Star Trek #4 (Marvel Comics, 1980) - Grab This Cosmic Keeper!
Sales Pitch Funnier Than Bones’ GripesYo, Trekkies and comic hunters! Star Trek #4 (1980) is a wild ride—think Enterprise crew vs. Klingon mind-games and monsters that’d spook a Vulcan. It’s quirky, it’s retro, and it’s rarer than a smiling Q. Buy it now, or you’ll regret it more than Kirk’s worst pickup line!
Why It’s Awesome-
Story: “The Haunting of Thallus” kicks off a two-parter with Kirk, Spock, and co. battling thought-spawned beasties (vampires in space, anyone?). Written by Mike W. Barr, art by Dave Cockrum—it’s Bronze Age Trek at its nuttiest.
-
Vibe: Campy Star Trek: The Motion Picture energy. Perfect for reading while dodging tribbles.
-
Rarity: Only 18 issues in Marvel’s run; this one’s a fan-fave for its oddball plot.
