Next week sees the Seventh Doctor return in Titan Comics’ new three-part series ‘Operation Volcano’. From a former Seventh Doctor writer and Script Editor comes a new addition to the Titan Comics Doctor Who lineup. As a sneak peak BlogtorWho can reveal the first view pages of Issue 1 of this highly anticipated comic book.
This brand new comic adventure features the Seventh Doctor as played by Sylvester McCoy and Ace as played by Sophie Aldred. Operation Volcano comes from the minds of Andrew Cartmel and Ben Aaronovitch (Rivers of London). The duo previously combined for fan favourite episode ‘Remembrance of the Daleks’ which celebrates it’s 30th anniversary this year. Fans of that story may also recognise a character who appeared in that adventure reappearing in this story. Bringing Operation Volcano to the page is comics illustrator Christopher Jones (The Third Doctor) and colourist Marco Lesko (The Ninth Doctor).
Synopsis
An unknown alien intelligence in orbit around the Earth. Astronauts under attack. A terrifying, mysterious landing in the Australian interior. The future of the world itself at stake. Counter Measures activated. The Seventh Doctor and Ace are slap bang in the middle of it all! This is OPERATION VOLCANO!
DOCTOR WHO: SEVENTH DOCTOR #1
As you can see Sylvester McCoy and Sophie Aldred have been brilliantly captured and it is set to be a colourful and exciting adventure for the Seventh Doctor and Ace. In addition, the Seventh Doctor comic also includes a short back-up strip written by Richard Dinnick (Twelfth Doctor) with art by Jessica Martin (Mags in Doctor Who: The Greatest Show in the Galaxy).
