IDW Publishing, CBS Consumer Products, and XPRIZE have joined forces to present fans with an all-special issue, Star Trek Special: Flesh and Stone. Imagine your favorite Star Trek Doctor in a race against time to save the galaxy's sick patients and the captain's crew.

Plot Synopsis:

A Starfleet medical conference has been crashed by a deadly metamorphic virus. The EMH and Doctors Beverly Crusher, Julian Bashir and Katherine Pulaski (with some help from Leonard McCoy and Phlox) join forces in a race against time to find a cure -  only to discover that the answers lie in another place and time! The clock is ticking and only the medical officers of Starfleet can save the day. 

Inspired by Star Trek's Tricorder, the Qualcomm Tricorder XPRIZE is a global competition in which 30 teams are competing to develop a consumer-friendly, mobile device capable of diagnosing and interpreting a set of health conditions and vital health metrics.Vice President of Brand & Content for XPRIZE Rob Hollander states, "While XPRIZE is currently catalyzing a future where a Tricorder-like device is a common household item, we are thrilled to have inspired this parallel Star Trek story centered around the use of the Tricorder, further blurring the line between science fiction and reality."

Writer Scott Tipton explains his excitement for the project, "There aren't very many 'firsts' left in the world of Star Trek. So when IDW and XPRIZE came to us with the opportunity to team up all six of Trek's doctors for the first time, how could we say no?"

Co-writer David Tipton further adds, "The tricky part is how to get them together, since some of them are separated by about two hundred years. How does it happen? You'll just have to wait and see..."

Don't miss out on this special event where all 6 Star Trek are put together in one room to svae the enitre universe. This July, get ready to set your phasers to stun when Star Trek Special: Flesh and Stone.
