* This release was originally slated for release on [[ | [[File:The Many Doctors Collection art cards.jpg|thumb|The art cards utilising the art of [[Will Brooks]]; [[Alex Ronald]]; and [[Neil Edwards]] and [[Ivan Nunes]], respectively.]] | ||
* Given the branding on the cover, this set appears to have been planned to release under [[Titan Comics]]' ''[[Doctor Who (2020)|Doctor Who Comic]]'' series. This is correlated by [[Paul Cornell|Paul Cornell's]] GoodReads blog referring to it as ''Doctor Who Comic: The Many Doctors Collection''.<ref name=":1">[https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/63341.Paul_Cornell/blog?page=8 ''Paul Cornell's Blog'', page 8] at [https://www.goodreads.com/ goodreads.com].</ref> | |||
* The publisher's summary of this release is available from The Doctor Who Site's Merchandise Guide's article,<ref name=":2">[https://merchandise.thedoctorwhosite.co.uk/titan-comics-four-doctors-lost-dimension-hardcover-boxed-set/ ''Titan Comics Four Doctors Lost Dimension Hardcover Boxed Set'' article] at [https://merchandise.thedoctorwhosite.co.uk/ merchandise.thedoctorwhosite.co.uk/].</ref> Forbidden Planet's page,<ref name=":5" /> and Amazon's listing for it.<ref name=":3" /> Titan Comics' website and social media has no news articles or posts on this collection in any capacity at all. | |||
* This release was originally slated for release on either [[4 October (releases)|4 October]] [[2022 (releases)|2022]], according to [[Nick Abadzis]]' blog,<ref name=":4">[https://www.nickabadzis.com/blog/2022/5/11/many-doctors-doctor-who-box-set ''"Many Doctors" Doctor Who Box Set'' blog post], posted 11 May 2022, from [https://www.nickabadzis.com/ Nick Abadzis' website].</ref> or on [[5 October (releases)|5 October]] 2022, according to Paul Cornell's blog on GoodReads<ref name=":1" /> and Go Collect,<ref name=":0" /> before being delayed, or as Go Collect labelled, 'Cancelled'.<ref name=":0">[https://blog.gocollect.com/titan-comics-extended-forecast-for-08-30-2023/ Titan Comics Extended Forecast for 08/30/2023] at [https://gocollect.com/ gocollect.com].</ref> | |||

* The boxset art uses [[Will Brooks]]' Cover B for ''[[The Lost Dimension (comic story)|The Lost Dimension]]'' [[TLD 1|#1]]. | |||
* From the packshot image, it appears that the graphic novels of ''[[Four Doctors (graphic novel)|Four Doctors]]'', ''[[The Lost Dimension: Book One]]'', and ''[[The Lost Dimension: Book Two]]'', may have received unique covers for this collection, as their spines use [[Jeremy Enecio]]'s [[Doctor Who Evergreen (illustration)|''Doctor Who Evergreen'']] illustrations done for [[BBC Studios]] to depict the [[Ninth Doctor|Ninth]], [[Tenth Doctor|Tenth]], [[Eleventh Doctor|Eleventh]], and [[Twelfth Doctor|Twelfth Doctors]]. Whether the covers would have received them or not is indeterminable however, as no other promotional images of this set exist. | |||
* According to The Doctor Who Merchandise Guide's article,<ref name=":2" /> Forbidden Planet's page,<ref name=":5" /> the Amazon listing,<ref name=":3" /> and Nick Abadzis' blog,<ref name=":4" /> this collection would have included three art cards. These art cards are able to be seen on Forbidden Planet's page for the collection.<ref name=":5" /> They use Will Brooks' Cover B for ''The Lost Dimension'' #1; [[Alex Ronald|Alex Ronald's]] Cover A for ''The Lost Dimension'' [[TLD 8|#8: ''Omega'']]; and [[Neil Edwards]] and [[Ivan Nunes]]' Cover A for ''[[Four Doctors (comic story)|Four Doctors]]'' [[FD 1|#1]]. | |||
