Prologue: The Fifth Doctor was one of several prologues to the miniseries Supremacy of the Cybermen, published by Titan Comics.
Summary
While travelling through the Time Vortex, the TARDIS is suddenly caught in a time corridor that the Fifth Doctor finds familiar. After the TARDIS is forced to land, Peri asks where they've ended up. The Doctor tells her they're on Skaro, the home planet of the Daleks. However, when they step out of the TARDIS, instead of encountering the Daleks, they encounter the Cybermen.
