It was originally scheduled as the first of a series of Seventh Doctor volumes. This was so entirely expected, that even the promotion text on the book suggests it's only the "first volume" of Seventh Doctor strips. In the event, however, Panini stopped publication of the whole line before further Seventh Doctor editions could be published.
