I really don't think we're likely to get novels continuing the series, given how few Star Trek novels are being published these days. But if they happened I would buy all of them, and every comic IDW might decide to publish.
Should there be a comic or novel continuation of Starfleet Academy?
If there isn't any licensed content that can carry on the story as intended the headcanon will do it. My brain is not capable of just accepting unresolved cliffhangers or really any story threads without filling in the blanks and coming up with myself.
There are going to be so many questions after season 2 ends. Will everyone survive? Will everyone graduate? Not to mention whatever storylines season 2 sets up.
It's take quite a few books or comics to finish the story and if they did I would want people from the show involved with it. I've really disliked what the current teams running the comics have come up with so wouldn't want them to have a lot of creative control and would like to see as close to what the planned seasons 3 and 4 would have been.

I think comics are the best way for them to go. I don't know if there is enough widespread interest in novels, but maybe a comic miniseries here or there, or even a more ambitious Season 3 series that would allow the creators to finish the story, like how there have been more Buffy, Angel, Smallville, Batman '66 and Wonder Woman '77 comics. There's even a Greatest American Hero comic now, which takes place after that series.
well to me in my opinion it is most likely that they alrighty started the off screen versions aka the comics and the novels when the show came out
I'm not sure they would be comics would be a big sell. Maybe a novel but it would have to be crossed over into other ST Franchises. I don't think SFA would really sell well on its own at this point. But who knows. Maybe novelists will do a better job with the characters than the script writers did.
I'd get a kick out of YA novels in the style of the 90's Starfleet Academy ones.
Alone in an empty duplicate of the Athena?
I would hope it would be more than that. Those scenes would only be a sliver of the life they lived.

I'm picturing a novel where she teams up with Guinan and Pelia and Flint and Morgan Primus and all the other long lived ancients.
I could see Pelia being the Yoda to Ake's Luke, convincing her to join Starfleet.
Wasn't it a case of them ordering S2 before the show even dropped? (honest question, I wasn't following this kind of thing)
They should bring back Short Treks for this and other stories.
I liked SA well enough (nowhere near as "90210" as most thought it would be), but haven't bought ST novels for a lotta years and comics even longer ago.

Yeah, but the article’s from back in January, talking about the current limited series. A continuation after the show concludes would be something else.
They did. But, at 40,000 viewers for season one, it would make more sense to just bury season two for the tax write off.
