Doctor Who: The Monster Makers
The variant cover edition is exclusive to the Panini online store, is also on sale two weeks before the regular edition, and will be dispatched from the 19th of August.
Moth-plagued mega cities, frozen fairy-tale foes and X-treme, X-ecutive X-tortioners! Join the Doctor and Ruby Sunday as they continue their amazing adventures across time and space!
Manchester, the year 2424 AD, Ruby and the Doctor discover the corruption that lies beneath the city’s surface, and a club so good no one can ever leave. Next, a trip to 1850s Copenhagen where they meet none other than author Hans Christian Andersen – but things take an unexpected turn when Ruby is taken prisoner by a villainous ice queen! Then, Ruby and the Doctor land in a seemingly quaint town that is invaded by monsters over and over again…
Plus! Discover what really happened in between The Star Beast and Wild Blue Yonder, as Donna and the Fourteenth Doctor bounce through time in a flaming, out of control TARDIS! Also includes a full behind-the-scenes commentary section on the making of these incredible stories.
The regular edition with cover art by Lee Sullivan and James Offredi will be on sale from the 2nd of September at bookstores and online retailers.
