Background[]

In the early era of Star Trek comics and audio stories, Tanka was the only significant recurring character introduced for the Peter Pan Records series. The concept of characters unique to the comic series was not further expanded in a meaningful way until the DC Comics series in the 1980s when a number of recurring characters were introduced as a supporting cast.
