Coinciding with new episodes of
Doctor Who hitting TV screens on Easter Saturday, Immediate Media Co is re-launching
Doctor Who Adventures magazine and its website with a new logo, fresh design and brand-new features today, Thursday 28th March 2013.
With weekly sales of over 31,000 and ranked Number One in the primary boys magazines market, the title gives young
Doctor Who fans a chance to tap into the world of their favourite Time Lord, his best friends and his greatest enemies.
Along with the regular strip drawn by John Ross - albeit in a younger style than before - the new-look
Doctor Who Adventures also features a new comic, ‘Alien Babies’, by Jamie Smart, cool monster makes, a collectable Whoniverse guide, behind the scenes secrets and loads more!
The
Doctor Who Adventures website will also carry extra videos, downloads and even more content.
To celebrate, the magazine is inviting kids to their ‘Monster Day Out’ event - the world’s first ever kids only
Doctor Who event at the
Doctor Who Experience in Cardiff on Wednesday 3rd April. A day packed with monster fun, visitors can meet the show’s widely popular Sontaran, Strax (played as on the show by Dan Starkey), and find out how he feels about being called a potato head during a special Q&A session.*
“We’re really excited to be re-launching
Doctor Who Adventures with a dynamic new look and fantastic new content," enthuses the title's editor Natalie Barnes. "This is a brilliant year for the show, and it’s great to be a part of it.
"Our Monster Day Out is the perfect way for us to give something back to our readers – and for them to come face-to-face with one of the Doctor’s most fearsome (and shortest) allies, Commander Strax!”

Is the main strip still in it? I tried to find a copy in local shops for a look through but none of them stock it now.
Yep, the main strip is still there, but it's in a simpler style.
