It was so good, I am sad to have finished it.

Are there any canon DS9 comics, books, etc. that continue where it left off?

I've finished TOS and TNG, but neither left me with a feeling of sadness like DS9 has.

The original idea for the premise, quite certain. The original version is a bit of a stretch.

There was a court case over this. The court found that it wasn’t true that DS9 was based on Stryczynski’s pitch.

I was at a con in the early 90s shortly after DS9 had its first season. Rick Sternbach came out. He did an entire slide show of all the production design evidence they’d submitted to the court. They’d working on developing models for a space station for a show for a long time before. He had huge numbers of drawings. The big thing was the decision to switch from a Federation built mushroom shaped station to an alien design.
