Talk:Death's Head

Time Guardian
I'm seeking information on this one, haven't found even a reference to it yet. When DH and the Doctor first meet(are said to meet for the first time, I mean), a "Time Guardian" appeared. Who, or what, exactly is that? There are references to a time guardian in the Marvel Universe UK, concerning Killpower and DH II. Is it a creation from Marvel, then, or does it belong in the Dr. Who universe?


 * Basically it's supposed be a parody of police officers who arrive to access the damages of a car crash. The "Time warden" arrives due to 7 and Head colliding at the Crossroads of Time. OS25🤙☎️ 10:50, July 16, 2017 (UTC)

Last meeting between DH and Dr. Who
They met again, in the "Incomplete Death's Head" series, last issue. Likely a retcon, the Doctor claimed it's been him who dragged DH to the Transformers Universe and enlarged him. Their final meeting took place on Maruthea, shortly(?) after the party.

Death's Head 3.0 unrelated?
The conclusion of Death's Head 3.0 implied that he was going to be rebuilt into the original. If that's the case, he's definitely related to the Doctor. -72.215.154.250talk to me 22:58, February 27, 2012 (UTC)

Death's Head II
So now that The Incomplete Death's Head is valid, do we create a new page for Death's Head II or write about it on this page? Chubby Potato ☎  17:28, September 23, 2018 (UTC)


 * My initial instinct is to put it all on one page. After all, the Master, the Monk, Rassilon and Ollistra all occupy into one page (though sometimes out of necessity rather than by choice). In other words, a mere changing of a body by an individual does not necessitate the creation of a new page. Nor does it preclude it as Romana I, Romana II, etc. show. But before we start discussing the benefits of separating, I do not remember off the top of my head whether "Death's Head II" is used in TIDH. I do not have time at the moment to reread it, so if somebody could double check this, would be great. We should be careful not to import Marvel designations from the larger Marvel universe.

 * The name Death's Head II is used on the covers, editor’s notes within the panels, and in “next time” notices (e.g. Next time: Death's Head II - trapped in cyberspace!), but not in the actual TIDH comic as far as I can tell. Do any of those count? Chubby Potato  ☎  22:39, September 23, 2018 (UTC)


 * I think this would be enough. I'll leave it to real experts on comics to comment on the common practices (in general and of Marvel UK in particular), but to me this is equivalent to audio/television credits, which we have used for naming pages since forever, even if the name is never pronounced onscreen.

 * I agree. Anyway, there are two sides to this. There is the fact that DH II appears in TIDH only and could seemingly be covered on one page, but also, DH II is quite a different character from the original. Another thing is since the only story DH II appears in is one that also has the original, it might be confusing to list both of of them of characters and link to the same page. I think one of the reasons we have different incarnations of characters like Rassilon or The Master is because we don’t always have a definitive differentiation between each incarnation, or which body it is. The Master has appeared in so many spin-off media with conflicting information it’s hard to split it up. However with Romana, it is made rather clear which incarnation is which. So I think we should give them separate pages. Chubby Potato ☎  01:41, September 24, 2018 (UTC)
