You’re trying to make a problem where none exists.
Again, I'm only trying to figure out what you meant when you said:
And even then, there wasn’t much gayness to his acting.
Because it sounds pretty ignorant.
I'm not looking for a confrontation, I just want to know what "gayness in acting" means, and why it is apparently a problem.
Having a character that’s just a normal character who happens to be gay, without making a big deal about it or using it as a plot point, is rare.
I don't know if that's as true even in 2016 when the movie came out, as it once was.
Sure, but that doesn't mean they were exclusively heterosexual.
Why would the character be a stereotype?
Why would anyone think he would be?
And even then, there wasn’t much gayness to his acting.
Care to elaborate?
Yeah, I think "The Void" is probably a top ten VOY episode for me because of how it shows Janeway's inclination towards coalition building being successful. That is a quality I like in a Starfleet captain, but too often in VOY, the plot is about how Janeway and Co. get betrayed by someone they had entered into an agreement with.
The uniform here is interesting, because the comic takes place after DS9, but before "Nemesis", around 2377. Other than the crews of the Theseus, and Defiant, characters wear the "First Contact" uniforms, yet Shaw and the other Starfleets we see on this cover are wearing the early DS9/VOY uniforms.
Obviously there could be some time travel shenanigans, which would place this in 2373 at the latest. Shaw was an ensign during the Battle of Wolf 359 in 2366, and on this cover we see him rocking commander pips, so he would have progressed up the ranks in about seven years. Obviously a thing that can happen in Trek, as we've seen, but somewhere in the Delta Quadrant Harry Kim just punched a bulkhead and has no idea why.
Truly we have no punishment to fit their crime.
I enjoyed this when it first came out on mobile, but not enough to keep paying for the apple arcade, or whatever. Plus, I don't think any other app I've ever used has come close to causing my phone to heat up like this one did.
But I can definitely see picking it up on steam to play mindlessly while I'm listening to a podcast or whatever.
