From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference

I think that, for this thread, we should consider TIDH as one single big story (which should definitely be valid IMHO) that also happens to contains sequences from other comics inside rather than a collection of reprints. The question about whether or not the original prints should be valid might be better reserved for another discussion.

I see it like how the valid The Five Doctors TV story repurposed parts of the original Shada: this part was unquestionably valid in this context, but it didn't mean anything about wether or not Shada (TV) itself was valid. (or like how the valid Zagreus reuses audio from the fan story Devious but the later has its own debate about validity nonetheless)
