Star Trek/Legion of Super-Heroes
While an Imperial Planets fleet bombards Durla, forcing the shapeshifting species into submission, a team of young adventurers from the 30th-century is returning home in a time bubble, and the Enterprise is recalled to Earth. The time bubble is caught in a vortex and must make an emergency landing. Kirk and his crew beam down to San Francisco. Cosmic Boy, Saturn Girl, Shadow Lass, Chameleon Boy, Braniac 5 and Lightning Lad find themselves on 23rd-century Earth, but it's not their Earth. Kirk, Spock, McCoy, Uhura, Sulu and Chekov find themselves on 23rd-century Earth too, and it's not their Earth either. The humans living on the heart of the Imperial Planets are the most rapacious and power-hungry sentients in recorded history.

Star Trek/Legion of Super-Heroes
Solicitation: STAR TREK/LEGION OF SUPERHEROES tells the tale of the original crew of the Starship Enterprise, who beam down to a planet only to discover that the planet isn't their intended destination, or even in the right universe. At the same time, a group of Great Darkness Saga Legionnaires inside a time sphere find themselves cast into the 23rd century, but it's not the 23rd century as they know it, either. STAR TREK/LEGION OF SUPERHEROES is a galaxy-spanning adventure that draws both teams together to face a menace that includes Khunds, Klingons, Borg, and other threats that aren't quite as they should be. The egalitarian United Planets in one universe and a United Federation of Planets in another is now the Imperial Planets of Terra, a dark empire focused on war and conquest, and that's just the beginning for this special series.

In the present, a team led by Kirk and Lightning Lad find their opportunity to sneak into the Emperor's palace, with time for Kirk to hit on Shadow Lass.

Trapped in the present, in the heart of the Imperial palace and imprisoned in the past, in a wood and stone village, Starfleet officers and Legionnaires look for a way out of their predicament while they recap the history of the immortal known as Flint and Vandal Savage. No one understands how this version of the immortal became the undying lord and ruler of the Imperial Planets. In the present, the Emperor informs his time traveling captives that their intelligence on how history might have transpired will help prevent the mistakes made on other Earths. In the past, the source of the Emperor’s control over time is also a prisoner; and he’s peeved.

Star Trek/Legion of Super-Heroes
In the present, the Emperor introduces his Starfleet and Legion guests to the tender mercies of the agony booth to learn where their colleagues have traveled in time. In the distant past, the other Starfleet/Legion team must free an all-powerful and somewhat sarcastic being from his prison, while under attack by cavemen and their savage beasts. Kirk stalls for time by getting under the Emperor's skin, while Brainiac 5 and Spock deduce how to release the prisoner. And the timeline is repaired. Flint, now an old man who passes the time painting, receives a visit from an ancient adversary, and has a quiet chat.
