"THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS MACRA!"


The far-off Earth colony that the Second Doctor and his companions land on may seem like a jolly holiday camp, but what lies underneath the surface of the humans work, rest and play? Could such things as the crab-like Macra exist, manipulating them for their own life-sustaining purposes? Certainly not, the colonists tell the Doctor- such creatures don't exist. But we, the terrified viewers, and our onscreen heroes, know better...

Classic cover art for The Macra Terror special that was part of the excellent eighties fan partwork An Adventure in Space and Time. I assume it's by the late, great Stuart Glazebrook?
