Please excuse the shameless pluggery, but I thought you might be interested in our new fanzine.
Vworp Vworp! takes a loving, affectionate look at Marvel/Panini’s
Doctor Who comic strips and the magazine that spawned them –
Doctor Who Magazine. It's a not-for-profit, full-colour glossy 80-page perfect-bound fanzine that is packed with plenty of interesting
Doctor Who comics background and other material. It includes an interview with founding editor
Dez Skinn, discussing the birth of Doctor Who Weekly; and a guide to the creation of the first Marvel
Who strip,
The Iron Legion, with in-depth interviews with
Dave Gibbons and
Pat Mills and contributions from
Dez Skinn and
David Lloyd.
Also a wide range of writers celebrate the thirtieth anniversary of the launch of Doctor Who Weekly. For a full list of features and the many, many contributors - including
Mike Collins, Andrew Pixley, John Freeman, Scott Gray, Martin Geraghty, Clayton Hickman, Tim Quinn & Dicky Howett, Roger Langridge, Dan McDaid, Nick Miller, Leighton Noyes, Alister Pearson, John Ridgway, Rob Shearman, Baxter Sullivan, Kev F Sutherland & Steve Noble, Ben Templesmith and
Ben Willsher (trust us, almost everyone who has ever been involved in
DWM comics has had some input into this one), head over to our website for the full list.
As if all that wasn't enough, our two covers also feature a set of transfers (yes, real transfers, just like the ones on Issue 1 of the
Weekly thirty years ago) specially drawn by
Paul Grist (with colours by the sublime
James Offredi), complete with a Dalek scene to apply them to!
