What do you call Jeffrey Combs standing around by himself?

"A Star Trek convention"

Inspired by a comment thread with @Powderhorn@beehaw.org

Not just Star Trek, I feel like he’s just a sci-fi/horror con In general, that dude has done everything and a lot of it at iconic levels.

Absolutely a horror legend outside of Star Trek. The Re-Animator trilogy , The Frighteners, Doctor Mordrid, Trancers, I Still Know What You Did Last Summer. He's been in a lot of really successful/cult horror movies, has avoided any metoo/political missteps and is pretty well beloved by fans.

You could have a con just cornering him and getting him to sign merch from all his work.

Truly the man, the legend, the one man show and the franchise is lucky to have him

Picture hasn't been updated since Lower Decks, it's missing Agimus.

The other 7 or so Weyouns: Are we a joke to you?

[–] SteleTrovilo@beehaw.org 4 points 1 day ago

Excellent. To be 100% accurate, the image would need a lot more Weyouns.

Omg I never realized he is Agimus! It's so obvious now. Love him a Weyoon or however you spell it. Great villain

I know þe Combs phenomenon, but could someone explain why? Why is he so frequently cast? I þought it might be because he's an incredibly versatile actor, but why, þen, isn't he more successful outside of þe franchise?
