Hey everyone,
How would you tell the final Cybermen story?

The cybermen never die out, they come back like a bad penny, emerging from their various "tombs" time and time again, they eventually vanish along with the rest of the universe as it fades nothing their last story is that of the universe.

I would have it set far into the future, well beyond the end of the universe and the start of a new one. The Cybermen would again be trying to convert everybody into their race but this time, the Doctor would fail and every other living being would be one of them.

A Cyber-man develops a fault in his processing, and develops creativity (in the same randomized way organisms evolved), and begins to lead the Cyber-race to victory. Only it soon becomes apparent that all this power for a logical race has developed from illogical randomized thought.
Realizing the contradiction, the Cyber-man goes insane, and starts collecting every member of the Cyber-race and plugging them into a massive computer, so he can use the gestalt processing power of all their minds to figure it out how this can be. He never emerges from the computer again.

I don't really have a firm story behind it, but I think this theoretical "final" story for the Cybermen should be set at the end, or close to the end, of the universe. Definitely draw some parallels to Spare Parts and the necessity of the Cybermen for Mondas' survival. Perhaps have a group of humans who believe the only way to survive in the harshness of the end of the universe is to become Cybermen - maybe to escape the reality of their situation by eliminating their humanity. Of course, they should fail at this goal and the message of the story should be that humanity, in the end, will triumph, even when the end of the universe is upon them and there is no hope.
