2.0 out of 5 stars Great magazine, but not from Amazon..., March 12, 2005

Come on, the cover price is only $8 USD. You can still purchase it at any comic book dealer and probably most book stores that have the ability to special order magazines as well as books.

It's a great magazine but, unless you don't have a choice, don't pay Amazon their extortion prices for it...

5.0 out of 5 stars More than a fan mag - more than a TV show!, September 1, 2003

If you are a fan of the world of Doctor Who, you can not go wrong subscribing. Past,present, and future issues are covered on a regular basis. The magazine has in depth articles regarding its history and those who played a role in it.Each issue also comes with an animated comic of the current Doctor(in COLOR even!) and very professionally done. There are reviews on every new product including DVDs, CDs,Books, and Audio Dramas. Once a year there is a FREE CD issue that includes an exclusive audio drama from Big Finish Productions. There are very humorous and enlightening editorials in each issue. All spin off series are covered as well (i.e. Bernice Summerfield, Faction Paradox, etc. ).

Overall the magazines visuals are excellent. They have the largest library of exclusive Dr. Who photos on Earth.

The only thing that I can complain about is the price - I could buy a lot of the books for this price. But where else are you going to get such extensive coverage? Cheap fan mags are okay, but this goes far beyond!

And for those of you who have not kept up with Dr. Who - it is no longer 'just' a tv show - it is a genre.

5.0 out of 5 stars Way too expensive, July 9, 2005

Going along with M. Blake:

This is a wonderful magazine, and is chock full of information on both the classic and new series - great for those of us in the US that don't get to see it. The interviews, previews, audio review, etc. are all great. I especially liked the "Fact of Fiction" for the missing stories, as they give a very nice insight to what they were like.

What's not great is the pricetag from Amazon. The issues that I have are marked at 6.50 USD. That's only 84.50 USD for all 13 issues. Either get them from a comic book store that will charge you just the cover price, or buy them from eBay. Either way, you'll save yourself over 40 bucks.
