Overview

  • Doctor Who from IDW Publishing, is a USA only title, building on the success of the new-Who television series.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • Each issue regularly featured some 32 full colour quality printed pages of which 22 featured re-coloured comic strip adventures, next issue page, IDWords (news and interviews from IDW Publishing), and 9 pages promoting other titles.
  • The initial issues follow a story arc and include some references to the televised series, such as the cat people from New Earth who appear in several issues.
  • The individual issues do not carry episode/chapter titles, making this one of the first elements of the Doctor Who franchise to not use story titles.
