If you're like me, you loved the SyFy channel show Eureka that ran from 2006 to 2012. Well, the show may be off the air but its ending implied that there's still more stories to tell which is why I want Eureka to continue as a comic book for the reasons listed below.

1. It couldn't get a sixth season because a lot of the actors involved are either involved in other projects or (for those whose shows have ended like Colin Ferguson with Haven or are ending soon like Joe Morton with Scandal) it would just be too big a time jump to pick up this show all of a sudden after a 5-year hiatus

2. It's the only truly optimistic sci-fi show I've ever seen that wasn't either a superhero show or a Star Trek show (which includes The Orville) which means it should continue in some form to keep the optimism in a genre riddled by bleak and intense dystopian futures.

3. Its messages would have an easier time reaching people because e.g. you have practically thousands of TV channels and thus a very low likelihood of anyone choosing any particular show to watch that's airing (and that's even taking Netflix etc. out of the equation) whereas at a comic book store A. there's less selection to choose from, B. new releases would be given much more hype and C. people are more likely to purchase non-mainstream (as in non-DC-or-Marvel) comic books then they are to watch non-mainstream TV shows.

4. Its messages are something the world needs to hear and not just the personal "Saturday-morning-cartoon" sort of messages but the sociopolitically relevant from the many possibilities and endless wonder of scientific discovery to the importance of science for its own sake and not for the sake of killing other innocent people. In today's climate, those are messages that can inspire both young and old alike.

5. I am also hoping to bring back Warehouse 13 as an ongoing comic book series through Dynamite Entertainment and if they were both comic books published by the same publisher, they could continue to cross over like they did.

6. There are many story possibilities that could lead off from the "life-goes-on" ending the show had; from taking current scientific discoveries to the next level to delving deeper into scientific politics and all the conspiracy intrigue (despite the fact that Grant bought Eureka off the DoD) to personal subplots that never aired (like at the very least, Jo and Zane's wedding since I know we all (who shipped them) wished we could have seen that). There are also some minor characters who deserve better writing/more depth and exposure e.g. Holly, imho, needs some backstory and more depth because she's often been denigrated as being basically Fargo's Manic Pixie Dream Girl. Also, a show shouldn't tantalize us by introducing plot threads in the finale that leave us to speculate (like Grant's return and GD Director!Henry).

7. Eureka is both a very feminist and very diverse show (even though it doesn't have a canonically Jewish character and its only gay character was Word-Of-Godded gay) and comics deserve its level of diversity.

8. Another medium would offer the opportunity to expose more people to Eureka than might have seen the TV show (like they might not have seen it if they don't own a TV or were too young when it premiered)

9. As I said in reason 4, Eureka comic books could help get young people into science through the scientific concepts being covered and in today's climate, kids need to learn STEM but they need a way to want to learn STEM.

In conclusion, Eureka deserves to go on in some medium because it is so awesomely geeky and introduces young and old alike to the endless wonder of science.
