It’s starting to make me think twice about picking a copy up.

On the crossword, the clue for 2 across is ACTUALLY the clue for 5 across. 2 across is non-existent: it’s only 2 down.

February 2nd, 2022 - 12:40pmJust received my issue.
Haven’t properly read it yet but I’ve seen the “exclusive DWM BIG big finish news”. It involves the return of a range that hasn’t been seen since 2008 and said range appears to be entering “New Series” territory with 2 boxsets released later this year…

Do it regular, put it away to read later then forget all about it.

February 1st, 2022 - 7:33amHonestly not what I was expecting but it’s a not bad cover but I cant wait to see what the new adventure is and it will probably have something on season 22 because of the recent anouncment

January 31st, 2022 - 5:19pmHi – do anyone know when/if the DWM Comic Strips will be continued in collected Form – it’s a Long Time since mistress of Chaos

February 1st, 2022 - 2:44pmWell it says new strip starts this issue on the cover?

February 1st, 2022 - 6:13pmI am 99% certain they will continue to release them in collected form. They need to have made so many pages to justify a collected graphic novel and as they have had to take multiple breaks during the pandemic this means its taking longer than usual to reach the number of pages needed.

January 31st, 2022 - 4:24pmBooboo, do you think these will be the s11-s12 rittenhouse trading cards? And if so, do you think they will be released soon?
Gareth Pugh
January 31st, 2022 - 7:07pmThe Trading Cards feature is the latest in the series of articles where they interview fans about Who items they collect – there have been a few, and a future one is about collecting figurines. I’m not sure that strap line on the cover is about news of new releases as such.

February 10th, 2022 - 7:56pmIt does briefly cover the Rittenhouse S11/12 Set they are planning, with a couple of pictures. What they failed to mention was, that this is a US Company. The similar 2 or 3 sets previous were also a US release only. Which mean’s importing Boxes from the States will cost an arm & a leg as usual. Another set that will mostly be out of reach to a lot of Collectors.

February 11th, 2022 - 1:03pmI thought I read somewhere that they were planning to release these worldwide or atleast in Europe too?

February 11th, 2022 - 4:14pmThat would certainly be a first for Rittenhouse? I have never seen their products released anywhere but the US. I used to collect Rittenhouse Star Trek cards & always had to Order from the US at a premium. If any were imported into the UK, again you had to pay a premium for them.

January 31st, 2022 - 12:03pmAlways look forward to the DWM coming out.
I’m sure a few People will like this cover with having Sixth on.
Even though he’s not one of the most popular Doctors.
Wasn’t keen on his stories when they first aired but I really enjoy watching them now.
Coleman
January 31st, 2022 - 12:06pmI suppose him popping in up on the cover after such a long time is to coincide with the release of Season 22.
Coleman
January 31st, 2022 - 12:17pmJuly 2015, last time Colin was on the cover, thought it was quite awhile ago.
Book collector
January 31st, 2022 - 2:22pmI’m still not keen on Colin’s stories even after all this time, (38 years… wow) but I always liked colin himself.

January 31st, 2022 - 2:23pmIt’s the new CD release rather than season 22 Coleman
TimelordTim
January 31st, 2022 - 3:52pmDidn’t he refuse to do DWM interviews and so only appears on cover when he is interviewed via Big Finish. He was against the DWM ranking lists of Doctors and episodes as it always hurt when he and his episodes came low down or last (very understandable, I really like him myself). I think I read all that in the interview via Big Finish from his last cover appearance!
Coleman
January 31st, 2022 - 5:15pmYeah Tim, you’ve got that copy on your collections the last time Colin, appeared on the cover of DWM.
