FEBRUARY 9, 2022 - With only a couple of weeks to go until the release of Star Trek: Klingons, the first in IDW’s special “Alien Spotlight” series, now ComicBook.com brings news of the second issue being produced, Star Trek: Ferengi.

From the issue’s cover art, it’s clear that Ferenginar has become a hotbed of gender politics, showing an exasperated Quark and his empowered mother Ishka, paired with the intriguing tagline, “The Future is Female.” The official synopsis sets up a culture-shaping battle that likely confronts the long-standing patriarchy of the Ferengi race:

Dive deeper into the world of Star Trek with another extra-long issue focusing on the memorable aliens of the franchise! This month: Follow Quark on an unforgettable adventure to Ferenginar, where mother, brother, and brother challenge the very core beliefs of Ferengi culture. Witness Ferengi history change forever in this can't-miss issue!

Written by Christina Rice and featuring artwork by fellow IDW vet Andy Price, Star Trek: Ferengi will release in April and will retail for $7.99.
