Star Trek: Starfleet Academy (comic)

Series of comics published by Marvel.

Premise
Star Trek: Starfleet Academy was a comic book series published by Marvel Comics (as part of a licensed line called "Paramount Pictures Comics"), running for 19 issues from December 1996 until June 1998.

This series followed "Omega Squad" and their days at Starfleet Academy. Omega Squad included Cadet Nog from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. This series included a special Klingon Language edition of issue 18, which was translated by Lawrence Schoen, Alan Anderson and David Trimboli of the Klingon Language Institute.

The stardates of these stories place the series beginning during DS9 Season 4, just after Nog arrived at Earth (in ) and continue until a point in DS9 Season 6. Several canon characters and concepts were included in the stories, but much of the history and details were devised solely for these stories.
