In addition to these "one-off" crossovers, ''Thunderbirds'' stories featured concepts which debuted in ''[[The Daleks (series|The Daleks]]'' on a semi-regular basis. The final panel of ''The Daleks'' strip was usually one or two "Stop Press" [[news]] stories, continuing the idea that the entire contents of ''TV21'' was part of [[TV 21|a fictionalised newspaper from the future]] and offering readers a teaser of the events of the next issue. As well as often referencing future Dalek comic stories, it also regularly referred to the other strips in the magazine. This meant, for example, that the [[invisible ray torch]] seen in ''[[The Vanishing Ray (comic story)|The Vanishing Ray]]'' actually made its debut in ''[[The Menace of the Monstrons (comic story)|The Menace of the Monstrons]]''. Direct sequels or continuations to crossover stories printed in ''TV21'' also occasionally appeared in its sister magazine, ''[[Lady Penelope (magazine)|Lady Penelope]]''. | In addition to these "one-off" crossovers, ''Thunderbirds'' stories featured concepts which debuted in ''[[The Daleks (series)|The Daleks]]'' on a semi-regular basis.
