The Rogue Planet[[edit] | [edit source]]

As noticed by the Space News Agency, the Daleks started to track the rogue planet of Skardal after the Astrodalek witnessed its creation. Skardal later impacted with Omega Three, putting it on a collision course with Skaro. (COMIC: The Rogue Planet) On 26 March, TV21's Dalek correspondent reported that the Dalek Emperor had ordered an emergency squad to intercept the planet, which was now "careering wildly" through space, and alter its course. (PROSE: Thunderbird Two) They successfully diverted a meteor storm so that the meteorites would draw Skardal away from Skaro and onto a path with Mechanus, the planet of the Mechonoids.

Alarmed by the coming war between the Daleks and the Mechonoids and the likelihood of being targeted by the victor, the Zerovians of Zeros sent the humanoid robot 2K to prevent either side attaining victory. Learning of Skardal, 2K stole a Dalek missile and set it on a course with the planet. He separated the rocket from the warhead, which began a journey back to Skaro, requiring the Daleks to fire their anti-missile rockets to destroy both the warhead and Skardal. 2K then landed on Mechanus and told the Mechonoids that the Daleks had purposely destroyed the rogue planet to save them. He persuaded them to call off the war, but the Mechonoids allowed him to escape to warn his creators that the Daleks and Mechonoids were still enemies. The Space News Agency published a detailed summary of the execution of the Zerovians' plans, spanning several reports. (COMIC: Impasse)
