IN PRINT - 130

























































                                                     Previous Strip  Next Strip

And we're done. I should really write more strips. Next week's is sorted though. Looking forward to seeing how it looks. I smell T-shirt potential quite frankly.

Jim was interviewed last week. If you want to see how that turned out there should be a link round about here.

Expect the next set of strips to be influenced by the new series. Time to get back to our roots.

IN PRINT - 129

























































                                         Previous Strip    Next Strip 

There do seem to be a few versions of the first around, don't there.

And actually, a few of you saw this particular plot point coming a few strips back. I do love to see readers speculating, it means you're properly engaged.

Not long now til the new series. I quite enjoyed the new trailer, can't wait to see how it all comes together. I'm especially keen to see an expanded TARDIS team, I've always enjoyed the group dynamic it brings with it.

Well that's me for this week. I'm off to write some more and tidy up the navigation links.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is a running joke.

I'm afraid I've slowed down on updating the navigation links the last week. I'll hopefully get back into it next week.

See you all then.

IN PRINT - 127

Because we needed one more cast member.

As much as I enjoyed Bradley's Doctor I couldn't quite buy him as Hartnell's Doctor. So he's getting a space in this strip.

As Jim might have mentioned I turned 40 last Saturday. I'm still recovering. Was a good weekend though.

And a month from now we're getting new Doctor Who in about a month. Finally. There's a script I wrote when she was first announced that I might get Jim to revisit. Especially as I've been relistening to Exile this week. 

If you're in the Glasgow area tomorrow you should come and join me at Lok's to see Peter Cushing deal with a Dalek Invasion. It'd be nice to see you.

A very quick post today as I'm knee deep in family business.

As you can see 7 and 8 have caught up with the rest of the country in regards to viewing. 

I quite enjoyed Bradley's Doctor and the morphing at the start made it clear this was OUR first Doctor. Jury is still out on Richard Hurndell.

I'm approaching the half way mark in updating the navigation links. Geez we've done a lot...

The Gallifrey Exchange #2

























































                                                    Previous Strip   Next Strip

The Gallifrey Exchange is brought to you entirely by Jim as I attempt to get more strips to him. Life is drifting towards the new definition of normal, but not quite there yet.

And in other news Capaldi seems to be leaving. A shame, but not a huge surprise. I've quite enjoyed his performance, but I'm not utterly convinced that he's had the best of circumstances to perform in.

IN PRINT - 1966 Part 2


I really wish I'd written this one. I love the idea of the 1st Doctor's garden from the Five Doctors being the start of the In Print verse. I think it was Paul Cornell that first put the idea forward in Timewyrm, I'll need to check.

Either way, it's a nice idea and Jim pulls it off nicely.

Next week 2ndfade is back. See you all then.

IN PRINT - 1966




































                                              Previous Strip Next In Print '66 Strip

Isn't technology grand. This is my third attempt at this blog today. Thankfully I didn't delete the strip

after all. I really need to fix my PC. Doing this and the scripts from my phone is getting really, really old.



Today comes from Jim. Back to my scripts as of next week all going well. Though I'm going to miss knowing what's coming. Today's strip made me grin.

IN PRINT - 99




















































Yes as it happens I had watched 'The Zeppo' shortly before I wrote this strip, but you have to admit that Jim makes this work. One more week and we hit 100, I'm still processing that one.

So, Zygons huh? I seriously enjoyed that. Got quite a kick out of seeing one of the Osgoods in 'Curse of Fenric' get up, such a nice touch.

And we get to add Basil to the list of possible names for the Doctor. Well that and Doctor John Disco who I'm fairly sure is a relation of DJ Foo. What ever happened to that guy?

We'll be back next week with our 100th In Print strip which features a couple of guest stars that I'm quite looking forward to seeing. Should be a blast.

THE PROP CUPBOARD OF OBSCURE DOOM... 7







                        Previous Prop Cupboard  Next Prop Cupboard

And we're back in the Prop Cupboard, it's been a while hasn't it? In fact I need to get more scripts sent over to 2ndFADE, it's far too long.

I try not to be a dictator in regards to our output, whilst I have an overall plan for In Print I usually try and accommodate the different members of the art team when they ask to draw certain characters and monsters. Sometimes it's a cameo and sometimes it results in a whole arc I hadn't initially planned, but ends up working it's way into the grand plan.

There's a slightly different with 2ndFADE. The scripts form over a series of Emails as we discuss different aspects of who and at some point an amusing scene will occur to me that we then working on filling with little details.

Little details aren't always run past me. It's nice to see Nuala and Alfie again for example! Thanks, 2ndFADE.

Of course when we first put this one together 'Nightmare in Silver' was still called 'The Last Cyberman', we never updated that as I quite frankly prefer the original title. I'll be interested to hear in the comments section if you guys can place all the Gaiman references.

You can find more of the work by 2ndFADE here at his website -  www.2ndfade.com

Nesshead is back next week. It was his birthday yesterday, you should all drop over to his Facebook page and wish him a belated happy birthday.

Speaking of next week, any guesses as to where the War Doctor will end up this time?

IN PRINT - Place holder









































































The final stage of Con Wars will be with us very soon.

In the mean time you can enjoy a place holder strip that Jesse came up with.

Back soon...

IN PRINT EPISODE 70




























































And........... cut!

That's 'Paradox Now' done. For now at any rate. There's still a few unanswered questions and that's not accidental. Feel free to speculate in the comments section.

The next few arcs drawn by Jim are considerably shorter, but will still help set the stage for the coming year. But first we return you to Nesshead and the 'Grand Tour'.

Which raises a point. We've started doing the arcs in blocks rather than swapping week about between Jim and Nesshead. What do you guys think? Do you prefer it this way or did you like alternating? Let us know!

That's all I have to say just now. My eldest daughter was up most of last night and I'm not nearly as awake as I would like to be.

Hope you guys enjoyed the arc and we'll see you next week.

Don't forget that we have Twitter and Facebook pages and that you can support us by visiting our store and buying something.

IN PRINT EPISODE 61











































Nope, it's not good. Not good at all.

I've just shoe horned in a Star Trek joke. Oh well.

"A chronologically advanced and evil version of Movie boy." I'd forgotten I'd gone for that description. That works a lot better than my attempt at describing the Grandfather yesterday. 

So, one of our Doctors is no more. What do you think happens when part of the Doctor's hard drive gets wiped? I mean apart from Matt Smith rolling on the floor in pain that is.

You'll get to find out tomorrow. I'm sure it'll be the highlight of your day.

Can't imagine there's anything else happening...
