Comic Maker was a comic generation tool and game introduced in April 2007. Users were led through a game where they could submit an image and then build a comic around the image or character.[1]
For the very first time, fans of the show will be able to create their own Doctor Who adventure and bring it to life. This Comic Maker will allow fans to interact with every aspect of the exciting and magical world of Doctor Who. This is your chance to be the Doctor's companion and take on the Daleks.
Originally user generated comics could be submitted for publishing online. These comics were subject to moderators who would on occasion edit or remove images to make the submitted comics adhere to the Comic Maker's "house rules". [2] However following approximately a year online, a relaunch of Comic Maker occurred on 16 December 2008. The changes were that comics could be printed and that comics could no longer be submitted for publishing online.
