Other Media Formats
The series has been translated into other media. All the episodes have been adapted in novelisations (except, for some reason, "Earthbound", though this may be because E.C. Tubb was working from a different script of "Breakaway" in which Commissioner Simmons was killed when the Moon was torn out of Earth orbit) and the authors of these works have written a number of original stories. Several comic book series were published and, in the US, a series of audio adaptations were recorded on record albums with the younger audience in mind.

Famous quotes containing the word media:
“Never before has a generation of parents faced such awesome competition with the mass media for their children’s attention. While parents tout the virtues of premarital virginity, drug-free living, nonviolent resolution of social conflict, or character over physical appearance, their values are daily challenged by television soaps, rock music lyrics, tabloid headlines, and movie scenes extolling the importance of physical appearance and conformity.”
—Marianne E. Neifert (20th century)
