Theory:Timeline - Cybermen

This page lists appearances of the Cybermen in the order in which they experienced them. This timeline is based upon observations of the Doctor Who universe and the events that occur during each of these stories.

Origins
There are several conflicting origin stories for the Cybermen, including Mondasians converting themselves to deal with deteriorating planetary conditions (AUDIO: Spare Parts), ancient Cybermen predating the Mondasian Cybermen (COMIC: The Cybermen), and Mondas being another name for Marinus (COMIC: The World Shapers). These accounts seem impossible to reconcile. However, TV: World Enough and Time and The Doctor Falls establish that Cybermen are subject to Parallel Evolution, explaining contradictory sources of their origins. For more information, consult Creation of the Cybermen.

Appearance

 * The original Cyberman of Mondas, which the Twelfth Doctor identifies on sight as a "Mondasian Cyberman" (TV: World Enough and Time) first appear in TV: The Tenth Planet (1966), set in 1986. These Cybermen are identified in The ArcHive Tapes as "CyberMondasian".
 * A second Cyberman look debuts in TV: The Moonbase (1967), set in 2070. They are later seen on Telos in The Tomb of the Cybermen. These Cybermen are identified in The ArcHive Tapes as "CyberTelosian".
 * A third Cyberman look debuts in TV: The Wheel in Space (1968), set in 2079. These Cybermen are identified in The ArcHive Tapes as "Late CyberFaction".
 * A fourth Cyberman look debuts in TV: The Invasion (1969); set prior to The Tenth Planet, these Cybermen are led by a Cyber-Planner who recognises the Doctor from Planet 14. These Cybermen are identified in The ArcHive Tapes as "Early CyberFaction".
 * A fifth Cyberman look debuts in TV: Revenge of the Cybermen (1975), where they are reeling from their defeat in "the Cyber-War". These Cybermen are identified in The ArcHive Tapes as "CyberNomad".
 * A sixth Cyberman look, the last of the classic series, debuts in TV: Earthshock (1982); set in the year 2526, the Cybermen fail to stop a conference which will lead to a war they know that cannot win. These Cybermen are identified in The ArcHive Tapes as "CyberNeomorph".
 * A variant of "CyberNeomorph" features in TV: Silver Nemesis (1988). These Cybermen are identified in The ArcHive Tapes as "CyberIsomorph".
 * The first Cyberman look of the new series is introduced in TV: Rise of the Cybermen (2006) as a product of Cybus Industries from a parallel Earth. With the Cybus logo on their chest plate, such Cybermen appear to be a space-faring power, while making a reference to multiple universes, in TV: The Pandorica Opens; meanwhile, however, near-identical Cyberman appear in GAME: Blood of the Cybermen (2010), distinguished by an engraving of a Cyberman face in place of the Cybus plate.
 * TV: A Good Man Goes to War (2011) marks the on-screen debut of a "Cybus" variant that is a space-faring power within our universe, organised into Cyber Legions; the "Cybus" logo is absent, replaced by a generic chest plate rather than the engraving from Blood of the Cybermen.
 * The second Cyberman look of the new series is introduced in TV: Nightmare in Silver (2013) following the "Cyber-Wars" in the far future. They are associated with the Cyberiad.
