Good news Doctor Who fans, in
conjunction with Titan Comics, the BBC has announced that a brand new Doctor
Who comic book will be published later on this year, and that it will feature
the tenth, eleventh and twelfth doctors.
Press Release:
In the universe of Doctor Who
regenerations bring not only a new Doctor but often a fresh look and feel to
the series and BBC Worldwide is bringing that same approach to Doctor Who
comics as it signs a new deal with Titan Comics. The deal will open up the world
of Doctor Who and provide fans with new stand alone adventures featuring the
Tenth Doctor, Eleventh Doctor and after the new series launch, the Twelfth
Doctor. Creative and production teams will be announced in the coming weeks and
the first comic books will be released in 2014.
The Doctor Who Christmas special,
The Time of the Doctor, saw Matt Smith’s Eleventh Doctor regenerate into the
Twelfth Doctor, played by Peter Capaldi. The next season is now in production
and will premiere in 2014. In 2013, Doctor Who set ratings and social media
records for BBC AMERICA.
Doctor Who is sold to over 200
territories across the world and last year was awarded the Guinness World
Record for the largest TV drama simulcast ever after the 50th Anniversary
special was broadcast to 98 countries at the same time as well in thousands of
cinemas across the globe.
Titan Comics is the comics and
graphic novel division of global publishing giant Titan, a pioneer that has
proven itself over three decades with internationally-recognized brands such as
James Bond and Sherlock Holmes, as well as creator-owned successes like Tank
Girl, Lenore, and Death Sentence. Titan's magazine division is the largest
publisher of licensed entertainment properties in the US.
