Collecting four issues of the fan-favorite Star Trek comic books released by DC Comics in the 1990s, written by Howard Weinstein and Michael Jan Friedman, IDW's Star Trek: Archives, Volume 3: The Gary Seven Collection explores the continued adventures of alien-agent-on-Earth Gary Seven. First seen crossing paths with the crew of the USS Enterprise™ in the 1968 Star Trek second season episode "Assignment: Earth," Seven is stationed on Earth by his otherworldly overseers to prevent nuclear war. And he's not alone. Along with his secretary Roberta, his "cat" Isis, the Beta 5 computer, and his multi-function Servo, Seven must protect the Earth to insure the creation of the United Federation of Planets.
