My wife and I saw it a few years back at the Alamo Drafthouse. It was a themed "Movie Party" showing. They served fish, gave us foam shark-fin hats and poppers to pull when the oxygen tank blows up at the end. 🦈

Bloody Disgusting is listed as a partner in the trailer, so they're obviously involved in the films release. Smells like someone who doesn't know what they're talking about.

Me too! I've really enjoyed your Thirteenth Doctor comics, and your version of the Corsair is a definite highlight. If we're going to be in an extended Who-hiatus, I would love to see @comicstitan.bsky.social return to publishing a Doctor Who anthology series, and that story would be a perfect fit.
Comet Zombie (@cometzombie.bsky.social) reply parent
Issue 4 ends in a cliffhanger with the Doctor and friends once again meeting up with the Corsair. I have all of the Titan Comics trades, and there doesn't seem to be a resolution to this story. Any chance we'll ever get the continuing adventures of 13 and the Corsair @jodyhouser.bsky.social ?

'Snare,' the first Doctor Who audio drama from @bigfinish.bsky.social featuring Christopher Eccleston and Billie Piper together, is like listening to an episode of the TV series from 2005. If there's going to be a Who-hiatus, there's no better way to spend it than listening to some Big Finish.

That's something, then. I've been wary of trying out their Godzilla toys because of that previous experience. Silicone shock oil is certainly a life saver if you collect Chinese toys. It's been an absolute necessity for 3rd party Transformers.

I follow a number of UK collectors, and it seems that many North American exclusives are available through UK toy retailers like Star Action Figures or In Demand Toys. McFarlane's distribution is always a roll of the dice, though. I've had to buy quite a few figures from Canada myself.

Agreed. I have all the single trades that IDW released (as well as the uncollected singles), but I sure would like it if Dark Horse collected the entire run in a series of standard sized omnibus trades.

Rocketeer Adventure Magazine #1 is the comic that made me a fan of the Golden Age. I bought it off the rack at my local comic book store in the late 80s. There was nothing else like it. Such a beautiful book.

As a teenage American Doctor Who fan in the early 1980s, this book (and volume 2) was my bible. Most of us didn't know there were other doctors before Tom Baker when we started watching the show. We had to learn everything from Target books before we had the internet.
