Notes
- In addition to its printing in Dr Who's Space Adventure Book, Daleks Invade Zaos was serialised across the backs of 36 trading cards included in the wrappers of Wall's Sky Ray ice lollies. Each card bore an illustration of the corresponding scene on its front, and Space Adventure Book included spaces for each illustration to be glued into place alongside the text of the story.
- For reasons unclear, the Second Doctor is drawn with the height, facial structure and haircut of the First Doctor, with only the black hair differing him from his previous incarnation.
