Doctor Who – Terror from the Deep: Episode 62

By John Freeman on January 20, 2024 • ( 1 )

Doctor Who – Terror from the Deep is a not-for-profit Doctor Who strip featuring the Seventh Doctor and Ace, written by John Freeman, with art by Danny Cushion.

Ace is an unwilling ally of the Movellan robot strike force, horrified by their possible plan to use a powerful bio-weapon on Earth – but there’s no time for a debate!

New episodes will initially appear weekly, on Saturdays at 5.16pm, featuring the Seventh Doctor and Ace in an exciting adventure with the Daleks.

This project began as a pitch project to the Daily Express for a newspaper strip, way back in 1989, but the end of the show’s “classic era” on TV meant it did not progress.
