This title's name is confusing, in light of the presence of [[Doctor Who (USA)]]. One alternative is to distinguish between the two American titles called ''Doctor Who'' by appending their first year of publication, as is standard practice in comics cataloguing. Hence, the name of this article would become [[Doctor Who (2008)]]. Please [[:Talk:Doctor Who (USA)|click here to add your comments to the discussion]].

* I agree that since there's now an original comic book series out through IDW (unlike the earlier release which were all reprints) if anything it would make more sense to call this article Doctor Who (USA). I think the best idea is to rename the other article Doctor Who (Marvel Comics) - or Marvel US - and keep this as Doctor Who (IDW). Use the publisher name rather than the year of release as someone searching for this info is more likely to know the publisher. [[User:23skidoo|23skidoo]] 23:41, 9 June 2008 (UTC) |
