The only other one who comes close is Admiral Bork who [[DirtyCoward: attacks Tempest under the auspices of a truce]], so he doesn't count.

* ShaggyDogStory: A major one for the [[spoiler: gothamites. They travelled the stars for thirty years, searching for a planet to settle on, because their home world had been swallowed up by a black hole. They run out of fuel and must invade Earth. Their forces are obliterated and are facing total defeat and extinction. And then TheDragon finds out that it was all pointless - everyone aside from military personnel had died in cryogenic stasis because Zaitel's spaceship had major design flaws. He tries to slingshot away, but only ends up plunging into the sun.]]
** Grogan was having marriage problems and badly needed to take some leave to resolve them. However, the only way he could do that was if Noah cancelled his leave. Noah was using his leave to visit his seriously ill wife. Noah cancelled his leave and returned to work, as he thought his wife was on the road to recovery, allowing Grogan to fix his relationship. Unfortunately, Noah's wife dies while he is away, and Grogan's marriage breaks down anyway.

Shown briefly on American TV in 1985 as ''Thundersub'', the show has faded into obscurity. It just never caught on as ''StarBlazers'' did.
