Panini UK has announced a collection of BBC's Doctor Who Adventures comic book strips from 2006, highlighting the company's deep history with the franchise. The new project shifts focus to the strips from the magazine at the time, which were mostly self-contained one-shots, shorter and lighter than the multi-part epics typical of Doctor Who Magazine or Titan Comics' line.
Panini UK has announced a collection of BBC 's Doctor Who Adventures comic book strips from 2006, highlighting the company's deep history with the franchise. The new project shifts focus to the strips from the magazine at the time, which were mostly self-contained one-shots, shorter and lighter than the multi-part epics typical of Doctor Who Magazine or Titan Comics' line.
The stories try to replicate the fun, adventure, and excitement of the show's noughties revival era. The first collected volume is scheduled for release on September 1st, but a special variant cover edition, drawn by veteran artist Lee Sullivan, has been made available exclusively through the Panini website from August 18th. The new variant cover depicts the Doctor alongside dinosaurs. The strips remain appealing due to their unique blend of humor and adventure.
One story sees the Doctor and Rose on a World War I battlefield, manipulated by alien 'War Freaks' - military historians observing conflicts. Another tale features giant monsters whose tears turn out to be full of antibiotics, curing a local disease. While aimed at a younger audience originally, the collections are a perfect time capsule of the era's pop culture zeitgeist.
Founder of Bleeding Cool, Ed Hammond, encouraged older fans not to dismiss the collections, 'There are so many little gems in there to enjoy. They're a really lovely read. I thoroughly recommend them.
