Starship Trekkers is a satirical comic strip appearing in Star Trek Magazine. The strip features "The Worst Crew in Starfleet!", the crew of the USS Armitage, and presents stories in a comedic fashion. The characters and settings are original but are loosely based on existing ones from the Star Trek universe.
Setting
While the series clearly takes place in the 24th Century, its exact timeline placement is unclear. Most of the characters wear TNG uniforms, implying that this may take place during the run of that series or shortly thereafter. Ensign Bunsen, however, appears to have a Star Trek: First Contact-era uniform, inexplicably.
The first comic clearly sets the story long after the events of Encounter at Farpoint, with a rebuilt Farpoint Station. Besides that, few clues have been given in the series.
