Modala Imperative Appraisal

Star Trek: The Next Generation - The Modala Imperative Comic Book, Issue #1

This item is a comic book titled 'Star Trek: The Next Generation - The Modala Imperative', specifically Issue #1. The front cover features a vibrant, multi-character illustration against a cosmic background. Prominently in the upper right, Captain Jean-Luc Picard is depicted in his signature red Starfleet uniform, bald and clean-shaven. To his left, and slightly below, is an older gentleman with white hair and a green-blue jacket. Above them, to the left, is a character with brown skin and dark hair, possibly a Klingon or Romulan, wearing a reddish-brown tunic. In the lower left, a smaller ensemble of characters from the 'Star Trek: The Next Generation' crew is visible, including Data, Geordi La Forge, Worf, Deanna Troi, and William Riker. The USS Enterprise NCC-1701-D starship is flying through space in the mid-section of the cover. The title 'STAR TREK THE NEXT GENERATION' is boldly displayed in yellow and orange lettering at the top, with 'THE MODALA IMPERATIVE' beneath it in white. The comic appears to be published by DC Comics, indicated by the 'DC' logo in the upper left corner, and priced at $1.90. The creative team 'BY PETER DAVID & PABLO MARCUS' is listed on the right side. The comic book is housed within a clear plastic sleeve, suggesting an attempt at preservation. The overall condition appears to be good for its age, though slight wear might be present along the edges or corners, common for comic books that have been handled. The colors on the cover remain relatively bright and unfaded. It represents a piece of Star Trek memorabilia from the 'The Next Generation' era, likely from the early to mid-1990s based on the comic book pricing and publication style.
