Since we're set in the Star Trek 2009 (Kelvin) timeline, there's a little canon flexibility. Part of that is the uniforms. So, engineering is red, admiralty is red with gold, and captains (and command) are gold. Medical and science remain blue. This also means we still get to have security redshirts, too (instead of the cannon fodder gold shirts of TNG)! Woo hoo!
As to the uniforms worn by Colonel Hank Reynolds and team, well... you'll just have to wait and see what that was about.
Comments from the tagboard:

Brogen: Miles: Nice catch! We are using the typical Starfleet Naval Ranks (as you'll see in the current comic and ones coming up). However, there's something a bit different about Colonel Reynolds' ship and crew.

Miles: Just found the comic, I find it interesting that we're going by Airforce-ish? ranks (which if current Spaceforce is anything to go by will be accurate) rather than Naval ranks, which have traditionally been Starfleet ranks in the TV series. Just commenting, as my dad was a Petty Officer First Class, whereas I was a First Lieutenant (Logistic
Readiness Officer) in the USAF, which has ranks like Colonel.

Swiftbow: Just to let you all know... we made a couple fairly minor dialog edits to Episode 9. You may want to refresh!

I'm sorry, I think I need a projector or something. Or a technician?
Are you a technician?
