At best, you might have gotten away with Captain Jonathan "Spin" Ward.

His android assistant, Cynthia, and Aslan security officer, Claude.

I reference to Condottiere's post above, both the TV-Show and Movie, "The Wild Wild West", took place in the Old West, and the main character was named "James West".

Just because it's been done doesn't make it a good idea.

Default Black Lagoon
The Plot looks like a ripoff of the anima Black Lagoon. In that series, a Japanese salary man broker is sent to make a payoff to a pirate transport company using a modified PT boat. His boss actually send him because he can be killed without harming the company. When he finds out, he joins the pirate company.
It is one of the best anima I have seen in a while.

Does the pirate group prey particularly on the original company he belonged to?

Are these the classic pirates of thuggery, thievery, slavery, salvage, traaryyyyzure, murder and mayhem?

Or is it tale of revenge and comeuppance against the Company?

They're mercenaries.

I'd imagine it's what A New Hope would have been, if Lucas had a more jaundiced view of society, and was Japanese.

So the mans betrayal by his company was enough to replace his moral core and join this band of cutthroats?
