An Infinite Jest

"An Infinite Jest" is the seventh issue of Marvel Comics's Star Trek Unlimited series, published in January 1998. This issue is the second issue of the series to feature a single feature-length story, and the first of the series to have a crossover interaction between and. Previously, Issue 6 had a feature length story that omitted TOS from Unlimited for the first time (due to the Telepathy War crossover), while Unlimited, Issue 4 had a TOS and TNG tie-in, although the two series did not directly interact in the two stories in that issue.
