comment |
As if the Doctor Who Magazine comics strip and the IDW Doctor Who comics weren't enough, in 2010 BBC Books started publishing hardbound original graphic novels set in the Whoniverse, using talent from the Doctor Who Magazine strip. So far, two have been published, The Only Good Dalek (2010) and The Dalek Project (2012), both by Justin Richards and Mike Collins and pitting the Eleventh Doctor against, as the titles suggest, the Daleks.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); }) |

comment |
Anatomically Ignorant Healing: The archaeologists in "The Dalek Project" reconstruct one Dalek with all its appendages and body parts incorrectly arranged, which doesn't stop it trying to kill them. |

comment |
Cruel Twist Ending: The sole surviving guest character from The Only Good Dalek makes contact with another human ship, but the captain appears to be another Manchurian Agent. Quite in keeping with the frequent grimness of the Nation spin-off humans vs. Daleks stories that the novel riffs off. |

Continuity Snarl |
| BBC Books Doctor Who Graphic Novels (Comic Book) / int_df582b0b |
comment |
Continuity Snarl: The Only Good Dalek is absolutely loaded with continuity references and Shout Outs to Terry Nation's 1960s Dalek TV stories and spin-off annual stories, and is clearly set in the same era of history, but features "Victory of the Daleks" New Paradigm Dalek designs. Presumably after "Victory" the new generation of Daleks perfectly replicated the pre-Time War timeline? Perhaps they warped ahead to change history. Some accounts of Dalek History claim soon after the Daleks Master Plan the Daleks were fighting a civil war. |
