Howling:Pre-Time War Daleks erased from history? Maybe not...

Remember that bit in Dalek where the lone War-era Dalek says that it cannot detect any others of its kind anywhere in the universe in the year 2012 AD? Many people have long pointed to this as an indication that the Time War somehow removed all Daleks from all moments in time. But now I'm not so sure that is the case. The graphic novel The Only Good Dalek, by Justin Richards, set after the Time War, has characters specifically refer to events of the classic series story The Daleks' Masterplan, even mentioning Sara Kingdom and Bret Vyon as having been enemies of the Daleks. So it would appear that some classic series adventures involving the Daleks are still part of history. 194.168.208.42 11:26, November 18, 2011 (UTC)

It' all still part of history. That part of history just occured before the Time War. The Dalek in Dalek was from after the Time War, when the Daleks had all been exterminated. Episodes like The Dalek Invasion of Earth still happenned, because the Daleks and Time Lords in that episode were from before the Time War. The Dalek, who was checking up on his race after they were all destroyed in the war, naturally couldn't find any information on them. Besides, did the Daleks even exist yet in the 21st century? Didn't most modern day and historical Dalek episodes feature time travelling Daleks?Icecreamdif talk to me 16:47, November 18, 2011 (UTC)

Well, the Daleks in The Dalek Invasion of Earth weren't time travellers, and Genesis of the Daleks occurs around five hundred years prior to the era of The Dead Planet, which is widely considered to take place before Dalek Invasion of Earth. So I'd say there were definitely Daleks on Skaro at least a couple hundred years before the 20th century. 82.2.136.93 11:02, November 19, 2011 (UTC)
