Doctor Who The Essential Guide #10 Robots
Robots have been an essential part of Doctor Who for six decades.
The latest issue of Panini’s lavish Doctor Who bookazine includes features on classic robot stories such as “Galaxy 4,” “Pyramids of Mars,” and “The Robots of Death.”
Other highlights include interviews with the actors, writers and directors who helped to create some of these episodes.
Packed with exclusive content and rare images, this 116-page bookazine will be a must-have for fans in the days leading up to the new series of Doctor Who.

February 19th, 2017 - 3:05pmI quite like the cover. Except for the Handbot that it. That’s really bland.

February 19th, 2017 - 12:39pmI had a feeling they,d do robots next, it covers a lot from the 60s to present day, i can,t imagine much they can cover next in this series of bookazines.

March 20th, 2017 - 5:23pmThey could do The Essential William Hartnell Through Peter Capaldi which includes Every Non-Who Role from the start of each of their careers, a photo from each series and movie, a short biography and some interesting articles written by fellow cast members. Then a nicely designed Doctor who checklist of episodes written on one page, a photo of every variation of their outfits during their tenure, an alternate dvd Cover or 2 for you to cut out and replace on your DVD collection maybe some painted artwork or some cool fan art gallery for a couple of pages. The entire Big Finish checklist for each doctor.

February 17th, 2017 - 10:01amI think the covers are getting somewhat worse
The 50 years editions were neatly designed
Then the first few issues of this were good looking too
But this just seems to be a few bits cobbled together.
