Gold Key Comics Star Trek #14 hit spinners in May 1972. It was once again written by Len Wein, with art by Alberto Giolitti and a cover painting by George Wilson. We find Kirk, Spock and a landing party conducting a survey on Beta II . They decide to cover more ground by splitting up….

Gold Keys Comics continued its Star Trek adventures, with The Flight of the Buccaneer, its twelfth issue, which hit comic spinners for November of 1971. Len Wein once again served as the storyteller, Alberto Giolitti continued to work as artist, and George Wilson painted another cover. This one ends up just being a silly pirate…

Star Trek: The Legacy of Lazarus (1971)
Len Wein takes over writing duties for Gold Keys Star Trek title, while Alberto Giolitti continues delivering wonderful art (even if the characters and locations don’t always look the way the should). Found on comic spinners for February 1971, Wein’s first story was The Legacy of Lazarus. The splash page makes fans recall The Savage…
Star Trek: The Youth Trap (1970)
In September of 1970, Dick Wood and Alberto Giolitti delivered issue number eight of the Gold Keys Comics Star Trek series. And while it makes no sense in relation fo the series, I do like the image of the captain’s log being transcribed into an actual log book. Though the stardates are still ridiculously wrong….
Star Trek: The Voodoo Planet (1970)
Of all the Gold Key stories I’ve read so far, I like this one the least. It’s not very Star Trek, it’s just an issue of silliness using voodoo dolls, chants and magic potions. Not very Trek at all. The writing is once again by Dick Wood, and Alberto Giolittie continues to deliver the art…
Star Trek: When Planets Collide (1969)
Writer Dick Wood and artist Alberto Giolitti continue Gold Keys Comics journeys with the U.S.S. Enterprise with When Planets Collide. It was released for December 1969. And that had to be horrible for Trek fans. It’s December, 1969. There’s been a grand total of six issues since October 1967! The dramatic opening splash page has…
