Torchwood comic stories
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
Torchwood comic stories appeared in Torchwood Magazine and online, as well as their own comic series published by Titan Publishing Group.
Overview
- Torchwood Magazine features its own licensed Torchwood spin-off comic series in a way similar to the various Doctor Who magazines have their own spin-off comic series. The stories are aimed at an age similar to the television series audience and are adult in nature.
- To celebrate the repeat of Series 2 of Torchwood on the UK channel Watch, Torchwood Magazine commissioned an exclusive comic for their website.
- In August 2010 Titan Publishing Group launched Torchwood The Official Comic, which follows the collected comic strip story/ graphic novel Rift War!
- Of particular note is the fact that both John Barrowman (Jack Harkness) and Gareth David-Lloyd (Ianto Jones) have contributed to the comic stories, with Barrowman co-writing Captain Jack and the Selkie and David-Lloyd writing Shrouded — in both cases with their own screen character leading the story. The only other instance of such an occurrence is Colin Baker (Sixth Doctor) co-writing the graphic novel The Age of Chaos.
