Titan Comics has announced that Eisner Award-Winning writer Dan Slott (Spider-Man) will pen three separate annual Doctor Who comic book one-shots featuring the Tenth Doctor and companion Martha Jones, and is scheduled to hit stores in April 2022.
Writer Dan Slott – known for his critically acclaimed work on Marvel Comics such as The Amazing Spider-Man, She-Hulk, Silver Surfer, The Superior Spider-Man, Tony Stark: Iron Man, The Mighty Avengers, and Fantastic Four – is set to delight fans with an epic story that begins with companion Martha Jones captured by the insatiable Pyromeths, and her only hope for survival is to keep them distracted with sensational untold tales of the Tenth Doctor facing off against his greatest foes – both classic and new!”
This all-new Tenth Doctor comic adventure teams Slott with fan-favorite artist Christopher Jones, who has previously worked on Titan’s Doctor Who: The Third Doctor – Heralds Of Destruction and Doctor Who: The Seventh Doctor – Operation Volcano.
In a press release from Titan Comics, Slott said about his upcoming spin on the T.A.R.D.U.S.’s tenth captain:
“One of the worst secrets in comics is that I am one of the world’s biggest Whovians! I’ve been regularly watching Doctor Who since the Tom Baker years, and am deeply devoted to every incarnation of the show! I’ve been waiting to write stories for the Doctor my whole life! And I couldn’t be happier than getting a chance to tell an all-new tale of the Tenth Doctor – and to be doing this with Chris and all the fine folks at TITAN! Allons-Y!”
Titans Comics Doctor Who Comics editor, Jake Devine said about Slott’s involvement:
“I’m very excited to be working on this project with Dan – he’s a huge Who fan, and it shows. This Doctor Who special exudes all of Dan’s creativity and love of storytelling, with a few surprises along the way!”
Titan Comics Publishers, Dr Vivian Cheung & Nick Landau added:
“We’re totally fired up that Dan is bringing his incredible knowledge and life long enthusiasm for Doctor Who to writing a story that will lead into a year long chapter for our favourite Time Lord.”
