Written by Tim Sheridan.

On a mission to collect gormangander excrement, the U.S.S. Cerritos is attacked by a Ferengi warship! The Ferengi are hot on the tail of a debt dodger who owes them a fortune-D’Vana Tendi. But as a member of Starfleet, Tendi has no way to earn the money to pay them back, and if she tells her family in the Orion Syndicate, they’ll simply murder her to clear the account. One thing is for certain: If Tendi can’t devise a way to clear her ledger, the Lower Deckers are going to find themselves in deep doo, regardless of whether they find any gormaganders.

Fascinating! Federation President Antos in this story uses the name from the recent Star Trek: Omega one-shot coda to Star Trek and Star Trek: Defiant!

Honestly, when I read the name Antos from Star Trek: Omega, I wondered if those authors had botched their research again and forgotten that Bareil Antos from DS9 was dead and used Bajoran name format. But it seems to be a nod to IDW editor Heather Antos, hence President Antos being a human woman with comparable hair color.

IDW has a minimal presense at Shore Leave (I'm at the show now!) No one from their marketing team is here, just some consultants/editors and one artist, j.k. woodward. I'd love to see more from them at this show, but it's mostly legacy authors represented. I bet we'll get more from Vegas in a few weeks
