IN PRINT EPISODE 42

Previous Next

I just couldn't resist some kind of reference to Douglas Adams for strip 42, if you don't get why you then you need to read The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Seriously.



It also marks a nice point for Jim to sign off for a little while. Before anyone panics I'd like to assure everyone that, like James Bond, Jim will be back. Jim and Mrs Jim are expecting a little Jim in the next wee while and whilst he'll still be drawing the strip it didn't seem fair to expect him to meet deadlines as well as all the fatherly duties he's about to encounter.

And he has plenty to be drawing, scripts for the next 3 or 4 months have been written and sent out with the exception of 'The Propcupboard of Obscure Doom', which needs typed up and sent to 2nd Fade. Once that's done I just need to work a bit ahead on 'Dangling Threads' and 'The Wrong Doctor' and I'll be set for my own Paternity Leave

So, Jim's on Paternity Leave for a bit. He'll still be around on Twitter and suchlike though.

Which brings us onto the other bit of news we have for you today.

While we have some filler strips lined up to fill Jim's slot 'The Infinity Doctors' returns next week. The strip itself has regenerated into 'The Infinites' and are drawn by Nesshead now.

We've been working with Ness behind the scenes now for a while and can't wait to show you the strips he's been producing.

So, we'll see you all next week for Nesshead's first strip and in the meantime you can find us on Twitter or Facebook,

THE INFINITY DOCTORS - Strip 6 Jesse Lax

And the Infinity Doctors Spin off/Side strip continues.

Have you all been enjoying it? I ask mostly because Jesse will finishing up drawing it in the very near future so that he can get back to illustrating our other joint project; Dangling Threads.

I find myself somewhat torn; on one hand I can't wait to get more of the Threads out there, but on the other I had more plans for the Infinity Doctors before finishing up the run.

So.............

Are there any budding web artists out there that fancy picking up from where Jesse is about to finish off? If so then you should contact us immediately through inprint@doctor.com. If you know someone who you think would be perfect then throw this page their way.

There are about 20 strips stretching over the course of next year and finishing up around the 50th Anniversary of Doctor Who.

So, there you have it. Your very own chance to become part of the In Print strip.

Providing you can draw legs of course.

Jim will be drawing next weeks strip as normal, for those of you that were worried about that. I know I worry about it most weeks.

On a completely different note; wasn't 'Dinosaurs on a Spaceship' fun? Jim pointed out that there hasn't really been a purely fun episode since the RTD era, I had to check but he's right. As much as I enjoy watching the long game that Mr Moffat is playing it was nice to sit down and enjoy the ride.

As usual keep an eye on our Twitter and Facebook feeds and we'll see you all again next week.
