"Day of Blood," Chapter Four. Thousands of years ago, Kahless the Unforgettable led his people to glory and raised an empire of honor. But his clone, Kahless II, has gone too far, murdering innocents in cold blood and hungering for power that can no longer be sated by Qo'noS and the Klingon people. He now stands alongside Alexander in front of Worf and Sisko, pitting father and son against each other and making a mockery of the Bajoran Prophets and their emissary. Meanwhile, the power of the Orb of Destruction surges from his ship above. Can Kahless be stopped, or will he once again prove to be the greatest warrior of them all? Find out in the penultimate chapter of the crossover between Star Trek and Star Trek: Defiant!
I enjoyed this issue quite a bit, as we finally get a bit of actual story momentum, especially between Worf and Alexander. Sisco being side lined for the issue so we can get the big final confrontation between him and Kahless in the last issue of the crossover didn't work that well though, and I feel like we're supposed to care more about captain Meyerson, despite the fact that he's been in like two issues, one of which being the FCBD issue which was barely marketed.
Still, on the whole, between the Worf/Alexander fight, and the Defiant and Theseus crews working together across the two ships, this mostly worked for me.
