Exclusive Newbury Comics Cover

doctor who_newburyThis is the exclusive cover to Doctor Who #11 that I illustrated for Newbury Comics. It was the first time I got to draw the new companion, Clara Oswald and the Doctor’s updated costume so that was fun. I think using the contrast between the vintage photo and the clean, crisp, blue wood of the TARDIS really worked and made this cover unique to some of the other ones I worked on. If you’d like to purchase a copy you can do so HERE.

I’ll have a few more covers to post in the next few weeks, but that’ll probably be it for Doctor Who. While at SDCC, I learned that IDW Publishing no longer has the license to produce Doctor Who comics. Obviously I was saddened by this news because I love working on Doctor Who and with my editor, Denton, at IDW.

Prisoners of Time concept

DW-conceptI’ve been working on several Doctor Who covers lately, so when I was asked to come up with a concept for Doctor Who: Prisoners of Time I was excited because it would have been for ALL 12 covers of the series. Each issue was going to spotlight a specific Doctor, so issue #1 would feature Doctor #1, issue #2 ~ Doctor #2, etc. My plan was to have the Doctor prominent in the foreground, behind him would be all the companions that travelled with that specific Doctor and the TARDIS. The background characters would have been tonal color scheme so you could see them while still making the Doctor the main focus. Then, issue #12 would flip so that the TARDIS was the main focus and the Doctors would be surrounding it instead of the companions. Unfortunately, the project didn’t happen and I was of course, a little disappointed. Too bad, it would have been a cool series of covers.

Anyway, tune in after San Diego Comic Con for a sneak peek of more new artwork. Speaking of SDCC, I’ll be signing at IDW (booth #2643), Saturday (7/20) from 3-4pm along with Tony Lee, Andy Kuhn, Josh Fialkov, Scott Tipton, David Tipton. Please come visit and let me know you saw it on my site!
