The Archives of Phryne






	As the Daleks search for new weapons to defeat the Mechanoids, they happen upon a lone satellite hanging in the void. The Saucer Commander is suspicious and soon realises that the rest of the solar system is hidden by an invisible barrier. And the inhabitants of the planet Phryne have good reason to hide from the Daleks: they carry the secrets and histories of one hundred planets, knowledge that the Daleks would wipe out a world to obtain.

The Daleks aboard their spaceship. With this strip being illustrated by Eric Eden, things look a little different from the normal Dalek idea of interior design... and substantially more tasteful.

A couple of Phrynians. Shortly before they become ex-Phrynians...

A Phrynian patrol is targeted by Dalek missiles. Now might be the time for evasive manoeuvres.

The Controller’s new pet was proving difficult to house train. And it barked all night which upset the neighbours.

The Controller on his balcony. For this one, I particularly enjoyed making the ornate green screen that stands behind the Controller’s desk.

The simple things in life, eh?

Aboard their saucer, the Daleks plot the downfall of just about everybody and everything that doesn’t glide about shouting ‘Exterminate’.

And having plotted, the Daleks put their cunning plan into action by shooting everything that moves.

The Controller and his assistant Saf listen in to the Dalek broadcasts. This is what we all used to do before the age of television. Honest.

The Phrynians like their interiors large and gloomy. It saves a fortune on the electricity bills.

You can see Saf on the balcony.

The Daleks establish a base on Phryne’s moon. That large red thing is called the... ahem.... vibrator. What was David Whitaker thinking of...

Phryne City. Quite a nice place to visit. Until the Daleks move in to do a spot of landscape gardening...

Saf and the Controller have a chat on the terrace. It’s probably connected to those Dalek-things that have landed in the square below. Or it could be about the price of a pint.

A Dalek, aboard his spaceship. Yesterday. About 2:15pm

The Black Dalek on Phryne’s moon plots to use his vibrator.

Stop sniggering at the back. It isn’t funny at all.

And talking of the vibrator - here it is in all its majestic glory.

See? I told you it wasn’t funny.

A Dalek in the heart of Phrynian power. This can only be a bad thing.

The Phrynians counterattack with big shiny red spaceships, but I suspect we can all guess the outcome of this particular fracas, can’t we?
