The Dalek Project Graphic Novel
Doctor Who The Dalek Project
By Justin Richards
1917: The Great War is at its fiercest and most terrible.
But things are about to get even worse.
Armaments manufacturer Lord Hellcombe has a new secret weapon he believes will win the war.
But when the Doctor witnesses the final demonstration he begins to realize how much danger everyone is in: Lord Hellcombe claims to have invented the Dalek! Except, of course, that nothing is quite what it seems.
Now, the Doctor and his new friends must draw on every type of early 20th century technology and every element of human ingenuity and bravery if they are to discover the truth – and survive – to prevent the entire Western Front of World War One from becoming part of The Dalek Project!

Esterath
September 22nd, 2012 - 5:47pmIt’s amazing, especially the English style and tghe German style Daleks!
Give me a Dalek any day
September 6th, 2012 - 4:29pmMy pre-order copy arrived today! Very happy! 😀

September 8th, 2012 - 8:52amIs the art good?
That Dinosaur over there
September 9th, 2012 - 10:58amYes, it’s very good.
The story’s quite alright too. Not as good as The Only Good Dalek, but still quite strong. 🙂
Give me a Dalek any day
August 31st, 2012 - 8:09amNope! Definitely out next Thursday now! 😀
John Smith
August 2nd, 2012 - 10:32amThis sounds very much like a “what if” version of Victory of the Daleks.
Give me a Dalek any day
July 26th, 2012 - 4:06pmThe latest DWM claims this is being released 6th September. However, Amazon still have it listed for 26th September. 😕

July 5th, 2012 - 6:55pmThis has Time War Daleks… Asylum of the Daleks has Time War Daleks… the Anti-Time Device ad thing has Time War Daleks… TIME WAR DALEKS, MAKING A COMEBACK!!!!!
McGann is The Doctor.
July 23rd, 2012 - 6:14pmThat is the correct term for them, but you can also call them “Bronze Daleks”.
I like the design, and am more fond of it than EVER now that I’ve been annoyed at how pathetic and unthreatening the colourful design is.
McGann is The Doctor.
June 30th, 2012 - 11:25pmIt will be nice to have a GOOD Dalek story for once.
Ofcourse, the season opener is a Dalek story but it’s too early for me to say if it will be good or not. I reckon it will be called “Tomb of the Daleks”. 😉
Esterath
July 2nd, 2012 - 1:39pmYou do know it’s been confirmed as ‘Asylum of the Daleks’?
McGann is The Doctor.
July 23rd, 2012 - 6:16pmI found out afew weeks ago, yes. I was pretty close, but never expected it to be ASYLUM of the Daleks.
These must (possibly) be Daleks that have been defeated and imprisoned while alive, but who could do such a thing ? ❗ I’m intrigued

June 29th, 2012 - 8:26pmI am so pleased. Been waiting for this ever since the Dalek Handbook cane out, and read about it. Yes, originally envisaged as a 10th doctor story. And I am so glad the big plastic doll Daleks aren’t going to be in it, but Time War ones. But variants from the classic series would have suited as well. Great, great, great. That was the in my view truly horrific thing with the only good dalek: a story with lots of things from classic stories (think of for example the ogrons) but with these new daleks. That just didn’t fit very wel.

June 29th, 2012 - 11:23amhasn’t anyone realized it’s victory of the daleks with a few changes.

