, even though the original solicitation
indicated that there would be no arbitrary production limits.

02    Jul 94    On the edge of armageddon
While Sisko keeps the Klingon and Cardassian delegations from
each other's throats, Odo and O'Brien investigate the explosion
which destroyed the negotiator's ship. Maura offers to buy
Quark's bar. Dax, Bashir, and Koleth arrive at Keltar, the last
reported stop of the K'Tang in the Gamma Quadrant. The Klingons
taking leave on Keltar direct the investigation towards Caldonia
3, a planet populated by cut-throats and mercenaries. Upon
arrival, the local "godfather" insists that the K'Tang was
destroyed because they went into the Abyss, where the dead
spirits go to rest. Back on DS9, Klingons and Cardassians go
beyond threats and Maura makes Quark an offer he can't refuse.
(Mark A. Altman; Rob Davis, Terry Pallot; Davis, Pallot)

03    Aug 94    Into the abyss
Quark asks Odo for protection from Maura. Odo instructs Quark to
go ahead and sell the bar. Dax, Bashir, and Koleth begin
searching for the K'Tang in an area of the Gamma Quadrant known
as the Abyss. While the Cardassians prepare for war, Quark
concludes the sale of his bar and Odo sneaks aboard Maura's
ship. Quark enlists Morn to check the cargo containers that
Maura was transporting. In the Abyss, evidence proving that
Cardassians didn't destroy the K'Tang is found. Sisko gives the
Klingon and Cardassian delegations an ultimatum. Quark finds
Romulan disruptors in Maura's cargo. The away team's
investigation leads them to a planet wracked by ion storms. They
land, hoping to find K'Tang survivors, but find Romulans
instead. Also contains interviews with Mike Barr and Michael Jan
Friedman, and an essay by Mark Altman.
(Mark A. Altman; Rob Davis, Terry Pallot; Davis, Pallot)

04    Sep 94    Masters of war, 4
Dax, Bashir, and Koleth are separated and imprisoned by their
Romulan captors. Kira arrests and questions Maura about her
smuggling activities. The Romulan commander explains his plan to
set the Klingons and Cardassians at each other's throats so the
the Romulan Empire can gain a foothold in the Gamma Quadrant.
Sisko is forced to use his runabouts to protect Cardassian ships
from Klingons. Odo arrives at the Romulan base aboard Maura's
ship and helps the away team escape. They arrive back at DS9 in
time to prevent a Klingon-Cardassian war, with the Romulans in
pursuit. The Klingons gleefully take their revenge upon the
Romulan ship.
(Mark A. Altman; Rob Davis, Terry Pallot; Davis, Pallot)

NOTE: I haven't seen this publication, nor do I know how or to
whom it has been distributed.

01    Oct 94    Prophets and losses, 1 of 4 (DC Comics)
The crew of the Enterprise gets acquainted with DS9 after
ferrying several Starfleet officers to the station. When the
officers disappear after entering the wormhole, Picard is placed
in charge of the investigation. On Bajor, religious
fundamentalists consider the wormhole's apparent instability as
a sign from the Prophets. Aboard DS9, sensors indicate an
attempt to access an old Cardassian computer link. Odo, Kira,
and Worf investigate and discover Cardassian sabotuers.
(Michael Jan Friedman, Mike W. Barr; Gordon Purcell, Terry
Pallot; Sonia Hillios)

01    Oct 94    The wormhole trap, 2 of 4 (Malibu Comics)
While the wormhole's instability plays havoc with Bajoran
weather, the investigation continues. Kira, Odo, and Worf lose
the Cardassian trespassers when they transport to a nearby
sensor-camoflaged ship and escape into the wormhole. Data and
Dax investigate how the Cardassians can travel through the
wormhole, while Bashir and Crusher look into an odd flux in the
genome set of some blood shed by one of the Cardassians. LaForge
and O'Brien examine the old circuitry which the Cardasians were
trying to activate. Gul Dukat protests accusations of Cardassian
interference, but Troi feels he is telling the truth. Riker
assembles an away team to attempt entering the wormhole and
reluctantly agrees to let Kira join them. The doctors determine
that the blood sample left by the saboteur isn't Cardassian,
but belongs to an unknown race. Riker, Kira, and their away team
barely make it through the wormhole and are captured in the
tractor beam of an alien vessel after spotting the missing
runabout.
