FollowingCountdown, Johnson would go on to write many moreStar Trekstories, including (but not limited to)Star Trek- Khan,Star Trek- Starfleet Academy,Star Trek- Nero, the crossoverStar Trek/Green Lantern, and both of IDW's ongoingStar Trekseries, the most recent beingBoldly Gowith artist Tony Shasteen.
