Well, Gundam and Star Trek don't take place on a present day earth, so they're out. Don't see the problem with The Doctor eithed. I dunno. I don't see an argument, and they ARE an IDW comic which is a company called out in the first post

The Doctor is a key component to time travel or even Booster Gold. It doesn't seem so far fetched to have the Enterprise turn up in space, they just had a cross over with Green Lantern even. With the right CS all of your above points could apply to them as well.
