Behind the scenes[[edit] | [edit source]]
As Daleks' Invasion Earth 2150 A.D. was released in Argentina long before Dr. Who and the Daleks (or any other version of the original The Daleks narrative), the comic adaption Daleks, invasión a la Tierra año 2150 was written for an audience unfamiliar with the otherwise-established Dalek homeworld of Skaro. For this reason, it gave an alternative origin for the murderous invaders: the planet M-1 orbiting the star Deneb. Deneb is a real star in the Milky Way; it is unclear whether one should understand "M-1" to be human astronomers' name for Skaro (identifying one of Skaro's "two suns" as Deneb, and unusually presenting Skaro as a planet in Earth's own galaxy), or a differing, perhaps diegetically mistaken account of the Daleks' origin.
