Nowhere Man (comic story)
Summary
For a hundred years, Brox has been travelling alone in space. His mission to find alien life has failed, his ship (the Warm Welcome) is coming to the end of its life and the engines are failing. A trillion light years away on the other side of the galaxy, the Doctor and Amy gaze in wonder at a number of mini-wormholes appearing in space. The Doctor believes them to be caused temporarily by a breakdown of an engine-core. The TARDIS is taken through one of the wormholes where a delighted Brox finally gets to meet aliens. The Doctor explains to Brox that for a hundred years he has been travelling the outer rim of the universe, light years from anyone. Amy takes over the steering stick and, looping the loop a few times, creates a wormhole from the exhaust, big enough for the ship to fly through. Brox’s mission to find new life is over but his adventures are only just beginning.

Notes
- The DWAM comic strip adventures were very much aimed at a younger audience and the artwork and colours were bold and bright, reflecting the tone of the magazine.
- Self contained, one part stories were the norm.
