The story that opened this series and the first part of which was published on 1 June 1996. It's a really cool story with cybermen. Lee Sullivan has an incredible talent for drawing them, so this is a treasure. The series of strips starts with a lot of action right away, although it's understandable - we only have six panels to get to know each other, we need to move quickly and get used to it, so the first parts are just action to action. The part with the already captured Doctor and his new companion Stacey is more relaxed, but the battle between the Doctor's mind and the Cyber Leader looks great (again, given the limitations). The ending simultaneously refers to the Third Doctor and invents the trope of ‘a cyberman can't kill the person he used to love’, which Moffat will then rediscover with Danny and Clara.

Basically, it's a cool story, I liked it.
