Invasion! The Enemy Within! (comic story)
Invasion! The Enemy Within! was a comic published in Doctor Who and the Daleks Omnibus.
Summary[[edit] | [edit source]]
A near-omniscient Life force from the "dark endless edge of eternal space" relays to the reader one of the few mysteries it does not understand about the universe. It shows that at some point in the past, the Daleks assembled their greatest war fleet ever and came to an obscure primitive planet. The Daleks ruthlessly exterminate the large lizards living on the planet and razed a great area of the primeval forest to build a Dalek Vault containing an army of frozen Daleks waiting to be activated in the future. The Daleks moved on to "conquer new galaxies" and in the time they were gone, new intelligent industrial life evolved on the planet.
The life force from the edge of space sends a scrambled thought image of what the settlement which has now been built over the Dalek Vault. When pieced together it is revealed to be London Bridge.
