Summary
Morun and Alto are the last survivors of the crew of a giant space ship. In their charge is the whole of the Thusion race, in suspended animation. Despairing of ever finding an uninhabited world to settle on, the dying Morun revives a young man, Zeros, from his long sleep. Zeros, however, does not share Morun and Alto's qualms about subjugating the primitive race of a nearby world. When the Doctor arrives, he saves Alto from death at Zeros' hands and tries to use the TARDIS to move Thusion ship to another, more hospitable galaxy.

Notes
- This was the very last continuous Third Doctor comic strip published within his era, with the very last words being spoken by the Doctor as he leaves for Earth: "Am I going to be allowed back to Earth yet. I wonder...?"
