I've seen many people compare Lorca to Kirk. I don't see it. If anything, Lorca is channeling Archer in season three.
Think about it: *Single mindedness to the point of being a danger to ship and crew.
*Aversion/Ignorance to Authority.
*Captured and Tortured: Precedes to still take the Captain's chair without getting emotional and psychological help (see fact one.)
*Doesn't play nice with people who oppose him (on his side).
*Will do ANYTHING to stay in the Captain's chair.
*Basically tells Vulcans to "Suck It!"
*Thinks he can do whatever he wants because he and his ship are important to the Admiralty.
I see very few of these traits in Kirk. (Although, admittedly Kirk is my least favorite Captain and therefore my lack of knowledge of Kirk could be showing.)
((Also, i'm leaving Sisko and Janeway out of this because I haven't seen their entire series'. Picard has barely one of these traits in common, though he was never really at war.))
EDIT: Ahaha. Change a few of these terms and circumstances, and I've just described season three Coulson.
