Mentioning characters you don't plan to use?
Deadman reacted to Desiderius Price for a topic
Know readers would likely wonder where Jane is, so yeah, a short snippet is good. Maybe you write a short-short story that covers it? (Even if you don’t publish, it’d be good to reference.) A decent example I’m thinking of, is Star Trek TNG, Gates McFadden got “fired” end of season 1, so they explained her absence as “reassignment to Starfleet Medical”, and once rehired for Season 3, “one year rotation’s over, she’s back”.1 point -

I suppose I could add another but that’s not the plan in any sense. At least within the context of the story, Jane would be involved in between the current story I’m writing and the sequel. But I appreciate the insight on how I could mention it.1 point
