Title: Doctor Who Weekly/Monthly/Magazine
Post by: pert on 22 February, 2014, 08:35:47 PM
Pat Mills, Alan Grant, Dave Gibbons, Mike McMahon, Steve Dillon and John Ridgeway all contributed to this and Brian Bolland did some concept art for it but what other script and art droids would you like to have seen do a take on the Whoniverse? I'd love to have seen what Bellardinelli, Gibson, Ezquearra, O'Neil would have made of it

...not to mention Grant Morrison, Dan Abnett, Mike Farmer, Adrian Salmon and David Roache. But yeah Dom Reardon, Henry Flint or Fraser Irving - it's almost artist-proof 2000AD-wise! An Edgington Who strip might do quite nicely.

Also, congratulations to Eddie Robson for being the latest to bridge the DW-2000AD gap, albeit from Big Finish audios.

He wrote 'Universal Monsters' in DWM 391-393 in 2008.

Ron Smith doing the Whoniverse would be good too!

Carlos Ezquerra could have repeated Johnny Alpha's haircut on Tom Baker era Dr. Who!

More McMahon after getting the Panini reprint book featuring the only story Mick produced. Also reckon Cam would've done a great Doctor too. David Roach, Arthur Ranson and John Burns (though I'm certain he must've done some in Look In).

Arthur Ranson did do one strip in DWM

Roach has been a regular inker on the strip for over a decade, making the work of inferior artists look so much better.

John Burns has two Doctor Who strips to his credit: 'Woden's Warriors' in TV Comic Annual 1976; and the first quarter or so of Marvel's 'The Age of Chaos' (written by Colin Baker, but still not quite terrible enough to be so-bad-its-good despite some outrageous dialogue...)

I'd love to see a collection of the pre DWW strips. I used to own two Dalek annuals (don't know what happened to them though), along with all the various and sundry comic outings I'm sure you could get a good couple of volumes of pre Marvel timelord action surely.

Panini must own the rights as they reprinted two Dalek comics recently.

My vote goes to a reprint of the back up strips.

Arthur Ranson drew a Sylvester McCoy/7th Doctor strip a number of years ago.

Does anyone know if it appears in any of the more modern Panini collections, Nemesis of the Daleks I'[m thinking? http://merchandise.thedoctorwhosite.co.uk/doctor-who-nemesis-of-the-daleks-graphic-novel/ (http://merchandise.thedoctorwhosite.co.uk/doctor-who-nemesis-of-the-daleks-graphic-novel/)? I don't recall it from 'A Cold Day in Hell' and I'm sure I would!

The monthly Doctor Who Classic Comics about 20 years ago did reprint some of the TV Comic and TV Action strips as well as the TV21 Dalek Chronicles
