And now for something completely different:
1. Yes, I know that Marvel is repeating the Dr. Who comics from their
weekly (now monthly) in the U.K.
2. I am quite aware that the Tom Baker persona of the Doctor is probably
the favourite of North Amerian fandom.

However;
If I am going to pay $1.50 for this mag, I want to see something for it!!
I think it was the combination of the lateness of the magazine, the re-hash
from the old Premiere, and the #$%&'%()0("# Dalek story in the back.
If they had to wait 6 months after they announce the appearance of this
magazine, I want to see some new material! I feel as if Marvel is going
for some really hard-core fan abusing in this. They can print 6 year old
strips, and make a large amount of money on it. I realise that they aren't
in the business out of the goodness of their hearts, but they seem to be
inreasingly crossing over the line of sheer abuse.
