The Psychadelic Shop According to Jessica Willamy , The Psychadelic Shop , also known locally as The Head Shop , was " the symbolic head " of the Haight , providing information and materiel necessary to take whatever recreational drug one desired . It was a particular proponent of LSD . Located directly underneath the offices of the " San Francisco Oracle " , at the exact corner of Haight and Ashbury Street s in San Francisco , it was clearly a central experience to the lives of local residents . Ron and Jay Thelin , who also bankrolled the " Oracle " , opened it in 1966 . The Second Doctor , Ben and Polly visited the shop in January 1967 , at which time the Doctor was particularly interested in various bong s and pipes that were on offer . ( PROSE : " Wonderland " ) Behind the scenes . According to ' s obituary for Ron Thelin , the Doctor ' s visit to The Head Shop must be viewed as a way in which the DWU is different from real life . The real Thelin closed the store on 6 October 1966 due to the criminalisation of LSD , and he gave away his entire inventory that evening . Thus the shop would not have been open for the Doctor to peruse in January 1967 , when " Wonderland " is largely set .

Seventh Doctor comic stories Somewhat after the broadcast of the " Doctor Who " television story " Time and the Rani " , " Doctor Who Magazine " s Seventh Doctor comic stories began . While the cancellation of the " Doctor Who " television series was undoubtedly bad news for Sylvester McCoy ' s longevity in the role , it was an unexpected boon to the Seventh Doctor ' s comic life . With no new Doctor on the horizon , the Seventh Doctor lived on in the pages of " DWM " for years after the transmission of McCoy ' s final regular appearance on TV in " Survival " in 1989 . In fact , the Seventh Doctor became the first incarnation of the Doctor to be in two regular comic publications simultaneously . Pre - figuring the Tenth Doctor ' s later " double - duty " in " DWM " and " Doctor Who Adventures " , the Seventh Doctor was , briefly , in both " DWM " and " The Incredible Hulk Presents " , another Marvel publication . Several different approaches were taken by " DWM " during this era . At first , they told stories which had no obvious connection to the television series . Frobisher briefly ushered in the new Doctor ' s era , before scampering off . The Doctor then travelled around either on his own or with one - off companions . After the television series ended , and the Virgin New Adventures series began , there was an effort to try to fit the comic stories into the novels ' continuity . This period , though , came to a definitive end when " DWM " killed off Ace in " Ground Zero " — an act that deliberately returned " DWM " to its own , separate continuity . By this stage , however , " DWM " had taken the editorial decision to consider the Seventh Doctor as a " past " incarnation . They began to use the comic space to tell stories of the other incarnations , which gave modern artists and writers the chance to feature Doctors and companions who hadn ' t really been a part of the " DWM " strip before . Thus , though the Seventh Doctor had a much longer reign in comics than television , it was a few years shorter than the gap between " Survival " and the 1996 " Doctor Who " TV movie , where the Seventh Doctor regenerated into the Eighth on - screen . By contrast , the Eighth Doctor ' s era ended only when the Ninth Doctor ' s began in the 2005 episode " Rose " .
