Summary

Characters
References
- The Threshold's 'game plan' is elaborated upon further.
- The Doctor uses " Gracie" as an alias while infiltrating the Threshold.
- The Moon is destroyed.
Notes
- The usage of a "false Ninth Doctor" was a deliberate test on the part of the production team to see if they could regenerate the Doctor in the comic strips, and whether the audience would follow them. With no new televised Doctor Who on the horizon in the wake of the failure of the 1996 tele-film to produce a series, DWM were looking for a way to give their comic strip some new life. Though never intended as an actual replacement for the Eighth Doctor, this Nick Briggs-inspired version would at least give both readers and the creative staff a taste of what it might be like to consider a post-McGann strip.
- This is not the first time Briggs has been associated with a version of the Doctor. He had played the Doctor before, and that Doctor had even been arguably featured previously in a Doctor Who Magazine comic strip. However, this version of the Doctor was of course not the Doctor at all, but Shayde. Thus the fact that he looks like Nick Briggs shouldn't confuse the reader into believing that this is the so-called "Nick Briggs Doctor".
Continuity
- The Threshold first appeared in DWM: Ground Zero, where they killed Ace. Unknowingly, Izzy uses Ace's baseball bat to defeat them.
- The mysterious box that the Threshold were being paid with in Fire and Brimstone is stated to have come from Rassilon, and was the gift of universal translation. It's also absent, having been dropped and lost in the same story.
Timeline
- This story takes place after DWM: The Final Chapter
- This story takes place before ST: Syntax
