The Beast Is Back In Town (comic story)
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
The Beast is Back in Town is one of a series of online comic strips posted to the BBC's Doctor Who website. The comic strips were created using an online tool called Comic Maker, and the art consisted of images based upon the 2005-present Doctor Who revival. The BBC asked a number of professional Doctor Who writers to submit stories.
Summary
The Beast escapes his captivity and travels to Earth to seek revenge on the Doctor.
Characters
- The Doctor
- The Beast (impersonates Martha Jones)
References
- Donna Noble is mentioned.
- The Cybus Cybermen make a cameo appearance, but as illusions created by the Beast.
Notes
to be added
Errors
- When the Beast encountered the Doctor last, Rose Tyler was with him. Why, then, would he impersonate a later companion? The Beast has shown psychic abilities, or at least the ability to tap into the subconscious of its "victims". It could easily have deduced that Rose was forever sealed away in a parallel world and worked at creating illusions that the Doctor would find more believable.
Continuity
- The fake Martha expresses regret at leaving the Doctor, and the Doctor mentions Donna Noble, who does not appear in the story. This likely places the story in the post-DW: Journey's End timeframe.
- This story is a sequel to DW: The Impossible Planet/The Satan Pit.
