Entry 3512/A-7 (short story)
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
Entry 3512/A-7 was a short story which was published in the first issue of Doctor Who Weekly as part of The Doctor's Journal series. The story was accompanied by fully coloured illustrations which were meant to directly tie into transfers included with the first four issues of the magazine.
Summary[[edit] | [edit source]]
The Doctor lands on Magnon 5, but a malfunction in the TARDIS causes it to dematerialise without him. The natives become convinced that the Doctor is a devil and try to hunt him down. He is soon trapped in a sort of natural arena. As the dinosaurs draw near, the tribe's chief appears and orders the Doctor's death. At this moment, the TARDIS reappears and the Doctor swiftly leaves, noting his satisfaction with having left the door open.

Worldbuilding[[edit] | [edit source]]
- The tribesmen have managed to tame tyrannosaurs as hunting animals, and keep pteranodons as pets.
- The TARDIS rematerialises on a sacrificial stone.
Notes[[edit] | [edit source]]
- Entries of The Doctor's Journal, even as early as Issue 1, were printed with blatant gaps in the artwork, where things like ships and even the Doctor were missing. This was done so that those elements could be printed as transfers, to be pinned to the page as suggested in the guide (written in-universe by the Doctor himself).
