Last week, the world learned of the passing of writer Peter David. David was probably best known for his work on The Incredible Hulk, but for me, he was one of the absolute best writers of Star Trek novels and comic books of the late-20th century. In that vein, I can think of no better tribute to pay to him than to review the very last Star Trek comic book he wrote as part of a long run as the book's regular author (not the last such comic he ever wrote. Just his last as the regular author): Star Trek Vol. 2, No. 19, cover dated May, 1991. The title of the story is "Once a Hero!"
