It was so good, I am sad to have finished it.
Are there any canon DS9 comics, books, etc. that continue where it left off?
I've finished TOS and TNG, but neither left me with a feeling of sadness like DS9 has.
Try the Orville. It's a bit more humorous but VERY much in the star trek spirit, more than modern Trek does anyway
Kind of funny info: The Orville is what got me into Star Trek; back in 2017, I was very eager as a Seth MacFarlane fan for the new show. After the season 3 delay (Covid-19, Fox 'cancelling it' and moving it to Hulu, etc., while waiting, I started watching Star Trek, starting with TOS and then TNG and this year, DS9.
There are Orville comics that are canon, and a book written by Seth MacFarlane that is also canon :)
I feel like Seth MacFarlane would totally approve of this. The Orville was basically a love letter to 90's trek so I think it's really cool people have used it as a entry way into Trek.
