==Overview==
'''Doctor Who (IDW)''' originally referred to just one title:  ''Doctor Who'' (2008).  However, IDW have since published a number of titles, all of which can in some sense be said to be "''Doctor Who'' (IDW)". This list seeks to distinguish titles precisely by their [[wikipedia:indicia (publishing)|indicia]] titles, according to the custom of American comic book cataloguers.  Thus, ''Doctor Who'' (IDW) may refer to any one of a number of comic book titles published in the [[United States]].
* '''Doctor Who''', from [[IDW Publishing]], is a USA only title building on the success of the new-Who television series.
==Named simply ''Doctor Who''==
* Unlike earlier USA Doctor Who comics this new title featured all-new, full colour comic strip action for the Tenth Doctor (and [[Martha Jones]]) from some of America's top artists and colourists, as well as providing new cover artwork.
*[[Doctor Who (2008)|''Doctor Who'' (2008)]] — also known as ''Agent Provacoteur'', starring the [[Tenth Doctor]] and [[Martha Jones]]
* It was one of two titles launched in the 2007/2008 period (the other being ''[[Doctor Who Classics]]'' launched in December 2007, and featured the reprinting and re-colouring of the Fourth Doctor's comic strip adventures from the pages of ''[[Doctor Who Magazine]]'').  The first issue's publication was delayed until February 2008.
*[[Doctor Who (2009)|''Doctor Who'' (2009)]] — also known as ''Doctor Who'' Ongoing, starring the Tenth and [[Eleventh Doctor]]s
* Each issue regularly features some 32 full colour quality printed pages of which 22 featured an original adventure, next issue page, IDWords (news and interviews from IDW Publishing), and 9 pages promoting other titles.
==Reprint magazines==
* The first six-issue mini-series includes some references to the televised series, such as the cat people from [[New Earth]] who appear in several issues. This first arc was written by longtime Doctor Who fan/writer and new-series script editor [[Gary Russell]].
*''[[Doctor Who Classics]]'' — in which IDW reprinted material from ''[[Doctor Who Magazine]]'', chiefly starring the [[Fourth Doctor]]
* The first mini-series' six issues do not carry episode/chapter titles, making this one of the first elements of the Doctor Who franchise to not use story titles.
*''[[Doctor Who Classics|Doctor Who Classics Series 2]]'' — in which IDW reprinted material from ''Doctor Who Magazine'', chiefly starring the  [[Fifth Doctor]]
* Although published long after the character left the series, [[Martha Jones]] appears in the initial story arc and ''[[The Forgotten]]'', as well as several of the one-shots.
*''[[Grant Morrison's Doctor Who]]'' — in which IDW reprinted ''Doctor Who Magazine'' storylines by [[Grant Morrison]], chiefly starring the [[Sixth Doctor|Sixth]] and [[Seventh Doctor|Seventh Doctors]]
