Notes
- This one-shot comic is the first to be released in the same month as an issue of the Doctor Who Ongoing series also from IDW, in this case, IDW: Silver Scream. According to an advertisement in the comic, IDW intends to continue publishing standalones on a monthly basis.
- It was reprinted in the graphic novel Through Time and Space.
- There were two covers made for this issue.
- The anti-chronological plot structure of the story is reminiscent of the First Doctor comic strip, TVC: "Time in Reverse".

Continuity
- The Doctor is without a companion (and in fact this is one of a handful of Tenth Doctor stories in which he doesn't even work with a one-off companion), likely placing this in the post-Journey's End timeframe, although as with some of the other recent stories of this type, there is really nothing in the story to suggest it can't occur during one of the earlier companionless intervals.
- The Doctor meets himself in his current incarnation, breaking the First Law of Time. He previously met himself in this way in DW: Day of the Daleks, DWM: The Collector and BFA: The Company of Friends, and observed himself in DW: Father's Day.
