Several different approaches were taken by ''DWM'' during this era. At first, they told stories which had no obvious connection to the television series. [[Frobisher]] briefly ushered in the new Doctor's era, before scampering off. The Doctor then travelled around either on his own or with one-off companions. | Several different approaches were taken by ''DWM'' during this era.

After the television series ended, and the [[Virgin New Adventures]] series began, there was an effort to try to fit the comic stories into the novels' continuity. This period, though, came to a definitive end when ''DWM'' killed off Ace in ''[[Ground Zero]]'' | After the television series ended, and the [[Virgin New Adventures]] series began, there was an effort to try to fit the comic stories into the novels' continuity. This period, though, came to a definitive end when ''DWM'' killed off Ace in ''[[Ground Zero]]'' — an act that deliberately returned ''DWM'' to its own, separate continuity. | ||
By this stage, however, ''DWM'' had taken the editorial decision to consider the Seventh Doctor as a "past" incarnation. They began to use the comic space to tell stories of the other incarnations, which gave modern artists and writers the chance to feature Doctors and companions who hadn't really been a part of the ''DWM'' strip before. Thus, though the Seventh Doctor had a much longer reign in comics than television, it was a few years shorter than the gap between ''[[Survival]]'' and [[Doctor Who (1996)|McGann's televised outing]]. By contrast, the Eighth Doctor's era ended only when the [[Ninth Doctor]]'s began. | By this stage, however, ''DWM'' had taken the editorial decision to consider the Seventh Doctor as a "past" incarnation.
