Warning! Warning! Massive spoilers for Star Trek: Red Shirts #5 ahead!

Star Trek just pulled off the shock of the year. It sounds like hyperbole, but the final issue of Red Shirts might have delivered the greatest twist ending in Trek history. Throughout its run, Red Shirts managed to be innovative even when it was predictable, but it’s fair to say that absolutely nobody saw the ending coming.

Star Trek: Red Shirts #5 is written by Christopher Cantwell, with art by Megan Levens. To call it “legitimately stunning” is an understatement.

Many readers expected narrator Ensign Miller would be the last Red Shirt standing, but it was impossible to predict that he would turn out to be a traitor to Starfleet and stone-cold killer.
