Star Trek Magazine Star Trek Magazine – known as Star Trek Monthly until issue 110 – is an official magazine , published eight times a year , featuring news , interviews and reviews covering all five live - action series , the and the movies . First published on as a monthly title , the magazine began life in the UK , but soon expanded to Ireland and Australasia , with limited distribution in Europe . Early in its run , the magazine featured reprints of several DC Comics - produced comic strips , but this ended after issue 22 . With issue 113 , the publication went to a bi - monthly release schedule , and increased its page count from 68 to 100 . Before this change , various issues were special " bumper " releases ( 100 pages , costing £4 . 99 , usually with a gift – typically a Titan - released " Trek " book ) to commemorate a specific occasion , such as the 30th and 35th anniversaries , the end of , and others . A separate North American edition of the magazine came into being in , otherwise synchronized with the UK version for contents , due in part to the loss of the " " in 2005 , which had aggravated the previous 2003 loss of , leaving the home market devoid of any and all " official " " Star Trek " franchise magazines . Issue # 1 of the run – bi - monthly like the UK edition – was released on . Numbering of the UK edition maintained its internal continuity , with the US # 1 being relatively the same as UK issue 128 . Later US editions returned to 68 pages in length , with the additional UK pages being inserted in the form of a supplement at the center of the magazine . This practice was quickly discontinued , and the various editions were standardized with issue 134 . The magazine is now printed in the United States rather than the UK , meaning that US distribution now takes place some time before UK release . A special cover is available for specialist comic shops ordering via the Diamond " Previews " magazine . For issue 137 , and all subsequent 100 - page editions , a new binding format and magazine size was introduced . The issue was perfect bound ( instead of saddle - stitched ) , and measured 8 inches wide × 11 inches high ( instead of 9 × 12 ) . The following issue retained the size , but returned to saddle - stitching . With this issue , the UK edition lost its 100 - page length , becoming 68 pages long . The magazine is now regularly 100 pages in length . International editions . An edited internationally translated version , the quarterly German - language 68 - page Star Trek : Das offizielle Magazin , has been published in the period 1998 - 2007 by OZ Verlag GmbH , its first issue released in March 1998 . With the publication up and running , OZ Verlag offered their readership binders for their magazines in two , " Captains " and " Aliens " , variants , something the publisher of the source publication has not done . However , with the next issue already announced , the magazine unexpectedly ceased publication in 2007 , which caught magazine subscribers by surprise . In July that year , responding to reader questions , Chief editor Oliver Denker cited failed negotiations with a " mercurial " CBS Consumer Products as reasons for the sudden , and completely unexpected cessation of the publication after only 38 issues . Remarkably , Titan Magazines itself started in December of the same year with an unedited translated 68 - page version of the magazine in Germany , its – which as a " special issue " had a 100 - page count – becoming the first issue of the monthly Star Trek : Das offizielle monatliche Magazin . However , for otherwise undisclosed reasons , the release did not last very long , and became the last , fourteenth issue in the German magazine release in January 2000 . If the later problems of Editor Denker of the contemporary competing magazine had in any way been related , has likewise remained undisclosed . Issues .
