Skywatch-7 (comic story)

Summary
(Part One)

UNIT Arctic base Skywatch-7 (12/12/85) loses radio contact after a meteor landing is detected. John Campbell goes out to investigate, leaving Tobey in charge, but returns having found no sign. In the night John smashes up the radio link and fearful of a lighter flame runs outside. When the other soldiers (Captain Hawks, Lederer, Tobey) follow, they are faced with a Zygon.

(Part Two)

Going in pursuit, the soldiers witness changing footprints in the snow, indicating that the creature can change shape. Wrongly shooting the real Campbell who is wandering around dazed, they drive the alien creature onto the ice with fire and send it sinking beneath the frozen waters.
