Combs is one of the few Star Trek actors who not only appears in more than one series, but also played different roles in the same series. So he plays the Vorta called Weyoun and the Ferengi Brunt in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine . As a result, he could be seen in both roles at the end of the series in the episode In the Troubles of War . However, he already played the dealer Tiron in his first Star Trek role and was seen in the role of Mulkahey as a person and thus without a mask. He was also seen in a Star Trek: Spaceship Voyager episode as the Norcadian Penk . In Star Trek: Enterprise , he played the Andorian Commander Shran and the Ferengi space pirate Krem in a solo appearance. In Babylon 5 he plays a psi agent in episode 16 of the first season.

Combs appeared in the television series 4400 - The Returners in 15 episodes in the role of Kevin Burkhoff . He also played Edgar Allan Poe in the Masters of Horror episode "The Black Cat".

Combs played the sole role in the "one-man" play "Nevermore ... an Evening with Edgar Allan Poe" at The Steve Allen Theater in Hollywood, California .
