Yes it is. It is implied that K-9 (Mark I) has survived the destruction of Gallifrey --Bigshowbower 09:37, December 14, 2009 (UTC)
I'm confused why we're using a conjectural title when his name is given on-screen, and we even have a screencap of that name. He's K9 Mark 2. Period. As distinguished from K9 Mark II. Note, too, that this screencap would appear to end the debate over the hyphen as well. Clearly no hyphen there. And I don't know where you're getting "2050" from. Is that onscreen at any point? I don't recall a year being specified at all. CzechOut | 12:53, March 1, 2010 (UTC)

So, has K9 in this series made any references to the Whoniverse at all or in any way? TheTARDIScontroller 18:27, January 16, 2011 (UTC)

Redesign[[edit source]]

I don't currently own either The Essential Book nor Megabytes (and they both seem generally difficult to get one's hands on currently), so I can't check whether there already is some as-yet-uncovered narrative reasoning behind the change, but shouldn't the redesign introduced in Short Circuit and carried forward into the next K9 book be spun off into its own article regardless, given that this one concerns one particular design of Mark I?
