Interweaving with the New Adventures

"" was an article in the 1993 Winter special of Doctor Who Magazine. It was important to scholars of the DWM comic stories, as it gave DWM's authorial position on how all of their Virgin Seventh Doctor comic strips were placed into the Virgin New Adventures continuity.

According to the article, DWM had produced the stories to fit with the following chronology:


 * Survival
 * followed by Timewyrm: Genesys and the three other Timewyrm novels
 * Fellow Travellers (DWM 164-166)
 * The Mark of Mandragora (DWM 167-172)
 * Under Pressure (DWM Yearbook 1992)
 * Party Animals (DWM 173)
 * The Chameleon Factor (DWM 174)
 * Seaside Rendezvous (DWM Summer Special 1991)
 * The Good Soldier (DWM 175-178)
 * A Glitch in Time (DWM 179)
 * Evening's Empire (DWCC Summer [sic] Special 1993)
 * The Grief (DWM 185-187)
 * Cat's Cradle: Time's Crucible
 * Cat's Cradle: Warhead
 * Ravens (DWM 188-190 — this story actually takes place during Warhead)
 * Cat's Cradle: Witch Mark
 * Metamorphosis (DWM Yearbook 1993)
 * Memorial (DWM 191)
 * Nightshade
 * Cat Litter (DWM 192)
 * Love and War
 * Transit
 * Pureblood (DWM 193-196)
 * Flashback (DWM Winter Special 1992)
 * Emperor of the Daleks! (DWM 197-202)
 * The Highest Science
 * The Pit
 * Deceit
 * Lucifer Rising
 * Final Genesis (DWM 203-206)
 * White Darkness
 * Shadowmind
 * Birthright
 * Iceberg
 * Time & Time Again (DWM 207)
 * Cuckoo (DWM 208-210)
 * Blood Heat
 * The Dimension Riders
 * The Left-Handed Hummingbird
 * Conundrum
 * No Future
 * Tragedy Day
 * Uninvited Guest (DWM 211)
 * Legacy
 * Theatre of War

Behind the scenes

 * COMIC: The Chameleon Factor introduced a new TARDIS control console with the implication that it appeared after fixing a problem with the chameleon circuit icon system. This control room was later seen in COMIC: Metamorphosis, The Last Word.
 * Despite this, the control room introduced in TV: The Five Doctors is seen in COMIC: The Mark of Mandragora. This console — as well as an inexplicably different console — are seen in COMIC: Final Genesis.
 * This console is seen in the illustrations for Doctor Who: The New Adventures Prologue, an abridged opening of Timewyrm: Genesys. Taking Interweaving with the New Adventures at face value, this retroactively establishes this control room being used before The Chameleon Factor. As a result of these discrepancies, it is difficult to say which control room exists in the VNA novels. (Furthermore, the Seventh Doctor lost his original TARDIS and used his TARDIS from an alternate universe between PROSE: Blood Heat and Happy Endings.)
 * Virgin New Adventures-related COMIC: The Last Word would be published eight years after this list was compiled.
 * The Incomplete Death's Head (which concluded a month after this article was published) was also not included in the list; the story was set before, during, and just after COMIC: Party Animals.
 * The DWCC Autumn Holiday Special is incorrectly identified as "DWCC Summer Special 1993".
