THE RE-INTRODUCTION TO THE 'IN PRINT'-VERSE

Previous Strip  Next Strip

We're back and it's about...

No. Stop it. That's been done to death at this point.

We've rather neglected you guys over the last few years and had a number of false re-starts. Hopefully this one sticks.

I'm acutely aware that we've been especially quiet over the 13th Doctor era. This absolutely isn't a judgement on Jodie Whittaker's take on our favourite Time Lord, it's not even a judgement on Chibnall's era. Honest.

I certainly have opinions on how Chibnall ran things, but we've always tried to be positive on here so...

But there are a few things he brought to the table that I think will have a lasting impact and legacy on Who. I know I'm not in the majority, but I loved the idea of The Timeless Child. The idea of the Doctor being crucial in the founding of Time Lord society has distinct echoes of the Other and of course I love that.

The Fugitive Doctor was a breath of fresh air and I really enjoyed the reintroduction of a bit of mystery to the Doctor's past. Expect to see her on here in the near future.

And he finally gave us closure on just who the Morbius Doctors were. That was nice of him.

He also gave us Arachnids in the UK. So you know, swings and roundabouts.

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.

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.

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...

And now we're referencing 'Cold Fusion'. The book at any rate. I've only listened to half the audio as I had to send my phone for repair with my review copy and by the time Carphone Warehouse admitted they'd lost it the window for downloading and listening to the review copy was gone.

Every so often they contact me to ask why I haven't gone back to them. Cold Fusion, that's why. Well that and generally crappy service.

But I digress.

We didn't get round to fixing the links this week, so possible disruption this week. What I did manage to do was go through the entire site (there's a lot of it these days) and got a list of all the broken links. I'm also planning to simplify the navigation.

See you all next week.

And that's the end of this arc. Not bad considering we kicked it off in March last year.

Though to be fair it was a longer arc than we've been used to, but still.

I managed to start re-doing the navigation links in the earlier strips and managed to avoid disrupting the front page at all. Hopefully that's a trend I can keep going over the next week or so.

A brand new main strip arc starts next week and you'll see that we're starting to catch up with the main timeline. Personally I can't wait to see how Jim and Nesshead handle the 13th Doctor.

Time will tell. It usually does.

November since we last checked in on this arc huh? Jim's right, it has been a while.

But we're getting back on track. I've got some strips to send to Nesshead and Jim's got plenty to work on just now.

I'm going to be spending the next week updating our navigation links as well as our Reading Order and Archive. So there may be the odd occasion where the front page is actually an old strip. Please bear with us whilst we  mess this up, it'll be better for it in the end!

So we haven't put out a strip in a while for one reason or another... With me, (Jim) moving house over the Christmas period, and Alasdair just getting back into writing again. I'm sure we'll be back with more fun and adventures with our favourite Timelord(s) very soon. In the meantime...

Aha!!! A new character! Who is she? Well you can probably work it out if you’ve read the books, but if you don’t then all you need is a little patience and the answer will be revealed soon enough. In other news they’ve revealed the new Doctor’s outfit and I’m a little concerned. They need to get this right and this, in my opinion, is their first misstep. If this Doctor fails, for any reason, then people will always assume it was because she was a woman. Hopefully they’ll adapt it as they go. And I’ve just had an idea for a strip...

Can you believe this is actually Part 14 of this arc so far? I haven't titled or numbered each individual strip at the top of the page like I usually do.. It would make it easier just in we decide to collect up the strips in a book one day. Anyway this week we catch up on Eight and Rivers date night!
Before I go here's a reminder to join our group page on Facebook.

I don't think Benny's too happy to hear she has a replacement (River) just like as previous versions of the Doctor gets referred to.. and often by himself.
We've got a new WHO's Cat strip from Micheal David Key aka Mikes Star Art in a couple of weeks time which I think we would all love to see a longer run again, hint hint ;-)
as always don't forget to join our group page on Facebook to get all our latest updates and feel free to post anything of interest in return - we love seeing all the amazing fan art, cosplay or any creative projects out there.

Jim here, sorry I'm late (again) with the strip this week... Been lots going on, Alasdair and his partner had a little girl last week, so congratulations to them! I went to Cardiff to visit the Doctor Who Experience before it closed its doors for the last time. Very sad to see it go, but hopefully it will get relocated before too long.
Anyway, It looks like Seven is reading some of the finer details from The Dying Days by Lance Parkin...

And we're back again with the main strip! It's Jim here writing this week as Alasdair's off on paternity leave due to the exciting little person waiting to arrive in his and his partners lives. Thanks to Ness for last weeks Infinites strip, hopefully we'll be seeing more from him later in the year. This week we introduce a new character into the InPrint'Verse but a very familiar one to the fans of the New Adventures and Big Finish. And let's face it we've been discussing her in the strip since the very beginning. Welcome Bernice Summerfield!

This was written long before the 13th Doctor was chosen, but it really doesn't read like that does it?
There was a slight mix up last week and I referenced a strip that I've written but that Jim hasn't drawn yet. It's hopefully coming soon and it'll confirm that we here at In Print Towers are very much in favour of the new Doctor.

In other news I've just sent Jim a whole new batch of strips to Jim and Nesshead will be getting some soon as well. Sorry for the delay in getting things back to normal.

We're back and it's about time.

And yes, this strip is a ringing endorsement of the In Print team regarding the casting of Jodie Whittaker. She's a good actress with a solid CV, anything else is purely window dressing as far as casting the Doctor goes.

We've been a wee while getting things back on track and the responsibility lies solely with me.

I don't talk much about my private life on here, but a small handful of you know my divorce was getting finalised this year. Nothing to get down about, it's very definitely for the best, but it takes time and focus to deal with these things. Also, to give things a more positive spin I met someone else last year and since then we've moved in together and are expecting next month. However in between love, babies, co-habitation and engagements I found a lump. 

You don't need any further details than that, just that everything's resolved as far as that's concerned and it won't hold up the strip any longer.

Jim has a series of scripts that should take us past my paternity leave and I re-read the entire run of the Infinites yesterday and Nesshead should have new scripts in the very near future.

So, yeah, sorry about the gap, but a massive thank you to Mike and 2ndFade who kept it smaller than I could have hoped.

It's good to be back.

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.