June 29th, 2012 - 6:20pmSee my comment earlier. 🙂
oscar

Bazinga
June 28th, 2012 - 5:04pmSeptember, I think?
Give me a Dalek any day
June 28th, 2012 - 5:27pmYes, it’s released 26th September. 🙂
Liason Ice
June 28th, 2012 - 7:52amIt would be interesting to see what the Time War Daleks are doing alive
jacondanjake
June 28th, 2012 - 2:29amSo they are releasing this. I saw an ad in a tenth doctor nsa only in that it showed the tenth doctor on the cover. Nice to see it come out. (By the way I’m doctorwhofan27 with a new email and name.)
Nathan
June 27th, 2012 - 8:20pmLooks quite cool. I may get this. Aren’t Amy and Rory in this though?
Commander Strax
June 28th, 2012 - 6:04pmi dont think so
Jason doctorwhoone
June 27th, 2012 - 7:20pmOnly problem I have with this is it should have the red Drone Daleks, instead it features the Time War Daleks, and there are ment to be no more of those ones.
Bazinga
June 27th, 2012 - 7:23pmMaybe this is before the Paradigm were ‘progenitored’?
Boodleoo
June 27th, 2012 - 7:50pmMaybe but then why wouldn’t the doctor make a reference to the situation in victory of the daleks if it was before I mean. Loving the name by the way Bazinga.
Bazinga
June 27th, 2012 - 7:51pmThanks, it’s from The Big Bang Theory!
Give me a Dalek any day
June 27th, 2012 - 8:10pmI have a feeling this will tie in slighlty with Asylum of the Daleks considering the fact the book will be released shortly after the episode airs. 🙂
Dalek Sec
June 28th, 2012 - 8:52amWell this comic was going to be published until “Victory of the Daleks” came, so being set in WWI with a scientist claiming he invented the Daleks was too similar. But then again why does the Doctor meet the Daleks in order, being a time traveller? Or these Daleks could just been other survivors of the Time War. Anyway what ever it is i look forward to reading it.
Boodleoo
June 28th, 2012 - 10:39pmThats why I like your name Bazinga :). And Dalek sec that might be the case. Let’s hope it’s not too similar and it turns out the inventors a robot who’s actually a bomb :S.
GreenAnchorRedWaterfall
July 27th, 2012 - 6:04pmI will not be buying this if it’s like Victory of the Daleks, because I hated that episode.
Give me a Dalek any day
July 27th, 2012 - 6:48pmWhat?? I loved Victory!!! 😀 I assume I’m in the minority of people who actually liked that episode. 😉
Esterath
June 27th, 2012 - 7:18pmThis looks AMAZING! Can’t wait for it, I loved The Only Good Dalek so The Dalek Project will be great!
DoctorWho4Eva
June 27th, 2012 - 5:29pmI probably won’t get it. I’ll just watch Victory of the Daleks or read “The Only Good Dalek” instead.
gary
June 27th, 2012 - 4:14pmOMG this was ment to come out in Tennant’s last year but it was too similar to Victory of the Daleks so they have obviously postponed it nd changed it to suit Matt Smith! I remembered it last week and was looking into it so it’s great to see it is coming out!!
Commander Strax
June 27th, 2012 - 5:46pmi read that in a book about daleks. Its the same title!!
the TARDIS
June 27th, 2012 - 4:05pmLooking forward to this, digging out my copy of the Only Good Dalek! Although it does seem like Victory of the Daleks only in WWI. And without the Jelly Babies Daleks.
Give me a Dalek any day
June 27th, 2012 - 4:18pmI love The Only Good Dalek! Such wonderful memories of reading it during the bitter cold of Christmas 2010. 🙂 I must get my copy out as well. 😉
pupbenny
June 27th, 2012 - 3:47pmWhat the? This is just Victory of the Daleks in WWI instead of II. 😛
doctor fan5
June 27th, 2012 - 4:01pmyour right its just a different story to it!
Give me a Dalek any day
June 27th, 2012 - 4:10pmThis was orginally meant to be a Tenth Doctor story released in 2009, but it was cancelled most likely because of it’s similarities to Victory of the Daleks. 🙂 I’m glad it’s being released for the Eleventh Doctor though. It wouldn’t surprise me if there was a reference to Victory of the Daleks. 🙂
stewie
July 10th, 2012 - 7:48amdidn’t they release one called the dalek project
stewie
July 10th, 2012 - 7:49amfeaturing THE 10TH DOCTOR!!!
Give me a Dalek any day
June 27th, 2012 - 3:19pmSo this is being done for the Eleventh Doctor now? Awesome! 😀
Hurry up 26th September!!! 😀
Tardis’nt
June 27th, 2012 - 3:04pmI was actually going to write a story called the dalek project that follows on to genisis. this sounds too simiilar to victory of the daleks.
KORSAIR
June 27th, 2012 - 2:18pmWhat’s this? Have they redone for 11 instead of 10? And is it actually gonna be released this time? Stay tuned………………
sausageroll
