More USA Doctor Who Comics

IDW Publishing have revealed plans to release a further Doctor Who themed comic in the USA after the popular success of the previous Doctor Who Comic released by IDW titled The Forgotten. The Forgotten is an exclusive IDW comic which features all incarnations of the Doctor to date.

Not much has been confirmed about the new comic except the following;

In July, IDW launches a monthly Doctor Who series. Writer Tony Lee said that he had “already spoken to the BBC” and presented them with “a massive six thousand word pitch.” The monthly will be like a season of the television series, he said. There will be new companions, because “if you do a new Martha story everybody knows how it ends. With new companions, you can do things people don’t know.” Although there will be “a lot of new stuff,” readers will also be treated to many old races and characters. “Al Davidson, a great artist, is doing the first two issues,” involving 1927 Hollywood and Charlie Chaplin. “Best fun I’ve ever had,” said Lee, who joked that he broke in with IDW by renting “a house opposite their office and watching them with night-vision goggles.”

Tony Lee is the main writer of the currently untitled upcoming Doctor Who comic and was recently reviewed at ComicCon by RedShirt about working on the new comic. This interview is available to read here at the RedShirt website.
