Gates McFadden is returning to the iconic character Dr. Beverly Crusher. Variety has learned exclusively that McFadden is penning the limited comic series “Star Trek: Crusher” with IDW Publishing.

The comic, which also hails from artist Megan Levens and colorist Charlie Kirchoff, is set to debut in summer 2027. It marks McFadden’s comic book writing debut. The series will bridge the gap in the character’s history between the end of the movie “Star Trek: Nemesis” and the Season 3 of the Paramount+ series “Star Trek: Picard.”
