Italian writer Carlo Recagno is ''Doctor Who'' fan and includes many references in his work:
* In ''La donna che cambiò la storia d'Italia'' (2011), the 14th volume of ''Storie da Altrove'', a spin-off of Italian comic series {{wi|Martin Mystère}}, [[the TARDIS]], [[K9]], [[Donna Noble]], the [[Eleventh Doctor]], [[Amy Pond]], Captain [[Jack Harkness]] (with [[Torchwood Institute|Torchwood]]'s logo), a [[Silurian]], a [[Dalek]] and a [[Weeping Angel]] appear in the background in different panels. The main character's cover name throughout the story is "Lady [[Christina de Souza]]" and another character directly quotes [[Tenth Doctor]]'s explanation of time heard in ''[[Blink (TV story)|Blink]]''. The villain mentions being addressed as "The Oncoming Storm" and that his name "[[The Fires of Pompeii (TV story)|burns in the stars, in the Cascade of Medusa herself]]".
* In ''Gli enigmi del giovane Martin'' (2012), 29th volume of Speciale Martin Mystère, the [[Fifth Doctor]] and [[the Master]] appear as a cameo in the Altrove base. A woman is seen asking the whereabouts of "[[Jack Harkness|Captain Harkness]]".
* In ''Congiura nei cieli'' (2012), 322th volume of regular series of Martin Mystère, a writer named [[Canton Everett Delaware III|Canton Everett]] is pursued by the Men in Black.
* In ''La dama che incantò Arsenio Lupin'' (2012), 15th volume of ''Storie da Altrove'', a panel depicts the [[Seventh Doctor]] fighting harpies together with [[Sherlock Holmes]], reprising the identical pose the duo had on [[All-Consuming Fire (novel)|All-Consuming Fire]]'s cover. Holmes recalls having met a friend the last time at [[Bernice Summerfield]]'s [[Happy Endings (novel)|wedding]]. A woman similar to [[River Song]] is seen fighting Yog-Sothoth alongside Holmes in the subsequent panel. Additionally, Lupin uses [[Tenth Doctor]]'s catchphrases "I'm so sorry" and "Allons-y!", and refers to the Countess Cagliostro as "[[The Wedding of River Song (TV story)|Hell in high heels]]".
* In ''Il matrimonio di Sergej Orloff'' (2013), 330th volume of regular series of Martin Mystère, Altrove's commander Tower is seen in [[Peru]] leading an Altrove joint mission with [[UNIT]], led by [[Brigadier Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart]]. A [[Time Lord]] is seen in the background of Altrove's base. In a flashback, a Mu soldier is seen wearing an outfit identical to those worn by [[Ice Warrior]]s.
