Trust for most humans is very fragile. As we tend to hold it close. That is why when it is broken, sometimes, it can never be mended. This is different when you are in the military.
As you are put in some precarious situations and unless you know the person in those situations it can be life or death. That is the amazing and scariest part about serving, that learning to trust is your first lesson in emotional intelligence. As this essential especially in a combat zone. In Star Trek: Picard – Stargazer #2, we find Picard and Seven of Nine banding together to save a colony and the Stargazer.
We are taken back 27 years ago before the events of the debut issue, where the reader finds out that the Romulans conquered and drained all resources from the planet, eventually, leaving their slaves there to die. We are taken present day, where Seven of Nine and Jean-Luc, are pinned taking on fire from the Romulan Marauders, who are there to wipe out what is left of the indigenous population, which prompts Seven o introduce Picard and the away team from the Stargazer to Ikal, the leader of the Jenjoran survivors, as they collaborate on an offensive plan to defeat the marauders. Unfortunately, the marauders get a jump on them, finding Jenjorans hideout and their leader Reska, revealing herself.. By the issue’s end, Picard and the Jenjorans are taken prisoner and a Romulan Warbirdhas enter the same airspace.
Overall, Star Trek: Picard – Stargazer #2 is a sweeping second issue which speeds up the story. The story by the creators is exhilarating. The art by the creative team is stunning. Altogether, an issue that shows why Picard is one of Star Trek’s most exciting protagonists.
