Monster Marvel Memories
Monster Marvel Memories was a compilation of selected works by Tim Quinn and Dicky Howett, with accompanying commentary throughout from the pair. It mainly focused on their collaborations for Marvel Comics (as implied by the title) but also covered pieces from before and after this time as well, including some of Quinn and Howett's solo endeavours.
The book reprinted several strips from the Doctor Who? series, which ran for thirteen years in Marvel's Doctor Who Magazine, in addition to a small amount of previously-unpublished material of relevance to the Doctor Who universe.
