What do you get when you cross Star Trek with G.I. Joe, Xena\\nWarrior Princess, and ancient Japanese culture? Easy. You get\\nWildStorm\'s four-part comic series The Killing Shadows. Published\\nbetween November 2000 and February 2001, The Killing Shadows is a\\nstory about a mysterious alien invasion force, free will, and\\nfighting. But mostly fighting. It was the second and final\\ndedicated TNG comic series published by WildStorm, and features the\\nreturn of an unlikely ally.
