He was in a strip I commissioned from Warwick Gray for the Time Lord
special I did at Marvel. In Wick's original, he was called Magus and meant
to be the Master but I cocked it up and called him Magnus. When Dave
McIntee created Koschei, it struck me on re-reading Wick's strip that the
character could just as easily, if not better, be the War Chief. Which he
is in DL.

So Mag(n)us is The Master. Russell retconned him to be The War Chief. However, that sequence in Divided Loyalties is unquestionably a dream. One could also argue(as many have), that Divided Loyalties is set in a non-existent gap between The Visitation and Black Orchid, that it contradicts both The Celestial Toymaker and The Nightmare Fair. that The Doctor had never heard the name Koschei before The Dark Path, or that Divided Loyalties claims that The Monk left Gallifrey BEFORE The Doctor. Clearly the Magnus here needs to be a redirect to The Master, as well as the Flashback article corrected. 41.133.0.18talk to me 16:31, November 1, 2012 (UTC)
