Back cover
- Japanese-style sequential art combines with the most renowned science fiction franchise ever created to capture the spirit of the original series in a completely new way. Ten artists and writers deliver tales of triumph aboard the original NCC-1701. Like the original TV series, these new journeys venture into the terrain of social politics, personal reflection...and bare-knuckled brawls between the dashing Captain Kirk and various indigenous beasts. Spock's unflappable logic, Bones' flare for drama, Scotty's perpetual struggle to keep the lights on...all come at you in a fresh, new style...

Background Information
- In "Shinsei Shinsei" (新生新星) the sei are two different kanji but are pronounced the same way; the title translates into "New Life, New Star."
- The publication was released with three different covers for three different types of distribution: A standard cover for bookstores and online booksellers, a Limited Edition for Diamond Comics distributors (comic and anime/manga shops, primarily), and a second Limited Edition strictly for distribution at Creation Entertainment events and their online store.
- According to Tokyopop's page for the book, there are (currently inactive) links for a second and THIRD volume. Presumably, one of these will be the earlier-planned TNG volume of stories.
- In addition to the five manga stories, the volume includes a preview short story titled First, Do No Harm, written by Dayton Ward and Kevin Dilmore, from the Pocket Books compilation volume Constellations.
