I was wondering if anyone had heard what ever happened to Kirk's nephew, Peter, from "Operation: Annihilate!"
Remember he was the son of Aurelan and George Samuel "Sam" Kirk, he survived the Denevan neural parasite, and then was transported to Starbase 10.
Did this character ever appear in a Pocket Books novel? We have the further exploits of Leonard James Akaar, Joanna McCoy, Demora Sulu, and the grandson of Lieutenant Stiles from "Balance of Terror", but I haven't seen any mention at all of Peter Kirk.
Does anyone have any information to share?

Peter Kirk appeared in several times in the DC comics run of Trek.
In one special, he appeared with his three brothers on a camping trip with their famous uncle. The trip was interrupted by an unexpected visit from the orions.
In that same special, Peter went back in time to try to save his father from the parasites in "Operation: Annhailate." He himself is attacked, where he becomes the pilot of the vessel (mentioned in the beginnging of the episode) heading for Deneva's sun.
He also appeared as a research scientist assigned to a Starfleet science vessel in the Trek special produced by Wildstorm.
I am not aware of any other mentions beyond that. Although, I think he appears in A.C. Crispin's novel "Sarek."

One of G.S. Kirk, Jr.'s sons had a granddaughter named Jamie who was an Ensign on DS9. And the son of the Romulan commander toasted in BoT tried to kill her as revenge for the episode. Except the Organians stopped him. It was written by Mark Lenard. Yay comics!

I remember when DC Comics did their 2- or 3-part "Trial of James T. Kirk" deal in the early 90s. They brought back all the old folks, include Sam Cogley to defend Kirk (& his wiofe, Areel shaw) & there were witnesses ranged from an older Bela Oxmyx (who brought Kirk's cut of the action with him) to a very large Leonard James Akaar.

i've that comic on my table.. i thought about it for a while, and reconciled the story with the other LJ Akaar references.. the DS9 backstory says he was ousted in a coup and fled his world, joined Starfleet and is a Fleet Admiral by the post-DW era.. the LJ Akaar in the comic was still the ruler of his world

By the looks of it, after Voyager but before Nemesis.

Or the DS9 Akaar (Jr.) is the son and fled when his dear old dad got killed, joined STarfleet and became an Admiral. Shot in the dark, I know but it saves Mandell's not nowing about the DS9 books using the character.

Likely not knowing on his part and not catching it on Pocket Book's part.
