The entire run of original, non-parodic Doctor Who Magazine comics — whether originating from Marvel or Panini — are considered a part of the DWU by this wiki and therefore are valid sources. There's no doubt that those comics which debuted in the pages of DWM — which would exclude Tales from the TARDIS — were produced under license from the BBC, and that they satisfy our four little rules.

But it's the reverse question that typically interests more people: is the Doctor a part of the MU?

Well, fans typically use Death's Head as a reason why the Doctor is a part of the larger Marvel Universe, albeit a small part of it. There's really no doubt that the Seventh Doctor, at least, landed his TARDIS on the Baxter Building.

Nevertheless, the connection between the DWU and MU is extremely tenuous and essentially academic. It's not like there could be a Spiderman/Doctor Who crossover without new contracts being drawn up between the BBC and Disney.
