Initially released monthly, the magazine went to a fortnightly release schedule with issue 5, before returning to monthly releases from issue 77 onward. For a time, the magazine advertised itself as "Britain's ONLY official "Star Trek" magazine", following the end of the Marvel UK Star Trek: The Next Generation magazine. Strictly speaking, this was true – although Trident Comics' Star Trek and The Next Generation were being released at the time, they were comics rather than magazines.
