The World That Waits (comic story): Difference between revisions

}}'''''{{StoryTitle}}''''' was  a comic story original to ''[[The Dalek World]]'', a [[Dalek annual]] of the [[1960s]]. It was unusual for featuring no [[human]] characters whatsoever. Instead, it depicted a battle between the [[Dalek]]s and the [[Mechonoid]]s on the [[planet]] [[Mechanus]]. It can be viewed as a sequel to [[TV]]: "[[The Planet of Decision]]", the final episode of ''The Chase''.  It was one of the very few appearances of the Mechonoids outside that [[serial]].   

On [[Mechanus]], the [[Mechonoid]]s have hatched a cunning plan to draw the [[Dalek]]s near. When the over-confident Daleks arrive in [[Mechonoid City]], they are at first soundly repulsed. Even the [[fungoid]]s are pitching in to squeeze the life out of the Daleks. Just when it appears the Daleks will be utterly vanquished, the [[Black Dalek]] calls for a horrible weapon unknown to the Mechonoids. With the single press of a button, the [[atom divider]] hurls terrific energy into one of the legs supporting Mechonoid City. The city has no choice but to collapse. A remaining Mechonoid, deep within the rubble, promises that the Dalek treachery will be avenged . . .
