Continuity[]
- This particular encounter between the First Doctor and the CyberMondans is the result of the mass invasion of time and space by an army of Cybermen at the end of the universe, who have allied with Rassilon. (COMIC: Supremacy of the Cybermen)
- Susan is being followed by Ian Chesterton and Barbara Wright in a car. (TV: An Unearthly Child)
- The Cybermen holding the First Doctor hostage resemble the CyberMondans that this incarnation will ultimately encounter at Snowcap at the end of his life. Anomalously, one Cyberman lacks the Cyber-gun on the underside of its chest unit. (TV: The Tenth Planet)
- This encounter between the First Doctor and the Cybermen is ultimately erased from history when the Twelfth Doctor and a betrayed Rassilon use the Eye of Harmony on Gallifrey at the end of the universe, along with the Cyberiad's dominance across history, to undo the Cybermen's conquests across time and space. (COMIC: Supremacy of the Cybermen)
