Star Trek Explorer is an authorized periodical, published quarterly by Titan UK in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand devoted to the Star Trek franchise; a separate North American version is also published, differing primarily in issue number, but otherwise synchronised in content.
Early in its run, the magazine featured reprints of several DC Comics-produced comics, but this ended after issue 22.
Before this change, various issues were special "bumper" releases (100 pages, costing £4.99, usually with a gift – typically a Titan-released Trek book) to commemorate a specific occasion, such as the 30th and 35th anniversaries, the end of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, and others.
A special cover is available for specialist comic shops ordering via the Diamond Previews magazine.
With the latest change to its publication schedule, the magazine has now returned to regularly being 100 pages in length.
