Background information[]

The primary cover images for each issue form a vertical polyptych.
Each issue contains a backup story, with art by J.K. Woodward, detailing how the mirror counterparts were able to cross from their universe.
In explaining the series' concept, writer Scott Tipton noted: "The one thing that's never been done in Star Trek's Mirror Universe tales is an all-out clash between universes! The opportunity to set Picard against Picard was just too exciting to resist!", [1] although this had previously been done with the Star Trek: The Original Series crew in The Mirror Universe Saga and the Next Generation crew in the Pocket TNG novel Dark Mirror.
