The Starmaker was an Earth passenger spacecraft in the 22nd century. It was forced to land on Skaro after being damaged in a meteor storm engineered by the Daleks. They destroyed the vessel, forcing the three survivors — Captain Flint Fleet, Tom and Jennie — to steal a Dalek ship to get home. However, the Daleks discovered the location of Earth, and began planning its conquest. (COMIC: The Road to Conflict)
