Oh, in that case it's definitely Zapp.

"Don't ask me, you're the ones who'll be dying for it!"

I'll second Kirk - we can't have a vote on the best CO without Jim Kirk.

I'll nominate Cmdr/Capt Sisko. I've already seconded Adama but I'll divide my loyalties

For me, they're too close to call... Actually all of the candidates are too close for me to vote, except maybe Zapp Brannigan because I don't watch Futurama enoough

Since we've opened this, apparently, to any sci-fi, I have to say that I'm shocked by your omission, Sionnach. Namely, one Colonel-commissar Ibram Gaunt.

How did I completely forget 40K?
Well, I'll certainly second Gaunt.
I'll also throw in a mention for Commisar Cain. He's a good guy at heart, even if he tries to deny it.
