said by Snakeoil:I read an omnibus decades ago about Star Wolves.
Different but in a sense overlapping.
David Gerrold (the Tribble guy) wrote about a ship called the "Star Wolf" which was a much darker and gritter portrayal of Star Trek's USS Enterprise.
(He really manages to stick it to Gene Roddenberry's much hated lawyer, turning the lawyer into the personality of a sadistic ship's computer).
In the "Star Wolf" stories, one of the main antagonists are the Morthans who are genetically modified humans with great strength.
A similar race are the Nietzscheans from Roddenberry's "Andromeda" TV series....
Lots of borrowing back and forth, just as with late night TV or with Microsoft, Xerox, and Apple.
