Further Information
- Published every two weeks on a Thursday this issue had a cover price of £1.99 (UK). The first three issues were all tagged as NEW and featured a foil logo.
- The subscription offer for this issue was a saving of over £6 (UK). No other incentive offered.
- This issues free gift of a TARDIS clock was selotaped to the cover; some issues were missing the “Police Public Call Box” sticker above the TARDIS door.
- Next issues free gift is named as a radio (unless you buy your copy at Tesco’s in which case you’ll get the TARDIS clock from last issue having got the radio last time!).
- The need to offer an alternative free gift is believed to be attributed to Tesco’s needing to re-plan their display of the magazine because of its bulky size.
- The TARDIS noise “VWORP! VWORP!” in the comic strip is an established sound used in the Doctor Who Magazine’s Comic Strips and originating in the Target Books range of novelisations.
- This cover as well as that of DWA Issue 5 were expanded and used at the Doctor Who Exhibition in Cardiff
