The Plant Master (comic story)

 is the ex post facto title of the Third Doctor comic story in the 1972 Countdown Annual. Like many pre-Marvel comic strips, it had no title on first publication. The name gained traction after being used by Jean-Marc Lofficier in The Terrestrial Index and confirmed by John Ainsworth in his then-comprehensive listing of Third Doctor strips in DWCC #4.

Summary
After materialising in the path of a motorbike rider, the Doctor becomes involved in a local mystery involving a mad professor and an rather intelligent plant.
