Thanks for all of the feedback everyone.
I've seen a very clear theme here, people want to see more of the Captain, in some form or another. It won't be for a little while, the next few updates I want to go back to the side stories that haven't been touched in a while, but I think I've come up with a plan that will allow for more content with him without retconning or cheapening his death, involving another of the characters you met recently...
I want to thank you all for replying and giving me this feedback, I know I don't always respond, but I do take it on board, and your opinions and ideas really help me to refine what I'm doing and encourages me to improve it.
Thanks again, I hope I can continue delivering enjoyable content.
