It’s Ace! Dalek comic art for sale

By John Freeman on August 26, 2011

Rummaging through my loft I came across this page of art from Marvel UK’s 1993 Doctor Who Year Book by Lee Sullivan – a strip I edited while editor of Doctor Who Magazine.

It really needs a better home than my loft – for a start, someone will need to lovingly put some of the word balloons back into place – so if it’s a piece you’d like for your wall, head over to eBay and make a bid.

The strip is ‘Metamorphosis’, written by Paul Cornell. Although it appeared in colour in the Year Book the art is black and white and features Seventh Doctor companion battling Daleks hand to sucker as only she can.
