Characters
References

Notes
- Despite being described as orange, like the Slitheen-Blathereen, the Hanazeen-Blathereen is depicted in the illustration as having green skin like the Slitheen and indeed the Blathereen in The Monsters Inside. Curiously, she is also seen without a compression field collar.
Continuity
- While the Second Doctor is familiar with Raxacoricofallapatorians in the form of the Hanazeen-Blathereen family, his next incarnation is unfamiliar with the Slitheen. (PROSE: The Christmas Inversion) When the Ninth Doctor confronts the Slitheen, he is able to recall their home planet only after narrowing it down according to their distinctive traits. (TV: Aliens of London/World War Three)
- The Doctor would battle Raxacoricofallapatorians again during his ninth (TV: Aliens of London / World War Three, Boom Town; PROSE: The Monsters Inside) and tenth incarnations. (AUDIO: The Taste of Death, PROSE: The Slitheen Excursion)
