October 12th, 2022 - 4:49pmI wonder if it will include the Daleks vs the Martians strip which featured Cushing’s Dr who, from the DWM spring special.
Bookcollector
October 12th, 2022 - 5:54pmThat one is mentioned as being in. It says a Peter cushing story is included and as this covers the period up to children of the Revolution then it is presumably daleks vs the martians that is in this one.
Sons of Skaro
October 12th, 2022 - 4:43pmWOW! I love that cover.
Imperials are my favourite Daleks.
Coleman
October 12th, 2022 - 7:57pmI think the White and Gold colour scheme Daleks as to be my favourite aswell.
Coleman
October 12th, 2022 - 7:59pmBlimey, that SWD as seen better days, you can’t even tell it once was White and Gold.

October 13th, 2022 - 12:08pmThis dalek and the death daleks are my favourite design
Sons of Skaro
October 14th, 2022 - 10:40amDeath is also a favourite of mine, as well as the Dalek Supreme From planet.

October 12th, 2022 - 4:30pmWhich stories are featured in this volume please?
Bookcollector
October 12th, 2022 - 6:01pmNot confirmed but it seems to be…
Bringer of darkness (2nd)
Up above the gods (6th)
Emperor of the daleks (7th)
Fire and brimstone (8th)
Children of the Revolution (8th)
Daleks versus the martians (cushing)
Other potential material is the dalek one page strips that continued the 60’s dalek strip and the latest cushing strip but I’m not sure if they will be included.

October 12th, 2022 - 4:02pmAnother even more gorgeous cover !

October 12th, 2022 - 3:36pmWill this be available from WHSmiths?
David Havers
October 12th, 2022 - 5:51pmThe first volume is already in my local WH smiths. So I would expect the next one will be also.

October 12th, 2022 - 3:08pmAm loving these covers!

October 8th, 2022 - 3:29pmWill there be a 3rd. Volume? I’m not really au fait with the Dalek Stories from DWM, as I only purchased the odd mag intermittently over the years.
Dave
October 9th, 2022 - 8:49pmNo, I don’t think so. There hasn’t been a Dalek strip in DWM since the eighth Doctor days.

October 10th, 2022 - 4:38pmOh, that’s a pity…
Bookcollector
October 11th, 2022 - 9:33amThe only other dalek material is the follow up strips to the sixties dalek strip and the latest cushing strip. So unless they have renegotiated the rights for the cushing movie adaptation there probably won’t be enough to do a third. Unless the 2nd includes the rest of the material we’ll not get a complete set of strips otherwise
@thepinkphonebox
October 7th, 2022 - 7:10pmDave, I think there is enough for a second Jodie book – it would likely include The Piggybackers (4 parts/32pp), The White Dragon (4 parts/32 pp), The Forest Bride (2 parts/12pp), It’s Behind You! (1 part/6pp), Hydra’s Gate (4 parts/24pp), Fear Of The Future (1 part/6pp) and The Everlasting Summer (4 parts/24pp), plus Monstrous Beauty (9th Dr, 3 parts/32pp) and Dr. Who & The Mechonoids (Movie Dr, 1 part/6pp) – that covers all the strips in DWM from issue 549 to 583.
Dave
October 9th, 2022 - 8:44pmThanks! Weird then that it’s not yet announced.
Bookcollector
October 7th, 2022 - 9:15amIt’s not the adaptation but an original strip printed in the magazine for a Peter cushing special issue. The story was by Alan barnes and called daleks versus the martians.
Bookcollector
October 7th, 2022 - 9:16amOh, it’s from 1996 by the way
Chris Howarth
October 7th, 2022 - 11:10amWith nice art by Lee Sullivan.
David Minter
October 7th, 2022 - 3:21pmAh, I’d never heard of that comic strip before. I always did like the Peter Cushing Dalek universe. Most Who fans don’t like the Dalek movies, but, taken as their own separate universe, I have a soft spot for them. Particularly the 2nd one.
David Minter
October 7th, 2022 - 1:22amI’m guessing the Peter Cushing story is the comic adaptation of the Doctor Who And The Daleks movie that came out from Dell Comics, I think it was? It got reprinted in a Doctor Who Classic Comics about 30 years ago.
Bookcollector
October 7th, 2022 - 10:28amPanini may not have the rights to reprint the adaptation now. It was something like 1994 when they printed it and the deal will have been either for a single printing or for a limited time period which will have lapsed by now. The 1996 story and the more recent one are original pieces not subject to the complicated rights concerning the two movies.
Anonymous
October 6th, 2022 - 10:19pmThought a comic strip adaptation of the first Cushing Dalek movie had previously been published in ‘Classic Comics’ some years back, but this says ‘never before collected’ (whatever that means) so wondering if it’s something new?
Bookcollector
October 6th, 2022 - 8:19pmOrdered! Have most of the stories (presumably bringer of darkness, up above the gods, emperor of the daleks, and the two Paul mcgann stories) but I don’t have the Cushing one so I’m happy to get this. Wish they would release the next Jodie book though!
Dave
October 7th, 2022 - 4:26pmDo they have enough material for the next Jodie book, given the strip-less days in lockdown and the reduced page count?
Interesting thought; what do we think is going to happen with the DWM strip if Ncuti really doesn’t appear until 2024? Will Jodie Whittaker’s Doctor carry on until then? With the magazine’s focus on the show’s past rather than present, I can see them doing a run of past Doctor strips for the 60th anniversary as an interim. Or if there is a Doctor between Jodie and Ncuti, will he get a strip run for a while?
Bookcollector
October 7th, 2022 - 7:21pmThere is enough for another Jodie volume. Personally I think Jodie should just continue until ncuti arrives properly. Give her a good 60th anniversary comic strip to fill in next year with along with other Jodie stories.
