Titan Magazines, publishers of
Torchwood Magazine, have partnered up with UK digital channel
Watch to offer
an exclusive Torchwood strip on their web site, as part of their promotion for the screening of
Torchwood Season Two.
The strip has been written by
Brian Minchin, a Script Editor and Assistant Producer on
Torchwood and drawn by
Adrian Salmon, whose credits also include
Doctor Who,
Judge Dredd: The Megazine and many more. He also co-created Image Comics’
The Faceless graphic novel, starring Terry Sharp.
The strip is lettered by
John Workman, one of comics’ most famous letterers, who has worked on comics by Walt Simonson, Grant Morrison and others.
In other
Torchwood-related news, a quick reminder that Issue 14, on sale this week in the UK, will feature an original comic strip written by none other than Captain Jack himself,
John Barrowman, and his sister, and regular collaborator,
Carole E. Barrowman (
see earlier news story).
The story, entitled
Captain Jack and the Selkie, drawn by Tommy Lee Edwards and Trevor Goring, sees Captain Jack facing a deadly threat on a remote Scottish island, where people are disappearing one by one... To his horror, Jack starts to suspect he may know who – or perhaps more specifically what – is responsible...
"It looks beautiful," comic editor Martin Eden told
downthetubes, also revealing special promotional posters for the issue will soon be displayed in Forbidden Planet stores.
