This isn't just "like" a photo comic, it is a photo comic: see a pdf preview of the inside here. Unfortunately, The Lodger (comic story) already exists, so I'm not really sure what the best way forward is. – n8 () 22:43, 3 April 2021 (UTC)

I can't help but think that the most elegant answer here would be to match "(novelisation)" with a newly-created "(comic adaptation)" dab-term. With this, Victory of the Daleks, the Radio Times story recently unearthed by yourself and User:OttselSpy25, and the Dell Dr. Who and the Daleks comic, that makes at least four pages that could receive it. I don't know if there is a set minimum number of stories for the introduction of a new dab term, but this is above the minimum required for the creation of category (three), which is something.

I see your point, although it's true that we have longstanding precedent of giving audio adaptations a regular old (audio story) dab term. Cf Beyond the Sun (audio story) and Cold Fusion (audio story), et al. – n8 () 00:36, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
