Time Bomb (comic story)
Summary
With Peri watching a baseball match, the Doctor uses the time to effect repairs on the TARDIS. Just as the repairs are complete they are struck by a projectile fired from a time cannon. The Doctor traces the cannon to the planet Hedron and pilots the TARDIS there to investigate. However, whilst investigating, he and Frobisher get caught up in another time experiment and find themselves on prehistoric earth. They inadvertently change the future so that humans never evolved and reptiles took over and it’s only through an accident that they manage to set things back on course. Arriving on Hedron, they discover the truth. The Hedrons had been disposing of their genetic waste by sending it back in time and it had ended up on prehistoric earth where it contaminated things. That contamination then led to the creation of humans. Sadly though a human spacecraft crashed into the Hedron’s city and infected them with the genetic waste that they’d disposed of, wiping them all out. The Doctor and Frobisher return to the restored time line to pick up Peri from the baseball match, planning to sneak in without paying. The Doctor, true to form, gets the co-ordinates wrong though and they end up on the pitch, the bemused spectators watching...
