Additional details[[edit] | [edit source]]

  • No year was shown on this cover of this issue, which was priced at 60p (UK).
  • The cover shows Turlough and the Fifth Doctor from TV: Mawdryn Undead.
  • This issue includes a letter from a young Nicholas Pegg forcefully objecting to the idea of a female Doctor.
  • With a cover tag stating 'Regeneration: 1st New Look Issue', it is somewhat surprising for this revamped look that the designer is not credited.
  • The changes are quite difficult to spot but include:
- splitting the comic strip up into two sections of 4 pages (front and back)
- the use of red (not black ink) for some of the captions and photographs, some of which are "playfully" edited!
- removing the colour centrespread pages (even if they were often used for B&W or even advertising)
- increasing the page count to 44 and the price (again) to 60p!
