The Light of Kahless #4 preview

Out this week is, at last, is the final issue of the first Star Trek: Discovery comic series, The Light of Kahless. The story brings T'Kuvma's life story to a conclusion, running right up to the start of the first episodes of Discovery, and delivering a surprising twist on those events.

The book is written by Kirsten Beyer and Mike Johnson, with art from Tony Shasteen, who also provides the A cover featuring L'Rell, completing the series of Klingon major character portraits for the series' main covers. The B cover is a photo of two mourning Klingons. There are also two retail incentive covers; Angel Hernandez' design, coloured by Esther Sanz, features T'Kuvma leading a rather menacing group of Klingons with blades drawn, and Declan Shavley, and colourist Jordie Bellair's final ships cover of the series features the USS Discovery.

You can check out all the covers and a five page preview from this issue below:

You can continue reading this story by picking up a copy at your local comic book shop, or from online retailers like these: Amazon, Things From Another World, Forbidden Planet, iTunes. Or if you can wait, the omnibus book for the whole series is available for pre-order; with this issue delayed from an originally planned January release, the omnibus has been pushed back accordingly and is now expected to arrive in August.
