Comment(s):

Chronologically, for the crew of the Enterprise, this story takes place some time after the Star Trek (The Original Series) episode "Requiem for Methuselah" which was set in the year 2269.
Though many other Legionnaires may appear on the various issue covers of this series, unless notated in the indexing above they do not make an appearance within the story itself.
Page 19 features numerous time travel devices from various media. Special thanks to Science Fiction & Fantasy Stack Exchange for the four items I could not figure out:
  • the Master's TARDIS from Doctor Who episode "Logopolis"
  • the TARDIS from Doctor Who
  • Hot Tub Time Machine
  • the Cosmic Treadmill
  • Rip Hunter's Time Sphere
  • Omni from Voyagers!
  • Dagger of Time from Prince of Persia
  • Time-pod from Star Trek: The Next Generation: "A Matter of Time"
  • the Time Tunnel
  • Atavachron and disk from Star Trek TOS episode "All Our Yesterdays"
  • the Time Machine from Time After Time
  • Time Sled from Timecop (Dark Horse Comics, August-October 1992)
  • the Aeon from Star Trek: Voyager: "Future's End", "Future's End, Part II"
  • the phone booth from Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure
  • Stargate
  • Lazarus' spaceship from Star Trek TOS episode "The Alternative Factor"
  • Time Machine from H.G. Wells' Time Machine
  • the Delorean from Back to the Future II
Lt. Commander Montgomery Scott does not appear in this issue's story.
Story continued from the previous issue and continues in the next issue.

Solicitation:

In the distant past, one team of Legionnaires and Starfleet officers come face to face with the force that erased both of their timelines from existence, while in the altered 23rd century another team confronts the latter-day version of that same force. But now that they know how history was changed, can anything be done to set things right?
