The Touchdown on Deneb-7 was a comic story published in Doctor Who Magazine. It was written by Paul Neary.
Summary[[edit] | [edit source]]
The Doctor and K9 arrive on a small barnacled moon long after the planet Deneb-7 has ceased to exist. The Doctor goes to rest while the TARDIS and K9 recalibrate themselves following a magnetic storm, but a slightly erratic K9 goes off exploring. The TARDIS' arrival has awoken robot minions beneath the surface, who await the Pendant Bearer's return, so that the "formalities" of colonisation of Deneb-7 can be completed. However, having destroyed the planet, it will take some four thousand million years for a new planet to reform. The robot minions return below ground to wait. K9 returns to the TARDIS before the Doctor awakes.
