The Immortal Emperor (comic story)

Summary
The Tenth Doctor and Donna arrive in China, "A couple of centuries BC". The Great Wall of China is still being built. Before the Doctor can stop her, Donna takes photos with her Mobile phone. They are captured and thrown into a pit, where they must battle some sort of Robot made of pottery. They defeat it using Donna's phone signal.

The two of them are taken by Meng to the Imperial Palace because they have killed the "Immortal Emperor". On the way they see the Terra Cotta Army being put in place. The Doctor is taken by guards to see the Emperor while Donna is taken by the Meng for "examination". The Doctor realises the Emperor is a cyborg - half human, half terra cotta. He convinces the Emperor that he has the secret to immortality.

Donna is with Meng, who transforms into a vicious, blue alien with a vapourisation gun. The alien believes Donna to be from the Star Council, coming to bring him to justice. Meanwhile the Doctor finds a Warp Converter behind a curtain. The emperor says it was the celestial chariot of an old emperor. The alien bursts in with Donna at gunpoint. He wants to take control of Earth. He activates the Terra Cotta Army, which turn out to be robots. The alien switches off the cyborg Emperor and Donna calls her grandad on her phone. The signal turns on the Emperor, who kills the alien but also short-circuits the Warp Converter.

The Doctor and Donna run away just before the whole palace blows up, burrying the army. It will be found again centuries later and become one of the greatest discoveries of mankind.
