H.P. Lovecraft stories.

Auditioned for the role of Commander Riker on
Star Trek: The Next Generation. Although he didn't get the part,
Jonathan Frakes, who did get the part, remembered Combs when directing an episode of
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and cast him in a guest role in that episode. The producers liked his performance so much he was later cast in two different recurring roles on the show.

Named "the first Lovecraftian actor" by fans of writer
H.P. Lovecraft, for his frequent appearances in movies based on Lovecraft's writings (including a portrayal of Lovecraft himself, in
Necronomicon: Book of Dead) and also for his involvement in other "HPL projects".

Out of all the Star Trek characters he has played, Weyoun (the officious Vorta ambassador for the Dominion) is his personal favorite.

Along with
Vaughn Armstrong, he is one of only two actors to play three different characters in a single "Star Trek" season (
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Season Six.)

Brian Markinson, he is one of only two actors to play two different, completely unrelated characters in a single episode of "Star Trek". He played Weyoun and Liquidator Brunt in the

John de Lancie and
Marc Alaimo, he is one of only four actors to appear in ten different seasons of "Star Trek" (

Randy Oglesby and

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Penk in

Matt Winston, he is one of only three actors, besides the regulars to appear in all four seasons of
Star Trek: Enterprise.

In the episode of _"4400, The"_ (2004) entitled "Wake Up Call", he hands a character a book by
H.P. Lovecraft called "At the Mountains of Madness". Combs is well known for playing various roles in Lovecraftian movies.

Is the only actor to appear in both of the last new "Star Trek" episodes to air before the deaths of
