I see they've got a LiS style jet pack.

Yeah, it's always kind of embarrassing that the Jupiter II crew were better equipped than the Federation Landing Parties.

Back in the late 70s, having watched "Ark II" which used the famous Bell Labs peroxide powered rocket pack inspired me to doodle a Trek based scene. I depicted a shuttle upon a barren landscape. In the air was Kirk and Spock using flying packs...except the thrust components looked like miniature warp nacelles. No logical reason the elements should look like that. As a kid I just thought it looked cool.
Sincerely,
Bill

Would love to see that, Bill!
I think we were spoiled by Jetpacks on TV when we were kids.
Even Gilligan's Island had a Jetpack episode.
I think that's one of the reasons I think the Animated Star Trek is my favorite Star Trek series: They could do just about anything the animators could imagine. Weird Aliens, weird monsters, weird and wild stuff! They certainly could have put Kirk & Spock in jetpacks if they wanted to.
But, it's like one of the reasons I do my own comic strip: There's no one out there doing a story quite like the way I want, so I have to draw Star Trek with jetpacks myself.
I think the only reason Jenny doesn't have a jetpack is it would be tough on the fur.

For a moment, I thought Sam Starfall was diving.

I know Sam Starfall is descended from squids... But, I seem to remember that he can't swim...?
Not sure on that. It's been a while since that came up.
