I’m impressed by how the ladies’ hair is staying put in zero-G. The 24th century has clearly brought great advances in hair products.

Bashir is already in the ‘almost a spy’ game in the 2nd episode, when he sits in that dressing room and listens to the Duras sisters sell out the Kohn-Ma. The whole womanizer spy out of James Bond seems Riker-ish…

Hearing Troi say “Hork” in my head almost made me spit out my morning cup of Tea, Earl Gray, Hot….

Well played, sir. Well played.

Riker is a puzzle, to me as much as to anyone. It’s a shame in a sense that Bashir’s whole defining characteristic as a character early in DS9 is to be sort of a charming, skirt-chasing scoundrel, because while it fits the Riker-as-ladykiller thing very well it also doesn’t offer the kind of natural weird forays into roleplay that most of the rest of the crew have had.

I may come up with something or other; I’ve got a couple half-baked ideas there, but nothing that’s really clicked for me yet. Horndog Riker is unlikely to disappear, but maybe we’ll see Will make some sort of effort at some point.

I’ve been reading this since nearly the beginning, and I have to say, it’s amazing… you’ve had me hooked. Some really, really smart choices of which characters to put in which roles. I’m lovin it. Keep up the awesome work!

…I do have one piece of feedback, though. I kinda wonder if the Riker-is-a-horny-idiot thing is getting a little played out. When every third strip has multiple panels of him making silly sex comments… he’s just too one-dimensional for the amount of screen time he gets. (I know, I know, just like the real Riker.) Seriously though, the other characters all have room to roleplay in different directions, while Riker is a one-trick pony with a really juvenile trick that is increasingly irritating every time I see it.

There is also the non-canon (for this series) example of the episode of DS9 where Sisko builds a solar sailship by bajoran designs and attempts to sail it past the denorius belt, he put in a “gravity net” because “null g makes him queasy”

Amazing. I’m six weeks late to the party but this is just incredible.
