Notes
- This comic story is of no relation to the television story of the same name, which was broadcast in 1973, the following year.
- Picking up right after the events of *Sub Zero, the final issue of which was released the previous week, The Planet of the Daleks creates a very rare instance of one Dalek story immediately following another one. The TV series later did something similar with Frontier in Space and Planet of the Daleks in 1973 (The Conquest of Far was later written to follow on in 2017), and The Day of the Doctor and The Time of the Doctor in 2013.
