Revolutionary Engine For XL5 was a short story printed in TV Century 21 that contained elements from the Doctor Who universe. Framed as the front page of an in-universe periodical, the titular article instead made reference to the Fireball XL5 comic story Icemen of Space, which was a crossover with the DWU.
