"Split Infinities" TNG comic

Captain's log, supplemental

Commander Data has been taken by an unidentified intruder. Until facts indicate otherwise, we are proceeding under the assumption that Data is alive. Due to the nature of our mission, and proximity to the Neutral Zone, we must consider the possibility that the Romulans may be responsible.

TNG comic Future Imperiled

• Captain's log ... We continue to purse the trail left by Commander Data's abductors. Fortunately, we were able to discern the residual presence of triolic waves in the spot Data was taken from. That is how we know the Devidians are responsible for his disappearance. The fact that the triolic wave emissions lead straight to their home system is only the icing on the cake. Of course, we have encountered the Devidians before. And where they are involved, one cannot help but wonder... was Data transported through time as well as space? Actually, that possibility seems increasingly likely in light of...

• As I was saying, Data's transport through time as well as space seems increasingly likely in light of Guinan's observations. After all, she seems to have a sense about the timestream and she has informed me that someone is tampering with it, creating subtle alterations. That someone would appear to be the Devidans. If this is so, Data's abduction may only be the tip of the iceberg.

• In the meantime, I find myself wondering in what ways the time stream may have changed. Is there – difficult as it is to imagine – some sort of peace between the Federation and the Romulans? Is the Federation safer from Romulan aggression in the unaltered course of events? And what of myself? Am I still a captain in that other frame of reference? A husband? A father perhaps? Someone's lover?

• Captain's log, supplemental. There's a lot be said for omnipotence … TNG comics The First Casualty

  Captain's log, supplemental.

  We have met the starship Achilles. In order to take aboard Kyle Riker, my first officer's father. We will need the elder Riker's particular expertise on Tholian military tactics if we are to defuse the threat at hand. Fortunately, my first officer assures me there will be no hard feelings between him and his father… despite the face that Kyle Riker abandoned his son to pursue his career… when the boy was only fifteen.

TNG comics A Handful of Dust

• Captain's log, supplemental.

  After two days of sheer frustration, I have been forced to withdraw our away team from the Alpha Unuria colony.

  Captain's log, supplemental.

  The Tholians' energy web continues to constrict about the Enterprise. Power levels are dropping steadily. The moment of our destruction approaches… and we are no closer to solving the problem than we were before.

TNG comics Ceremony of Innocence

• Captain's log, supplemental.

  Gowron does not make empty threats. We now have one more reason to stop the Tholians... as if the colonies they devastated were not reason enough.

TNG comics Cry Havoc

• Captain's log, supplemental.

  I have managed to get both Nethrax and the Klingons to agree on the necessity of this mission. I only wish I was a certain about its outcome.

  Captain's log, supplemental.

  How long can I keep up this deadly poker game… before the Tholians call my bluff?

  Bitácora del capitán, complementaria.

  Tras reparar su nave insignia, los tholianos se han despedido de nosotros. Nethrax ha sido restituido como primer oficial, en reconocimiento a sus contribuciones a la paz. Si se me permite decirlo, es un reconocimiento bien merecido. Solo espero que este sea el comienzo de una mejora en las relaciones con los tholianos, quizás incluso algún tipo de vínculos diplomáticos... Sin embargo, no cuento con ello en absoluto.

  Bitácora del capitán, fecha estelar 48275.8.

  Mi sugerencia de que Hugh liderara a su gente fue acertada, si se me permite decirlo. Espero que el incidente de Enab no haya sido más que una aberración... y que esta sociedad Borg se desarrolle a partir de ahora sin contratiempos significativos.

TNG comic "Pandora's Prodigy"

Captain's log

We have arrived at the research station Delta Six to receive two negotiators from neighboring star systems. The Colistarrs defeated the Phrea Elendren in a bloody war prior to Starfleet's discovery of the two cultures, but that incident was resolved over fifty years ago. The Enterprise was specifically requested by the two governments, with myself as the sole mediator in an attempt to resolve a comprehensive trade disagreement which has tempers flaring on both sides…

Captain's log

We have completed negotiations successfully. An attempted assassination of Senator Tann was thwarted by Lieutenant Worf. Transporter systems have been upgraded. End entry. Nothing else unusual to report.

TNG comic In the Sleep of Death, What Dreams May Come

Captain's log, stardate 48503.1

Chief Du're has transported to the Enterprise in order to try to determine how the Chova has been brought on board. Normally, I would assign Lieutenant Worf or someone else from security to aid it, but with the security staff depleted by the Chova, I have given Lieutenant Commander Data the assignment.

Captain's log, supplemental

We remain in orbit around Damiano. Our mission to this Federation member planet was originally to both attend and provide additional security for the inauguration of Governor Ra'ch B'ullhy. Due to our success in the latter endeavor—preventing several attempts on Governor Ra'ch's life—the Enterprise crew has been targeted by the assassins. They have used security officer T'Mor as the vessel of an ancient Damiani telepathic weapon called the Chova. This weapon, which attacks through dreams and waking hallucinations, has devastated the security staff, as well as most of the Enterprise's senior staff. After extensive research into old records provided by the Damiano police, Doctors Crusher and Selar, aided by Lieutenant Commander Data, have only one solution to the problem. The only people immune to the Chova are those afflicted with multiple personality disorder—a case which hasn't been reported in the Federation for decades. However, my own experiences with the Kataan probe, Ambassador Sarek, and the Borg have, according to Doctor Crusher, given me the makings of an MPD. I am therefore volunteering to undergo a mind meld with Doctor Selar in order to bring the suppressed personalities of Kamin of Kataan, Sarek, and Locutus of Borg to the fore.

TNG comics Sky's the Limit

Captain's log, stardate 48516.7

The Enterprise has been ordered to Akavan III, where a Maquis cell is threatening that Federation's colony's 1.2 billion inhabitants. The Maquis are demanding that the Federation reclaim settlements lost to the Cardassians in the Demilitarized Zone. Even if the Federation were willing to consider demands from terrorists, such an action would violate our treaty with the Cardassians and potentially send us into a war. It is also extremely unusual for Maquis activity to take place this far inside Federation space. If this is an escalation of their hostilities, it is our charge to stop it in its tracks.

Investigation of the Nexus

• "Captain's Log, Stardate 48632.4. Doctor Crusher has informed me that Data's emotion chip has been fused into his neural net and cannot be removed. However, she believes he is fit for duty, so I've asked him to join me in Stellar Cartography."

• "Captain's Log, Stardate 48650.1. Three Starfleet vessels have arrived in orbit and have begun to beam up the Enterprise survivors. Our casualties were light, but unfortunately, the Enterprise herself cannot be salvaged." (Star Trek Generations)
