Doctor Who Annual 2023

Product Information

Over the years, the Doctor Who annuals from Wor ld Distributors would have many highlights. That very first annual featured the wonderful ‘The Lair of Zarbi Supremo,’ a sequel to TV’s ‘The Web Planet’ in which “Dr. Who” pilots a robot ant into battle against a megalomaniacal ant who has flown the planet Vortis across space to invade the Earth. I suspect the will want Ncuti on the front of the 2024 annual, he will probably not have much to do with the 60th so i can see why they have gone this route, especially as Annuals are a Christmas thing really.

Doctor Who Official (60th Anniversary) Annual 2023

From the late 1960s through to the late 1980s (with the single exception of 1971), World Distributors, Ltd published Doctor Who Annual. The often notoriously bizarre stories and comics sometimes went in very strange directions and companions portrayed in the illustrations and descriptions of regular characters often bore little resemblance to their actors. This year's journey through time and space will take you through the Doctor Who universe like never before - to the past, present, future. And beyond. Are you ready for the Biggest Adventure of Your Life? Well then . . . When John Nathan-Turner became producer of Doctor Who, he exerted a greater influence on merchandising and tie-in product releases (including the annuals) which, under his watchful eye, saw an increase in standards as well as featuring series related material. What I Did on my Summer Holidays by Sally Sparrow’ by Steven Moffat in the Doctor Who Annual 2006 (c) PaniniBy rights it should be a Jodie cover as we probably will not see the new Doctor until 2023 itself, so their cover will be on the 2024 annual. It would make up for the 13th Doctor missing from this years annual cover. Doctor Who’s 60th anniversary specials are on their way to BBC One for 2023 with a start date now confirmed. As John Nathan-Turner took the reigns of Doctor Who in 1980, he placed a new emphasis on ensuring consistency for the brand across different media. The impact of this on the Doctor Who annuals was a new uniformity; the short stories and comic strips may have had as straightforward, brief plots as ever, but they now felt more like missing scenes from Doctor Who on television, rather than windows into a weird alternate universe. The licensing of likenesses was also more standard by the 80s, and the likes of Tegan, Turlough and Peri all looked refreshingly like the actors who played them.

Davies shared: “The path to Ncuti’s Fifteenth Doctor is laden with mystery, horror, robots, puppets, danger and fun! The very first annual arrived during the show’s second series in 1965, billed simply as The Dr Who Annual. Its cover immediately set the tone for what was to follow, with the First Doctor, a Voord, a Menoptra, a Zarbi and a unique version of a Sensorite alongside a TARDIS with a very peculiar roof. For the next 20 years, the annuals would face the challenge of limited photo references and access to the television scripts. The results were comic strips and stories that often required a bit of squinting to recognise the characters from the TV show, both in how they looked and how they acted. Russell T Davies, Showrunner says: “This is just the start, as the fever starts to burn. We’re heading for a November full of Doctor Who surprises, for fans and new viewers alike.
