'''We are the Daleks!''' was a short story original to the [[1973 (releases)|1973]] ''[[Doctor Who Special (1973)|Doctor Who Special]]''. | '''We are the Daleks!''' was a short story original to the [[1973 (releases)|1973]] ''[[Doctor Who Special (1973)|Doctor Who Special]]''. Eight years after ''[[Genesis of Evil (comic story)|Genesis of Evil]]'' and two years before ''[[Genesis of the Daleks (TV story)|Genesis of the Daleks]]'', it saw Dalek creator [[Terry Nation]] giving yet another possible account of [[Creation of the Daleks|the Daleks' origin]] which has little in common with any other version of Dalek history. The story depicted [[Ameron]] as the Daleks' home planet, rather than the familiar [[Skaro]], and revolved around the revelation that the Daleks evolved from [[human]]s artificially transplanted to the planet by the [[Halldon]]s as part of an experiment (hence the title). | ||
