Kincaid Timelines

Ensign Harry Kim as Buster Kincaid.

Ace Reporter Buster Kincaid was a fictional character from the 20th century Earth science fiction series The Adventures of Captain Proton. He served as Captain Proton's sidekick.

Fictional biography[]

Eternal speaker of the obvious, he would appear to have nothing better to do in life than follow Captain Proton around. (Captain Proton: Defender of the Earth short story: "Children of the Glass")

During various ordeals, he faced the Den of Crocodiles as well as ship crashes, volcanoes, and alien invasions. He had strength, integrity, and cunning. (CCG set: Decipher CCG, card: "Buster Kincaid")

While exploring the Red Mountain planet, our heroes were captured by the Lost Race. Kincaid managed to escape back to Captain Proton's rocket ship, but Proton and his secretary Constance Goodheart were trapped for two days in the Pit That Time Forgot. (ST - Captain Proton: Defender of the Earth short story: "The Forgotten and Lost Race")

Doctor Chaotica captured Kincaid and Captain Proton in the Soltair system. Eventually they escaped and caused heavy damage to Chaotica's ship. (VOY - Strange New Worlds V short story: "The Difficulties of Being Evil")

With a mind-control ray, Chaotica took control of Kincaid and commanded him to kill Proton. To try to snap him out of it, Proton reminded him of the time they rescued Goodheart from an ice dragon, and the time they almost got cooked for dinner by Arkenians. At the time, Kincaid quipped, "Sorry Chief, we won't be serving you tonight". Proton admitted that Kincaid was his best friend, and that snapped him out of it. Later, while sneaking into the Fortress of Doom on Planet X to rescue Constance, Kincaid's hand was burned by venom spat out by Lizard People guards. (VOY - Explorer short story: "Kill Captain Proton!")

Later, Chaotica tried to kill Kincaid with a mind melding machine. An ancient artifact on Mercury once compelled Goodheart to try to kill Kincaid. He seemed to have been killed by Chaotica's mind melding machine. He also time traveled to prevent alterations in history to the founding of the Incorporated Planets. He also was once trapped with Goodheart aboard their damaged spacecraft in orbit of Pluto with failing life support. (VOY video game: Elite Force)

Chaotica captured Proton's ship, Kincaid, and Goodheart, but Proton arrived to save the day. (VOY episode: "Night")

Alternate timelines[]

In an alternate timeline, Kincaid as portrayed by Harry Kim was pulled into the temporal anomaly crisis. Kincaid was skilled in the fields of engineering, security, and science. Among the equipment he brought to bear in away team missions were his jumpsuit, ray gun, flux coupler, submicron scanner, a gravitic caliper, quantum chronometer, and a star chart. (ST video game: Timelines)

History and specifics[]

In the 1938 radio adaptation, Buster Kincaid was played by Raymond Hayashi. (DS9 short story: "Captain Proton and the Orb of Bajor")

In the Captain Proton holonovels devised by Lieutenant Tom Paris aboard the USS Voyager in 2375, the role of Buster Kincaid was played by Ensign Harry Kim. (VOY episodes: "Night", "Thirty Days", "Bride of Chaotica")

In 2376, Paris and Kim had planned to roleplay a Captain Proton adventure involving Queen Arachnia, but Paris was too preoccupied with repairing the shuttle Alice to participate. (VOY episode: "Alice")
