Star Trek: 10 Reasons Wesley Crusher Needs His Own Spin-Off Series
4. Man For All Seasons
In the figurative, and beyond the innate 'genius,' Wesley was (or is) a multitalented, multifaceted individual, not one, albeit sometimes with a little nudging, to renege on his principles — a "heck of a good [Starfleet officer]" before his travelling days, in Admiral Janeway's words. In double the more literal sense, Wesley can now (presumably) be anywhere, any when he likes, whichever the season — be that 'of the year' or 'of the show'.
Kore, you stay, but sashay away from 2024 by transporter beam. We've yet to have a follow-up to that briefest of scenes from Farewell featuring Wesley and the Adam Soong-made clone. If we go by Wil Wheaton's own story, A Matter of Choice, in the Star Trek #400 comic, a check-in with the pair should be extra imperative, too. Kore is, in fact, Wesley's eventual, universe-stabilising, replacement.
We've seen him in the 21st, we've seen him (back) in the 24th (twice), and we might have hoped he would pop up in the 32nd century in the meantime, though there's still a chance of that if he dares go back to the Academy. Much like Wheaton himself, Wesley is a throughline for the franchise, linking time and dimensions, filling in the centuries of gaps. Even one season with him could be all the series combined.
