Exclusive: See How The Ninth Doctor Returns In A Brand New 'Doctor Who' Comic
If you're a "Doctor Who" fan -- and of Christopher Eccleston's ninth incarnation of the Doctor in particular -- we've got some fantastic news. Titan Comics will be launching a new, five-part mini-series titled "Doctor Who: The Ninth Doctor," written by "Who-ology" author Cavan Scott.
And MTV News can exclusively reveal the artist for the series will be Blair Shedd, and also show off the cover to the first issue for the first time anywhere:
For those not totally up on their "Who" lore -- or those who may have come to the show late -- Eccelston was the first Doctor to launch the new era of the show in 2005. After one season though, Eccleston departed, and was replaced by David Tennant.
Now, years later, we'll finally get to see more adventures of Eccleston's Doctor... Which is great news for fans of his off-kilter take. Here's the full info, and look for more when it hits stores in March, timed to the 10th anniversary of the return of "Doctor Who" to television!
