References
- The Doctor buys a burger and Kane demonstrates his telekinesis on it.
- The Skeletoids invade outposts on Sigma IV.
- Peri Brown is living in New York City in 1985. She is seen to angrily quit her office job in the first frame in which she appears. She meets Frobisher and rejoins the Sixth Doctor in their travels.
- In flashback, a Skeletoid is seen to attack and defeat both a Cyberman and a Dalek.
Notes
- Peri, an American in New York, tells her boss to find a new "skivvy," a British term meaning low-ranking domestic servant.
- This comic is the first of a four-part idiosyncratic series of titles, all following the template of "____'s Story", the blank getting filled with the name of the character focused on during each successive comic.
- The title Kane's Story, when paired with Abel's Story, forms a reference to Cain and Abel, two siblings mentioned in the book of Genesis of the Bible.
- The narration included within the story makes it very clear Kane's Story takes place after COMIC: Funhouse. However, the Seventh Doctor comic story Time & Time Again would later show that between Funhouse and Kane's Story, the Doctor and Frobisher went fishing for a time.
