'''''Which Way Out?''''' was a short story that appeared in ''[[TV Comic Holiday Special 1976]]''.  It was, in fact, one of the few examples of a non-comic story in the history of the ''[[TV Comic]]'' license.  Even more peculiarly, it was illustrated by photographs from ''[[Doctor Who]]'' — specifically from ''[[Planet of Evil]]'' and ''[[Genesis of the Daleks]]''.

They tramp through the jungle terrain to discover a massive hydro-electric plant sitting on a huge, Niagara-like waterfall.  As they go in for a closer look, the Doctor twigs.  The architecture is unmistakably [[Dalek]].  The [[Dalek]]s have built a massive installation here.  This explains why the Time Lords were so concerned about Sarto.

Before long, the duo are predictably captured by the Daleks.  They are brought before the local Dalek leader, known as the [[Red Commander Dalek|Red Commander]].   The crimson mutant instantly announces that he intends to kill the Doctor.  He doesn't, however, instantly ''do'' it.  Instead, he inexplicably gives a time frame of "Fifty Dalek minutes" until the execution.

In the intervening time, the Doctor and Sarah have enough time to escape, rig the Dalek base for detonation, and return to [[the TARDIS]].  As Sarah and the Doctor feel the rumblings of a massive, subterranean explosion, they slip back into the [[time vortex]] for another adventure.
