Synopsis
The End was the final comic story printed in DWBIT 70. It was written by Stephen Cole.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Down in the cellar, the Tenth Doctor and Bob find Presence, a living world-ship who is Absence's tutor and guardian. Absence is compared to an errant child, behaving without boundaries. A collision damaged the world-ship and separated Absence from Presence. As Absence grows in strength, Presence grows weaker. Soon Absence will consume everything. The Doctor suggests using the TARDIS to boost Presence's power so that Absence can be contained, but the way to the TARDIS is blocked by the dragon creatures. When the Doctor is struck unconscious by a dragons tail, Bob takes the TARDIS key from his hand and races to the Doctor's "hut".
As Bob opens the TARDIS door, Presence draws on the energy and is restored. Like a child, Absence is returned to his guardian and everything is returned to normal, except Bob, who died in the sacrifice he made. The Doctor visits the derelict house as the developers move in. Any buildings to this day built on this site carry a wall plaque of unknown origin stating simply, "Bob Manning Lived Here. The man who saved the world".
