These comic strip collections feature the seventh Doctor, portrayed by Sylvester McCoy. Nemesis of the Daleks sees the Doctor and Abslom Daak join forces in the conflict with the Daleks. Evening's Empire, a Doctor Who comic strip from the 1990s written by Andrew Cartmel, was never completed in the pages of Doctor Who Magazine, and this contains the first publication of the full story as originally intended, with brand-new artwork from the original artist, Richard Piers Rayner.
