The World Shapers was the second of two graphic novels collecting the Sixth Doctor's run in Doctor Who Magazine. It was published in 2007 stories, and — unlike other reprints, such as those in IDW's Doctor Who Classics — featured pristine digital restoration of the original monochromatic art.
Publisher's summary
CLASSIC COMIC STRIPS FROM THE PAGES OF DOCTOR WHO MAGAZINE!
More thrilling adventures in time and space for the Sixth Doctor, Peri and their penguin pal Frobisher in this concluding volume of their complete comic strip run from the pages of Doctor Who Magazine!
This book features the following digitally restored stories, reprinted in their original episodic format for the first time: EXODUS, REVELATION!, GENESIS!, NATURE OF THE BEAST, TIME BOMB, SALAD DAZE, CHANGES, PROFITS OF DOOM!, THE GIFT and THE WORLD SHAPERS!
These incredible escapades take our heroes from a world invaded by the terrible Cybermen to a planet obsessed with jazz, via a surreal journey to the heart of the TARDIS itself. But it is on the planet Marinus, a world the Doctor once visited long ago, that he faces his greatest peril – one that even the all-powerful Time Lords refuse to aid him in combating …
Featuring stunning artwork from JOHN RIDGWAY plus scripts from the legendary GRANT MORRISON (Batman:Arkham Asylum, Doom Patrol, The Invisibles), JAMIE DELANO (Hellblazer), SIMON FURMAN (Transformers), MIKE COLLINS (Star Trek) and ALAN McKENZIE (2000 AD).

Notes
- This is the second of two collections featuring the run of Sixth Doctor stories from the pages of Doctor Who Magazine. It contains one hundred eighty-six high quality black and white printed pages and a new cover by Mike Collins and is priced at £15.99 (UK).
- IDW 's reprints of the Classic comic strips from Doctor Who Magazine have yet to include any of the strips in this graphic novel. After the story arc of 'Kane's Story ', 'Abel's Story ', 'The Warrior's Story ' and 'Frobisher's Story ', the next available issue begins with 'A Cold Day in Hell ' - the first Seventh Doctor strip. IDW did reprint 'Changes ' and 'The World Shapers ' in the 'Grant Morrison's Doctor Who ' mini series.
