Product Description

Industry legend Dave Gibbons illustrated a classic run of Doctor Who comics, and this oversized, hardcover book collects them all for the first time - and in full color! Gibbons-drawn strips began appearing in the very first issue of Doctor Who Magazine (then titled Doctor Who Weekly), starring the Fourth Doctor as portrayed by Tom Baker, and Gibbons continued as the primary artist until issue #69, a Fifth Doctor tale. This volume also features an introduction by Gibbons, along with never-before-seen sketches from the master.

4.0 out of 5 stars Superlative art, mediocre stories 17 July 2012
By Bogart
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a large book, it really shows off the glory of the Dave Gibbons artwork. The recolouring job is very nice too and really updates and compliments the superb reproduction of the art. All in all, i rate this book as being essential for the artwork alone. Without the artwork, this material wouldnt be very well regarded, the stories, while fun, generally appear to have been written 'on the side' by the writers, which is understandable, being that they were originally appearing in licensed Doctor Who comics so were commercially driven(John Wagner's are the best IMO). However, the superb artwork carries the pretty mediocre (speaking as a non-particular fan of Doctor Who) stories to another level, and the format of the book is just to die for. Note - Book does not come shrink wrapped and mine had some light scratches to the cover upon delivery.

5.0 out of 5 stars Apart from Watchmen, this is the Dave Gibbons Essential Reading. 21 Dec 2011
By J. Krueger - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
The art is beautiful, and while some might argue that the set pieces are over-the-top and crazy, I say that that's the strength of the work. And it's Dave Gibbons. The great Dave Gibbons, not limited to a nine-page grid, but free to visualize according to his own gifts and talents. The fact that this has all the new IDW state-of-the-art coloring is also a plus. I would have paid more if it had cost more.

5.0 out of 5 stars Classic Doctor Who Comics! 24 Aug 2012
By Coffee Ramblings - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
NetGalley and IDW Publishing were nice enough to let me view the upcoming paperback release of the Doctor Who Dave Gibbons Collection.

The graphic novels in this collection are:

The Iron Legion; City of the Damned; The Star Beast; The Dogs of Doom; The Time Witch; Dragon's Claw; The Collector; Dreamers of Earth; The Life Bringer; Way of the World; Spider-God; The Deal; The Free Fall Warriors; The Neutron Knights; The Tides of Time; and Stars Fell on Stockbridge.

The Doctor Who Weekly use to have a weekly comic strip, in which years later each of the strip's story arcs where released in separate issues. Now IDW Publishing is releasing the best issues of artist Dave Gibbons.

These issues are set during the fourth Doctor's timeline, where he battles the Roman Empire robot centurians, Wrarth Warriors, Daleks, and other creatures. The Doctor also reunites with K-9 for a few issues.

I became a Doctor Who fan when the new incarnation was briefly aired on the former Scifi Channel. I had a wonderful time reading these amazing stories and I'm sure other Doctor Who fans will like them too.

I received this as a birthday gift from my partner. We are avid comics fans. This collection is awesome. It's a beautiful over sized volume in hardcover. It's a must for Doctor Who fans or people who love comics in general.
