I guess that explains why they forgot Picard has a brother (other than one line) and so on, if it was based on a story that was written before "Family" even existed! In this one though Picard's tragic backstory relative death was a (different) brother rather than the relative it is in "Picard".irst of all, from the first annual way back in 1990, we have a strikingly-familiar looking storyline attributed to Q actor John de Lancie, although Friedman is credited with supplementary dialogue. Q transports Picard to an alternate timeline with a fascist Federation analogue, and Picard’s family backstory is explored, including a tragic death of a close family member which he is forced to confront. Yes, I think it’s fair to say season 2 of Star Trek: Picard may have taken a wee bit of inspiration, especially given John de Lancie was directly involved with it. All the more remarkable that this was written before “Family” and thirty years before its reprise in “Picard”!
