Behind the Scenes

Wolfgang "Wolfie" Ryter was created by 12-year-old Hamish Gough. Wolfie was the winning creation of the second comic companion competition sponsored by Doctor Who Adventures.

Wolfie is currently the Second companion to leave the TARDIS immediately after being possessed by an Alien entity/Inteligence. the First to leave the TARDIS crew by Alien intelligence possession was Dodo Chaplet

Continuity

In the order of publication, Wolfgang joined the Doctor after Heather McCrimmon, who joined, after Donna Noble had left. Given statements made in the post-Journey's End era regarding the Doctor refusing to take on ongoing companions after Donna, Heather and Wolfgang's presence either violates TV continuity, or take place at some earlier point in the Tenth Doctor's life, likely between DW: Voyage of the Damned and Partners in Crime.

The Doctor only states that he was going to travel alone in "Planet of the Dead" and by that time he's lost both Heather, and Wolfgang, and possibly others, like Majenta Pryce, also, in the tenth Doctor's final comic strip in Doctor Who Adventures, Heather and Wolfgang mention it has been four years since Heather, and presumably Wolfgang, last saw The Doctor, and as he is about to face his regeneration we can place Heather and Wolgang's travels just after "Journey's End", but before "The Next Doctor" as all the specials, from "The Next Doctor" take place over 3/4 years, thus linking in Heather's statement, we can also link in the Doctor's statement about having "Lost companions" from "Planet of the Dead" and "The Next Doctor" As, at the time of "The Next Doctor" and "Planet of the Dead" both Heather, and Wolfgang, were both lost, to the Doctor as Wolfgang couldn't take travelling anymore and Heather couldn't travel with him as she was forced to stay on Earth because of jilted particles, that would result in her death if she travelled through time.
