      Season 2 of Star Trek Prodigy has occasional interactions with Jellico (with Ronnie Cox voicing it even!). Each time he’s on screen, I think of these comics. In fact, use of ST-Prodigy screenshots would give us Jellico and Janeway interaction, which could be awesome fodder for new comics.

          I had to go looking this up and found references to your comment source

          The actor also mentioned memes made about Captain Jellico being a factor in his return to Star Trek: Prodigy, which should be a delight for Trek fans like @STDeltaShift, who has made quite a few popular Jellico memes on the web. It turns out Ronny Cox is aware of the sheer number of Jellico memes out there and apparently is very much in on the bad joke/pun format, given his response when I confirmed the memes played a role in his return: "Yeah, that’s sort of right in my wheelhouse of humor anyway. I said to somebody else earlier that I like PUNishing people. "

          I had no idea these comics were as old as Dec 2022!

        He was in season 1, too, expressly forbidding Janeway from doing what she was planning. Never change, Jellico.
