For this interlude before Season 2, I've picked one of my favourite panels from each episode of Season 1. Placed right next to each other like this, it charts an interesting story of evolution in my (still developing) drawing skill and style.
Next week: Season 2 begins!

Planet of Hats Season 1 Recap
2
McCoy: I'll teach you to impersonate my dead ex-girlfriend, you salt sucker!
SFX: ZAP!
3
Kirk: By wrestling without shirts!
4
Kirk: How do we stop a petulant human who's been granted godlike powers?! It's not like we have to deal with this every week!
5
Joe: Wllaaaahh!!
SFX: Stab! Stab! {Joe stabs himself with a kitchen knife}
Sulu: Medics!
Riley: Joe!

Extra Hammy Kirk: I'm Captain Kirk! I'm Captain Kirk!
SFX: Neck pinch!
7
Eve: I'm beautiful again.
Kirk: It was a placebo! Your own self-confidence makes you beautiful.
Spock: And does your make-up and styles your hair.
8
Kirk: If I have to seduce an android to escape, so be it.
Andrea: I am not programmed for love.
Caption: But Kirk seduces her anyway!
9
McCoy: Quarantine conditions! Beam down a medi-lab! I'm gonna cook us up some anty-dote!
McCoy: Boo-yah!
10
Kirk: Let's see if this... thingy erases memories. Use it on me.
Dr Noel: I... just did, Captain.
Kirk: Well that's not very conclusive.
Dr Noel: Four times.
Kirk: Try it again.
11
Spock: We cannot break free. We are outplayed. Checkmate.
Kirk: Not chess... poker! Booya! I'm back in the game!
12
Spock: This is 13 years ago. We picked up a distress call from Talos IV.
Kirk: We don't make record tapes that old-fashioned looking. Where is this coming from?
Spock: The pilot episode, Captain.
13
Uhura: Message from Starbase 11. Since Spock assaulted people, sabotaged the ship, and put the entire human race at risk of being turned into mindless slaves just to be nice to Captain Pike, no disciplinary action is to be taken.
Spock: Boo-yah, I believe is the appropriate expression.
14
Kirk: My wits are torn between these two desires!
Gain vengeance for my friend and bear his cross,
or charm Lenore and quench my loins' hot fires?
But soft, a notion: ¿Por qué no los dos?
15
Kirk: Our orders are clear and absolutely 100% rock-solid inviolable. We must not enter the Neutral Zone under any circumstance at all. No way, no how, whatsoever.
Sulu: Sir! A ship fleeing into the Neutral Zone!
Kirk: After them! Into the Zone!
16
Spock: Enjoy yourself, captain?
Kirk: Immensely. A fist fight in which I ripped my shirt more than ever before!
17
Spock: Latimer, Gaetano, stand guard outside while Mr Scott repairs the shuttle.
Latimer: Guard against what?
Spock: The humanoid aliens who almost certainly inhabit this planet. Have you not taken basic space biology?
18
Trelane: I shall abduct some of the more attractive members of your crew. And Mr Spock.
Trelane: Shall we dance?
Spock: I did not bring my dancing shoes.
19
Gorn: RAAARRRHH!!!
Kirk: Not fair! Your shirt is pre-ripped!

Spock: We must return him. His yet-to-be-born son commands the first Saturn mission.
Kirk: Okay, we return him.
Spock: We can't return him. He knows too much about the future.
Kirk: You should be solving problems, Spock! What do we pay you for?
Major Nelson: Son?
21
McCoy: Jim's about to lose his career and you're playing chess?!
Spock: I just beat the computer five times in a row.
McCoy: So?!
Spock: I'm on a streak, I can't stop now.
22
Kirk: Well, we've destroyed the thing keeping your society from self-destructing. Good luck, see you round!
Marplon: Buh...
23
Caption: Fist fight in Engineering!
SFX: Punch!
24
Kirk: Now call up Vendikar and negotiate peace.
Spock: There's a chance it may work, Captain.
Kirk: Thank you, Spock.
Spock: On the other hand, you may have just doomed two entire planetary civilisations.
Kirk: You win some, you lose some.
25
Leila: Smell this pretty flower, Mr Spock.
Flower: puff!
Spock: Leila! I love you!
26
Spock: Pain! Pain! Pain!
Spock: Millions of children!
Spock: To raise and put through college! Unbearable pain!
27
Ayelborne: You and the Klingons will be friends in the future.
Kirk: I doubt it.
Ayelborne: And the next Enterprise captain will be bald and drink Earl Grey tea.
Kirk: Now I know you're joking.
28
Caption: McCoy turns his back and...
Masters: Fire in Engineering! Someone opened an unsecured panel and moved a jumper connector!
{Lazarus stealing dilithium behind Masters's back}
SFX: sneak
SFX: steal
29
Spock: Edith Keeler is the pivot point. She must die here in 1930. If she lives, the Nazis win World War II.
Kirk: That seems unlikely...
Spock: It's the First Law of Time Travel.
Kirk: Which is?
Spock: Time travel: ergo, Hitler.
Tricorder: Sieg Heil! Sieg Heil!

Scotty: Bathing the planet in intense UV has cured everyone.
Spock: And my Vulcan physiology miraculously cured my blindness.
Kirk: All's well that ends well!
McCoy: Except your brother and his wife are dead.
Caption: And within 5 years everyone on Deneva develops melanoma...
