Haven't read the timeline yet, so this amuses me and makes me satisfied.
He did in episode 19 of series 1 "Old Wounds" (post 150)
From 1968 Star Trek appeared as the colour strip at the centre of the TV21 comic. It maintained this position all the way through to TV21’s eventual demise in 1971. Even then it continued as a black and white strip in Valiant until its demise in 1976.
Each story lasted 5 or 6 issues of the comic even in the Valiant days. However this did result in the last story in 1976 comprising nearly a quarter of the last issue of Valiant!
The comic strip was drawn by artists such as Frank Bellamy, Ron and Gerry Embleton and Keith Watson. Despite their different styles there managed to be a continuity of characterisation (i.e. each character was readily recognisable from the drawing not just the way that he was addressed) which at its best was compared to Dan Dare at its height.
Although many of the stories up until 1971 were taken over by the actual show they were considered to be good Star Trek stories in their own right. Indeed there are two sets of strips which are considered to be canon. The first is a set of stories set in the early days of Pike’s command of the Endeavour and the second are those stories that are set after the end of the last episode of the television series in the reset continuity.
These even saw a change in crew to reflect the changing norms of the 70s, so for example there was a Japanese Science Officer Hiromi Sulu (the nephew of the Captain Sulu shown in the episode The Dragon), and even a Russian Deputy Chief of Security Grigori Putinov as well as an Indian Admiral Moraji Roy.
Despite the temptation Star Trek was not directly tied into the shared world of the other Gerry Anderson based stories. However there were recurring Admirals Tracey and Shore and a helmsman named Parker who bore amazing resemblances to certain characters from Stingray and Thunderbirds!
The strips were collected together in a series of books first by Hawk in the late 1980s and then by Titan in the early 2000s. They have proved popular not just with the generation that watched Star Trek on the television and bought (or had bought for them) TV21 and/or Valiant but also with their children and grandchildren.
