In a long and distinguished career, Captain Jean-Luc Picard and his crew have faced uncounted foes and vanquished incredible dangers. But what happens when the enemy can''t be easily seen -- when it lurks in the shadows, disguises itself as polite society, or emerges from the depths of one''s own mind? These are the antagonists with which the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise must contend with in this volume, the most dangerous kind of enemy -- the enemy unseen. Contains the three stories Perchance to Dream, Embrace the Wolf, and The Killing Shadows.
As with most of the recent Star Trek comics, Enemy Unseen collects three stories that either have a good story but awful art or the other way around.Perchance to Dream is a fantastic story by novelist Keith DeCandido (his Diplomatic Implausibilty is the best Trek novel of the last year), but with awful, stiff, clunky art by Peter Pachoumis.Embrace the Wolf is a cleverly written TNG sequel to the TOS episode "Wolf in the Fold" by Buffy novelists Christopher Golden and Tom Sniegoski, done in by AWFUL art by Dave Hoover.The best art is by Andrew Currie, who does a great job with The Killing Shadows, but it's illustrating a really boring story by Scott Ciencin. A pity Currie couldn't have drawn one of the other two.Still, it's worth it for the two good stories.
