Are there any other Kirby fans on here who are also fans of Star Trek? I know of a couple people already, but I’m trying to see if there’s anyone else. I personally see a lot of parallels between Kirby and Star Trek, and some of my Kirby fanart is Star Trek-inspired, so that’s why I’m asking.

#text post #Kirby #just asking because when I eventually get around to drawing my Susie redemption arc comic #it’s going to have a lot of Star Trek references in it and I want to make sure people understand them lmao #also I see a lot of parallels between Kirby and Star Trek in general #I think the biggest one is the parallel between what the Borg do to Captain Picard and what Susie does to Meta Knight #context for Kirby fans who do not watch Star Trek: the Borg are a collective of cybernetic organisms #they assimilate other organisms into their collective against their will to gain those organisms’ knowledge and abilities #in The Next Generation they assimilate Captain Picard and use him and his knowledge to attack Starfleet/the Federation #it’s basically what Susie does when she mechanizes Meta Knight and turns him against Kirby #the episode of the anime where Dedede gets the Scarfies as pets also reminds me of the Tribble episode from Star Trek: The Original Series #another big parallel between Star Trek and Kirby is that both franchises have a mirror universe with evil versions of the characters #also Magolor as a character reminds me a lot of Quark from Deep Space Nine not sure if anyone else sees it lmao #anyway if there are other Kirby fans out there who like Star Trek what’s your favorite show from the franchise?#my personal favorite is Voyager but I also really like Deep Space Nine too I’m rewatching it right now with a friend #I’ve seen all the shows and some are definitely better than others but they each bring something new and interesting to the franchise #I wouldn’t say that there are any shows in the franchise that I hate or think are awful #it’s kind of like Kirby too in that just as there are no bad Kirby games there are no bad Star Trek shows lmao at least in my opinion #there are some shows that are weaker than others or have some annoying features but I wouldn’t say they’re bad
