D.C. Fontana comics on the way

In an interview with TrekMovie.com D.C. Fontana has confirmed she is working on a new Star Trek comic miniseries which the ever resourceful website has confirmed from IDW will be going ahead.

The series will be a five part story arc continuing on from IDW's Year Four series and will be featuring Arex but maybe not M'Ress.

That will be co-written by Derek Chester, as will a new Star Trek novel Fontana is working on, also set in the classic TOS era. The site also reports Fontana has approached Paula Block about reworking the cancelled computer game she wrote "Secrets of Vulcan Fury" into a novel.
