The next Doctor Who Magazine Bookazine, invading newsagents and Local Comic Shops across the country from 22nd May is the Doctor Who: Cybermen – The Ultimate Guide.
If it’s as impressive as the previous, similarly-styled Doctor Who: Daleks – The Ultimate Guide release published by Panini last year, you’ll certainly want it, and the teaser spreads below suggest it very much is…
The age of artificial intelligence is bringing us closer than ever to the parallel world that Doctor Who first predicted some 60 years ago. As the embodiment of that nightmarish future, the Cybermen remain one of the series’ deadliest foes – and a grim warning about our loss of humanity.
Edited by Marcus Hearn, this new bookazine explores the entire history of these horrifying machine creatures across 224 lavishly illustrated pages, with exclusive CG recreations of Cyberman designs and technology.
The title also includes comics features by Paul Scoones, author of the indispensable The Comic Strip Companion, a smashing unofficial guide to Doctor Who in comics published between 1964 and 1979.
Richard Unwin has written a piece on cyber-related fan films.
Featuring new interviews, rare images and insightful commentary, this comprehensive and revealing guide is available in an exclusive slipcase.
