(COMIC: Doctor Who and the Star Beast [+]Loading...["Doctor Who and the Star Beast (comic story)"]) According to another, the star which mutated the Meep into a race of evil warmongers was their own living sun, which went "mad", becoming a psychedelic sun which induced solar psychedelia in its victims.
