In Star Trek: Early Voyages
Although no Star Trek comic books are considered canon, the series Early Voyages fleshed out the characters and story from "The Cage", including Number One.
In the series, she is depicted much as she is in "The Cage", and often finds herself taking command in the captain's absence. As stated above, her name in the series is given as Eunice Robbins.
Close to the end of the series, she was offered a promotion to the rank of captain and a ship of her own. She turned it down, opting to stay aboard the Enterprise.
Soon afterwards, Robert April, the former captain of the Enterprise, came aboard to supervise for a certain mission. During the mission, April gave reckless orders which led to Number One nearly (and possibly) being killed, and Pike and Kaaj unaccounted for. The story was never resolved.

Famous quotes containing the word early:
“I doubt that I would have taken so many leaps in my own writing or been as clear about my feminist and political commitments if I had not been anointed as early as I was. Some major form of recognition seems to have to mark a woman’s career for her to be able to go out on a limb without having her credentials questioned.”
—Ruth Behar (b. 1956)
