Opening Tag

The Doctor and Martha are following alien robbers with plans for the Earth in the past, present and future …

Summary

Following the alien teleport to its secret lair, the Doctor and Martha find themselves on a neutral space capsule where Big Yedari (one of the most wanted crime lords in future history) is attempting to choose between two alien gangs of Verx and Alsh to rob Earth of its treasures throughout time. The two gangs have engaged in a contest to prove who is the most successful. Unfortunately the Doctor’s interference has ruined the contest. The Doctor creates a disturbance by convincing Big Yedari that he was double-crossed by the Alsh leader, and while the aliens fight amongst themselves, the Doctor and Martha (stealing one of the teleporting device) seal themselves in the control centre. There the Doctor seals off the capsule, disables all the remaining teleporting devices, sets the docked craft loose, traps the aliens and Big Yedari, teleport across to the Yedari ship and sends a message to the nearest space cops, before teleporting to Earth to collect the TARDIS.

Notes

  • Supporting the series of collectable Doctor Who trading cards, the magazine title, carried a regular 4 page, individually titled comic strip series of the Tenth Doctor’s adventures.
  • Style wise, the artwork and colours were bold and bright reflecting the tone of the magazine and, as with Doctor Who Adventures, it reflected the appeal to younger readers than that catered for by Doctor Who Magazine.

References
