Occasionally, elements of the Doctor Who universe are referenced in the broader popular culture. This page exists to throw a spotlight on some of these casual references made in television, comics, films and other media which happened during the 1990s.

Video games

Fallout 2

The TARDIS appears in Fallout 2.
  • The TARDIS can be found in the Desert, although it disappears after a while.
  • A speaking cyborg by the name of K9 is a recruitable companion. It refers to the player character as "Master", whenever it is an active member of the party.

Lemmings 2: The Tribes

The exit for one of the levels in Lemmings 2: The Tribes is the TARDIS.
  • The exit for the "Shadow Tribe" level is clearly the TARDIS.

Comics

Disney Comics

  • The 1999 Donald Duck comic story The Last Time Lord was a mashup spoof of Doctor Who and Star Wars where Donald was accidentally confused for the last surviving Time Lord in the universe after digging up a "laser sword" clearly standing in for a Star Wars lightsaber (the Jedi and the Time Lords being conflated in the story's mashup cosmology), and beamed up to outer space to battle a cyborg tyrant. Regeneration is alluded to, as the cyborg tyrant readily accepts Donald as his old Time Lord nemesis due to knowing that "your lot can change faces".
