Star Trek: Red Shirts (Issues #1–5) takes one of Star Trek’s oldest franchise jokes and turns it into a brutal, violent sci-fi survival mystery.
Written by Christopher Cantwell with art by Megan Levens, this IDW miniseries follows Starfleet’s most expendable crew members on a deadly mission filled with spies, Romulans, Klingons, hidden agendas, and horrifying deaths.

In this review, I break down:

the Red Shirt concept twist
the Arkonia 89 mission
the mystery behind Mission Squawkbox
Megan Levens’ career-best artwork
and why this feels more like Event Horizon than classic Star Trek

If you enjoy Star Trek comics, sci-fi horror, or military conspiracy stories, this is absolutely worth checking out.
