    Hello Tim.

    I can’t see the DWM story ‘Black Powder’. I expect it takes to place between ‘Revolution of the Daleks’ and Series 13.

        The Thirteenth Doctor also makes a brief appearance in The Lonely Assassins video game and she’s travelling with Yaz during that.

        And then there’s something a bit more on the fringe so I don’t know if you’d want to include it or not, but the recent #FindTheDoctor event had something of a narrative to it, and featured some voice clips of Mandip Gill and Jodie Whittaker in character as the Doctor and Yaz. They’re only about 30 seconds each, so they’re not even necessarily full stories but interestingly it does give us a bit of a solo gap for 13 where she’s separated from Yaz. So yeah it’s up to you if you want to include those.

        Hi MeddlingMonk.

        Thanks for your suggestions. I’ve added the Thirteenth Doctor’s brief appearance in ‘The Lonely Assassins’ to the timeline and I’ve added the Thirteenth Doctor and Yaz’s messages to each other on their respective timelines. I’ve identified them with (#FTD) to hopefully avoid confusion.

        Tim 🙂

    Oh and a new new DWM comic strip called The Forest Bride began today, and it features just Thirteen and Yaz so that would go after Revolution of the Daleks.

    DWM have just released a new comic story called It’s Behind You! featuring the Thirteenth Doctor, Yaz and Dan. So that would be set after The Vanquishers.
