==Background information==
* This graphic novel was re-released in by IDW Publishing, under its Star Trek Classics line.
* Despite how the book was marketed, this was not the first Star Trek work for Anderson and Moesta. The couple had previously written a Deep Space Nine novel, Highest Score, under the pseudonym Kem Antilles. ( )
*The paperback edition states that the comic "kick-started a new era of Star Trek comic strip excitement".
*The following blurb seems to place the comic at the same time as to : "The battle for Deep Space Nine and the wormhole has gone badly, so where – in DS9's hour of need – is the Federation's flagship, the Enterprise E? Captain Picard and crew are up to their necks in a full-blown invasion of their own, attacked on all sides by the fearsome race known as the Gorn".
