Torchwood comic stories

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 this 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 John co-writing Captain Jack and the Selkie and Gareth 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.
