1989: DOCTOR WHO SPECIALS COVER GALLERY - PART FIFTEEN (Marvel UK)

The 1989 DOCTOR WHO SUMMER SPECIAL was another excuse for a celebration: 10 years of MARVEL UK's DOCTOR WHO MAGAZINE, nee Monthly and Weekly.  Although, the bulk of the articles were tenuously connected at best.

It was another square bound, album-format edition with an overview of the title's history, interviews with Nicolas Courtney, Colin Baker and behind-the-scenes bod Tim Coombe, Black Orchid in the Archive, a 'creature feature' on the spud-headed Sontarans, a piece on K-9 and a great redesign for the Daleks by their original BBC in-house mastermind Raymond Cusick.

The issue also featured a portfolio of artwork from past contributors to the comic strip and the cover for the unpublished 44th issue of DWW.  I'll post those separately.
