When Doctor Who magazine first began life in 1979 it was a weekly comic basically with fun features, not like the magazine in its current incarnation.

It had some wonderful comic strips such as The Iron legion and The Tides of Time produced by some of the cream of British talent in Pat Mills, John Wagner, Steve Moore and Dave Gibbons amongst others.

The strip rarely featured on the cover, but they did a few cover comic artworks for the Dalek story The Dogs of War and The Time Witch.

Here they are.

I had the full weekly run until recently, even with stickers for a couple of the early issues. I stopped buying not long after it became monthly. Wasn't as good from then on.

I do still have a bit of a tatty copy of this though. Marvel Premiere 57 and the Doctor's U.S. debut, although this copy is for the UK market as it has a UK price.

savage sword of conan.
The Savage Sword of Conan was a black-and-white magazine-format comic book series published beginning in 1974 by Curtis Magazines, an imprint of Marvel Comics, and then later by Marvel itself. Savage Sword of Conan starred Robert E. Howard's most famous creation, Conan the Barbarian, and has the distinction of being the longest-surviving title of the short-lived Curtis imprint.

A few years ago, six actually, i started buying the latest launch of Red Sonja from Dynamite publishing.

I bought the first six storylines, then gave up. Not because i don't like them but because i prefer graphic novels to comics. You can't really miss an issue that way.

Unfortunately i am yet to buy a graphic novel of the series.

Here's the covers to the story Queen of the Frozen Wastes.

Sort of keeping with the Conan theme, DC did some reprints of classic tales in their 1980's Masterworks series. The first two were from Frank Frazetta, legendary Conan book cover artist. One of his original Conan paintings sold for over $1.5 million a few years ago!



It's also Frazetta on the Epic cover earlier btw.
