Notes[[edit] | [edit source]]
- Entertainment Weekly's article exclusively announcing The Road to the Thirteenth Doctor included a textless version of Cover A by Robert Hack bar the header, BBC and Doctor Who logos, and The Tenth Doctor subtitle, with an "Entertainment Exclusive" watermark in the bottom-left corner.[3] Other sites reporting the news would use either this version,[4] or a version without Entertainment Weekly's watermark.[5][6][7] This textless version is available from Titan Comics' webpage for this issue, as well as textless versions of Covers B and C by Will Brooks and Christopher Jones respectively.[1]
- A SyfyWire news exclusive had a preview of this issue, along with an interview with James Peaty.[2] The news article has since been removed.
- It was announced on 13 July 2018[8][9] that there would be an exclusive cover of this issue for San Diego Comic Con 2018 by Kelly Yates, with Jody Houser and him signing copies at Titan Comics' booth #5537.[8][10][11][12][13][14]
- Blogtor Who's article on Titan Comics' plans for New York Comic Con 2018 included a version of the San Diego Comic Con 2018 exclusive cover that had larger pixel dimensions, was more saturated, and included a barcode, but with slightly pixelated text.[15]
- Rachael Stott's character design of the Thirteenth Doctor was included with this issue. It was used again for the Gallifreyan High Council of Retailers cover variant of Doctor Who: The Thirteenth Doctor #1.
