Benjamin Sisko's Father Has Now Died In Star Trek

Brock Peters played Joseph Sisko, the father of Benjamin Sisko on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. Not his only role in the franchise, he also played Admiral Cartwright in The Voyage Home and The Undiscovered Country, and voiced the role of General Mi'Qogh in the video game Starfleet Command III. Born in 1927, he died at the age of 78 in 2005. But his character was still alive in the fictional world of Star Trek in the year 2375, the year of the Dominion War.

The latest issue of the new Star Trek comic book series out this week, IDW's ongoing series by Collin Kelly, Jackson Lanzing, Joe Eisma and Ramon Rosanas is set after the events of Deep Space Nine in 2378 and stars Benjamin Sisko, leading a team of characters from across the Star Trek universe. But this Wednesday's issue notes that Joseph Sisko didn't make it through the past three years.
