"Starting on May 17, a new "Star Trek story" set on the space station Deep Space 9 is coming in the form of an ambitious 40-episode webcomic series - from popular platform WEBTOON - called Stargazers. For longtime fans of Trek, this will be a familiar era, but focused on all-new characters navigating day-to-day life, and YA-style romance."
"From popular writer Sam Maggs, there's a second webcomic launching later this year called Recollection, which will be Voyager-inspired and take place on a starship. Courtesy of WEBTOON, Kisai Entertainment, and Paramount, here's an exclusive first look at the premises of both Stargazers and Recollection. Plus, preview art, character concepts, and character descriptions from Stargazers."
"Set within the legendary universe fans know and love, Stargazers and Recollection include all-new canon adventures that build on Star Trek series like Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and Star Trek: Voyager, by focusing on new characters and locations unique to this platform. As standalone series, they also invite a new generation of fans to experience the next frontier of the franchise's 60-year legacy in WEBTOON's vertical-scroll webcomic format."
"Crucially, because all the characters in both new series are new, readers who are not hardcore Trekkies will have an easier time understanding what's going on. But, because the DS9 and Voyager eras are so rich and lived-in, it stands to reason that even for the uninitiated fan, the lore will be intriguing enough, but not too heavy as to interfere with the story."
Stargazers launches May 17 as a 40-episode WEBTOON webcomic set on the space station Deep Space 9. The series follows all-new characters handling day-to-day life and YA-style romance in the familiar 24th-century era. Recollection launches later in 2026 and is Voyager-inspired, taking place on a starship with a separate set of new characters. Both series present standalone canon adventures that build on established Star Trek settings while remaining accessible to readers who are not hardcore Trekkies. The vertical-scroll webcomic format is positioned to bring a new generation into the franchise’s 60-year legacy.
