From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
Some have argued that the vulture is essentially a background prop made of flesh and blood, but I personally see no reason to say that sentient DWU characters should be more valid then non-sentient DWU characters.
If this story concerned a non-sentient alien (or even a robot) that originated in a DWU story, I would expect much more support. So I see no reason to descriminate based the sentience of the characters.
And the name drop of the Doctor should not go overlooked. Both peices of evidence provide a good case for validity in my book.
