Characters

Worldbuilding

  • Frobisher takes the form of a Pantachian Rock Skipper.
  • The planet Ankara is the Federation of Worlds's political capital.
  • The President hosts the Galactic Alliance Summit.
  • Peri and Frobisher take part in repelling the Skeletoids in hand-to-hand combat.

Notes

A colour reprint. (Voyager)
  • This story was reprinted in DWCC 22 and colour reprinted in Voyager.
  • It is never clear who is responsible for uniting the six champions necessary to defeat the Skeletoids. COMIC: The Warrior's Story implies it could have been the TARDIS and previous Fifth Doctor stories present the possibility of the Time Lords, but nothing is made explicit.

Continuity

  • Abel was endowed with metamorphic powers due to the collision of a Time Vortex fragment with his laboratory. (COMIC: Abel's Story [+]Loading...["Abel's Story (comic story)"])
  • Frobisher remembers that Kaon died when he and the Doctor first met him. (COMIC: War-Game [+]Loading...["War-Game (comic story)"])
