Time of the Cybermen (comic story): Difference between revisions

The TARDIS lands in Centuria Central in a temporal stasis field. Kadett is caught in a time-trance but the Doctor, who is a Time Lord, can resist the field. Cybermen in a patrol aircar spot him moving and pursue him. The Doctor uses his sonic screwdriver to bring the aircar crashing down. This draws the attention of other Cybermen, who arrive to salvage parts and take them back to base. The Doctor smuggles himself into the base with the salvage.

The base is the Triplanetary Bank, which the Doctor suspects has been robbed of its hargstone reserves to enable the Cybermen to maintain a stasis machine. The Doctor learns from the Cybermen that they built the stasis machine from the Torchwood Archive and used the device to subdue overwhelming opposition. Choosing the most secure place for the machine, the Doctor escapes and heads for the bank's vault, but it is made of titanium and is protected by laser-proof glass and destructor rays.

When the Doctor can't get in he uses the sonic screwdriver to turn the destructor rays inwards, destroying the stasis machine. The Cybermen have a mental link with the machine that enables them to move around inside the stasis field, so when the machine is destroyed the temporal feedback overloads their circuits.

With the planet's Cybermen defeated and the stasis field gone, the Doctor says goodbye to Kadett, warning her to keep her eyes peeled. In the shadows, the eyes of Cybermen glow red.

Cyberman stories

For the purposes of this list, a "Cyberman story" is one in which one living, authentic Cyberman plays a part within the confines of the story, outside of flashbacks to previous stories and cliffhangers that lead into the following story. For this reason, stories such as Dalek are absent due to only featuring deceased Cybermen on display. Stories like Carnival of Monsters, A Good Man Goes to War and The Vanquishers are also not included due to the Cybermen's appearance being of little consequence to the plot of the story.
