The Colonel pitching Sergeant Who's Jelly Baby Adventures to Dez Skinn. (COMIC: The Origin of Doctor Who Magazine)
Within a nightmare Dez Skinn had in 1979, Sergeant Who's Jelly Baby Adventures was a comic book cooked up by Colonel Lionel Bluster-Outrage, head of Wayfleet Publications, based on his misunderstanding of, and bizarre opinions on, the premise of Doctor Who.
Bluster-Outrage's initial idea for a Doctor Who retool was to turn the Doctor from a "medic" into a sergeant, "so he could show those Nazis what-for". Told by Skinn that the Doctor was more likely to offer his enemies jelly babies, Bluster-Outrage switched gears and made this Sergeant Who into the protagonist of a book aimed at pre-schoolers, which he planned to merge with Nicey-Nice Stories if it wasn't successful within five months.
Within the dream, Skinn was horrified by this pitch and the previous one, which prompted him to put a dummy issue together on his own once he woke up and take it straight to the BBC. (COMIC: The Origin of Doctor Who Magazine)
