Doctorwho Twopage
From the tone of his email, Tony Lee was very excited about this. We guess some others will be, too, although it whooshed right over our head.

The double page splash from issue #6 of Doctor Who: The Forgotten, out January 21st (IDW) that I’ve been talking about for a year. Art by Kelly Yates.

  1. In response to Sean and Gianco…

    Pia Guerra had to drop the book due to the death of someone close to her. She did issues 1, 2, and 5, with Stefano Martino picking up 3 and Kelly Yates picking up 4 and 6.

  2. It’s a real shame that Pia Guerra had to leave the project; her pencils for issues 1 and 2 were stunning. Still, the series itself is very well written and a treat for Doctor Who fans. If you have even the slightest interest in the good Doctor, you should pick up the first issue and see if it grabs you.

  3. A fun double-page spread, but Kelly Yates really needs to work on the likenesses of Patrick Troughton, Jon Pertwee and Peter Davison. Troughton’s Doctor, in particular, is barely recognizable.

    I’m saddened that Pia Guerra had to leave the series. She was doing brilliant work and complemented Tony Lee’s script perfectly. Hopefully she’ll come back for a one-shot or another mini-series somewhere down the line.

  4. I think I’d rather read a comic where I can recognise The Doctor than one where I can recognise Jon Pertwee.

    I mean, obviously I’m not including THE NEW JON PERTWEE ADVENTURES in that. Obviously.

    //Oo/\

  5. I’m not an expert in things Doctor, but I’m pretty sure that dissing Pertwee qualifies you for a public stoning.

  6. I love Jon Pertwee, Heidi. From scarecrow to Spottyman and everything in between.

    AND I DON’T MIND ADMITTING IT.

    I…I also miss Willie Rushton. I prefer to think that, when he dies, his energy split into two beings: Nick Frost, and Bill Bailey.

    But I do mind admitting that.

    //Oo/\

  7. Getting character likenesses correctly can be a real challenge for most artists in this business. As an artist, I’m loathe to criticize a peer’s work publicly. As a Who fan, I … well, never mind.
