There was clearly a feeling, at one point, that the Renegades in the War were ruled strictly by the successive Supreme Daleks. It was a bit of a retcon when PROSE: War of the Daleks revealed that the Supremes had been acting on the orders of the Dalek Prme, all along.

But I think it's a retcon that the (singular) Emperor didn't really die in Emperor of the Daleks!, rather than a retcon that the Emperor in these comics was an impostor or decoy. Remember that War of the Daleks has a plot point of the Dalek Prime faking his death thanks to a remotely-controlled, automated duplicate of his casing…
