* [[COMIC]]: {{cs|Voyager (comic story)}} would later see the [[Sixth Doctor]] meeting a villainous Time Lord plundered going by the name of [[Astrolabus]], whom he recognises as "[[the Thief of Time]]". Although Astrolabus bears a marked physical resemblance to Madrigor, however, the Doctor's prior encounter with Madrigor is not explicitly referenced, making it unclear that this was intended as an actual reference rather than convergent evolution.
* "[[The Time Thief]]" would, however, later be explicitly name-dropped in [[PROSE]]: {{cs|I Walk in Eternity (feature)}} as an alternative possible [[Renegade Time Lord]] protagonist who might be used as a focal character for the ''[[Adventures in Space and Time]]'' role-playing game.
