November 1973 saw the next issue (21) of Star Trek from Gold Key comics. It was writte by John David Warner, and featured art by Alberto Giolitti (which is getting more inline with the series by the issue) and featured a cover painting by George Wilson. Didn’t we just have a spooky story in the…

Gold Comics conintued to boldly go in July 1973, with their next Star Trek issue. The Haunted Asteroid featured a story by Arnold Drake, with art by Alberto Giolitti and Sal Trapani.

Star Trek: The Planet of No Return (1967)
