Notes
[edit]
- Various Marvel UK Transformers creators have written for Doctor Who Magazine, itself a Marvel UK title:
- Simon Furman wrote several stories at the same time he was writing for the Marvel Transformers comic. This included the first crossover between Death's Head and the Doctor, and a Death's Head story featuring DWM character Keepsake.
- Dan Abnett wrote a number of Magazine strips in the late 80s and early 90s, as well as The Incomplete Death's Head.
- Steve Parkhouse and John Ridgway are famous in Who fandom for their work on the Magazine, which included a long run of Sixth Doctor strips. Sleepy Stansham is not too far removed from Stockbridge, a sleepy village from Parkhouse's strips.
- Mike Collins has a lengthy, still-going association with the strip.
- The UK Marvel Generation 1 comic featured Octus, who has a Dalek alt-mode, and the 2017 Transformers annual has a generic Transformer based on the character K9.
- The character Natasha Pyraniac from the Animated adventure Time-Quake seems to be based on / influenced by one of the Doctor's foes, The Rani.
- Other Doctor Who references in Transformers include Skaro, Trenzalore, the sonic screwdriver, and Verronian Warp Stars. Who superfan David Wise was known to insert references in his scripts, including a member of the Hive repeating "exterminate" in "The Rebirth, Part 2" and the Nebulans reversing the polarity in "The Rebirth, Part 3".[1]
- The Ask Vector Prime logo is a parody of the Doctor Who logo used from 2010 to 2014.
- Spacewarp's Combiner Wars bio mentions her being shrunk down by "a time traveler wielding a Tissue Compression Eliminator device," a reference to the weapon wielded by the Doctor's notorious rival the Master.
- In a 2013 episode of Doctor Who, "The Crimson Horror," the character Clara Oswald is shown to have a G1 Galvatron toy.
- Sound effects from Doctor Who have made it into various cartoon episodes from the 80s, including:
- The Dalek control room pulsing sound in "Microbots", "The God Gambit", and "The Key to Vector Sigma, Part 2".
- The TARDIS dematerialisation noise in "Explosion on Mars!! Maximus Is in Danger".
