- Blurb
- Hot off their Eisner nomination for Lower Decks tie-in "Shaxs' Best Day", stellar duo Ryan North and Derek Charm are kicking off a brand-new ongoing series that's a big fun adventure on a big fun ship... wherein Dr. T'Ana saves the crew from a virulent, purple-boiled disease that is sure to – wait, no, everyone's cured pretty quickly, actually. Okay... wherein Deep Space 2's distress call is mysteriously cut off and the crew has to – wait, nope, they just needed some help resetting their comms systems. ALL RIGHT, WHEREIN Mariner gets so totally frustrated with the lack of thrills aboard the Cerritos that she drags her friends into a holodeck adventure that would definitely kill them in reality! Should totally provide them all with a sense of purpose and well-being, right? Right. Or at least it would have. If the U.S.S. Bonaventure hadn't shown back up from the Delta Triangle to provide them with a real challenge. It's time to explore a ghost ship, baby!
