Terror in the Taj Mahal (comic story)
Terror in the Taj Mahal is a Doctor Who Adventures comic strip published in 2013.
Summary
On the Hollow Moon of Artenture the Doctor takes Decky Flamboon to another replica of a famous Earth landmark this time the Taj Mahal. Once again the Doctor is able to find some more of the co-ordinates that will help him get Decky home. But they soon discover the Propheetis ( an army of soldiers that kept rebuilding themselves with robot parts) have been using the landmark as a base. The Propheetis have been adapting the Taj Mahal into a giant weapon – their greatest yet! They intend to replace their Taj Mahal with the real one on Earth to be activated when they are ready for their invasion of the planet. But telling Decky to run, the Doctor activates all the weapons with a wave of his sonic screwdriver. Racing back to the TARDIS they watch the replica Taj Mahal empty all its missiles from the towers. One of the missiles shoots past and knocks out the Propheetis who is waiting at the TARDIS door to stop the Doctor. Decky realises that his mission has changed, he’s now more concerned with stopping the bad Brancheerian from selling replicas landmarks for evil plans than he is finding a way home.
