Notes
Edit
- This comic is a meta-fictional effort, featuring a 'real world' character watching Doctor Who and the Doctor (Fourth) turning up, seemingly the person who is telling the story's friend.
- This is the first time the theme tune has been rendered in a comic, with lyrics:
- Da-Lin-Da-Din
- Da-Lin-Da-Din
- Da-Lin-Da-Din
- Wa-ooooo
- This is the final Fourth Doctor DWM comic strip.
Continuity
Edit
- TV: The Ark in Space is referenced.
- TV: Planet of the Daleks or Genesis of the Daleks is also mentioned, probably ("There was the huge army of Daleks underground". Given the era in which this is set, it could be either of these two stories).
- A scene from TV: Nightmare of Eden is seen on a TV screen.
- There are depictions of scenes from TV: The Talons of Weng-Chiang, The Deadly Assassin, Terror of the Autons, Terror of the Zygons and The Green Death.
- The comic ends with a homage to TV: The Android Invasion.
