Summary

The Shadeys were race that draws on negative emotions, choosing Robert Greene as a host for powerful negative emotions. By manipulating the dying Green they were able to turn his hatred, bile and jealousy of Shakespeare "up to eleven," giving them enough power to crush the planet.

Characters

References

  • The name Uncle Bloodfinger is very similar to Mother Doomfinger, who featured in The Shakespeare Code, an episode released not long after the comic wherein witches attempt to free other trapped witches. The dialog and presentation of the enemies speaking while watching the writer work is similar to several parts of The Shakespeare Code.
  • A tavern sign features a picture of a wolf's head and the initials "B.W.", a reference to the Bad Wolf story arc that is resolved in The Parting Of The Ways.

Notes

  • Final DWM comic strip to feature the Ninth Doctor. With this strip, the Ninth Doctor becomes the only incarnation in the history of the DWM strip to be shown sharing adventures with only a single companion throughout his tenure.

Continuity

Shakespeare first appears in Doctor Who in "The Executioners" Episode One of "The Chase".


The Fourth Doctor claims to have written out Hamlet's first draft as Shakespeare had sprained his wrist writting sonnets in "City of Death"
