JEFFREY COMBS
First Honorary Member
of the Klingon Assault Group


Qapla' to actor JEFFREY COMBS for being the first Star Trek actor to become an Honorary Member of the Klingon Assault Group. His certificate of membership was presented at ConCarolinas' Opening Ceremonies on June 1, 2012. There were about a dozen armored KAG members present for the event. It was glorious and he was very appreciative of the honor.

==========================

Mr. Combs has the distinction of playing 9 characters in Star Trek along with many other notable roles, including Dr. Herbert West in the cult classic, Re-Animator, and crazed FBI agent Milton Dammers in The Frighteners.

His roles in the Star Trek franchise are as follows:

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (he played various characters in 31 episodes)

In "Meridion" he played Tiron, the alien who made unwelcome advances on Kira, forcing Quark to make a holo-suite program featuring her.

In "Family Business," "Bar Association," "Body Parts," and "Ferengi Love Songs" he played the Ferengi liquidator Brunt.

He played the cloned Vorta diplomat Weyoun who served the Dominion through 8 incarnations of himself (we saw versions 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8) in numerous episodes of DS9.

He also played a human plains-clothes cop Kevin Mulkahey; the Mirror Universe Brunt; and finally a human holosuite guest -- along with many other unmasked Star Trek actors -- at the DS9 farewell party in the series finale "What You Leave Behind."

Star Trek: Voyager (one episode)

He played Penk, the producer of a bloodsport program using kidnapped aliens (including Seven of Nine and the Rock).

Enterprise (11 episodes)

He played Krem the picked-on Ferengi pirate in "Aquisition."

He also played Shran the Andorian commander in 10 episodes, including the series finale "These Are The Voyages."

==========================

Please greet Jeffrey as a Brother Warrior when you see him at conventions, and do not forget to get an autograph from him!

Qapla'!
