Eldrad Must Live! was a spin-off of Doctor Who making use of Bob Baker's individual license to the titular character. It was Eldrad's first official appearance since the Doctor Who Main Range audio story Eldrad Must Die! in 2013.

The comic was effectively a prelude story to the Gods and Monsters comic series by Cutaway Comics.
