There's a DS wiki that might have a topic about the Innovation Comics for the 1991 series. They might offer synopses there. I didn't read every issue but I vaguely recall a panel where Liz was reflecting that Vicki was really her own daughter.
Despite all that's been said, I feel the need to repeat that in the original 1960s series, the idea that Liz was Vicki's daughter was most likely a red herring (as we used to say). I personally prefer thinking of Vicki as being the child of Liz because of the chemistry onscreen between the two and some of the dialogue that the scripts gave them. Also, Vicki was much more solicitous of Liz during the first two years than Liz's own acknowledged daughter, Carolyn.
There are various theories of who Vicki's parents were but the most likely are that she was Paul's child by another woman (I personally suspect Betty Hanscombe, but another fan firmly ruled that out; can't recall why). There's no doubt that Alex posed for the portrait of Betty displayed in some 1966 episodes. Amusingly, the portrait shows up later on in a 1967 or '68 episode in Sam's studio.
