Notes Edit

• The recap at the beginning of the third part is somewhat muddled due to a line of text having been misplaced. As a result, the recap reads somewhat confusingly: "Projected into the future, the Doctor / damaging robot machinery. / But, Amazingly, the planet is ruled by / is tried on a distant planet for accidentally / children, and..." (original published text) The fact that the Doctor's speech balloon directly below reads "What nonsense is this?" is pure coincidence.
