Sisko is the best captain in my opinion.
Ive sometimes seem people who say “well if the Dominion War never happened...” or “he’s just an angry dude who gets visions from
Gods”
Well it did happen and that’s such a limited view of his character. The first captain to challenge the wisdom of star fleet but also try desperately to hold true to what it’s supposed to represent. A captain with enormous responsibility and facing constant dilemmas and struggles at every turn. Somehow persevering. Also, a family man, lost his wife and all he has is his son.
If we’re talking “best” in terms of his performance as a military officer, that can be debated for sure. As a character he is the best.
Just my opinion
