IDW Publishing is continuing their multi-year Star Trek licensed property crossover comics this year with a newly-announced miniseries combining Captain Kirk’s Animated Series-era crew with the heroic robots in disguise in 2018’s Star Trek vs. Transformers.

Announced today via io9Star Trek vs. Transformers is coming this September as a four-issue tale from writers John Barber and longtime Trek comic scribe Mike Johnson, telling the crossover story with help from artist Philip Murphy and colorist Leonardo Ito.

Per io9’s report, the story will start with the USS Enterprise encountering Optimus Prime and the rest of the Autobots near Klingon space, where the teams must join forces to save a dilithium mine under siege.

From writer Mike Johnson:

“This is a crossover several decades in the making, and we could not be more thrilled to bring it to fans.

John and I are having a blast writing the first meeting of Starfleet and Cybertronians, and Phil is the perfect artist to bring these two franchises together on the page.”

IDW is no slouch when it comes to Trek crossover adventures, with previous tales including the franchise mixing with Planet of the ApesDoctor Who, and Green Lantern — along with a later-cancelled effort at crossing The Next Generation with the world of Aliens.

Watch for our review of this miniseries when it arrives this September!
