The World Shapers (graphic novel)
- You may be looking for the titular comic story.
The World Shapers was the ninth of Panini Publishing's reprints of Doctor Who Magazine comic strips and the second of two collecting the Sixth Doctor's run. It was published in 2008.

The strips included in this collection were from the back half of the Sixth Doctor's regular run in DWM, and co-starred Peri and Frobisher.
