From the feedback I’ve heard from fans it seems that issue 16 of Doctor Who, the final 10th Doctor issue, has been our best received issue yet! Then on Saturday I was linked to a review on Comics Bulletin that seems to confirm it. I’m sure I speak for the rest of Team Who that we’re all thrilled that so many people like how it came out!
So, I just discovered that the Doctor Who one shot I wrote and colored, Black Death White Life, has been nominated for an Eagle Award in the “Favourite Single Story Published During 2009″ category. The Eagle Awards are voted on by comic fans all over the world so if you read and liked that issue I hope you’ll consider voting for it. You can get to the voting page here: [link]
Also, as a reminder, I’ll be at HeroesCon June 4th-6th so if you’re going please track me down and say hi. I would love to hear from you. I don’t have a table number or anything yet but if I get one before I leave I’ll try to post that info online. I’ll also be appearing at the 12 Gauge booth for awhile at Heroes to promote a new book I’m coloring called Magus. I’ll be there with the whole creative team, Rebekah Isaacs, Jon Price, and David Norton. I don’t know the schedule for that yet but again, if I find that out before I leave I’ll post it.
I think that’s all my comics related news for now. Thanx for reading!

I’ve been working on Dr. Who Classics for a few years now and this month IDW is releasing an omnibus edition of it. This monster will be 356 pages long and I’ve colored all but 16 pages of it! If you’ve been interested in reading Doctor Who Classics but haven’t yet, this will be a great way to start. Also, if you have been reading it and enjoying it this is another great format for you to enjoy! I personally love the IDW Omnibus format, its a very comfortable way to read a large amount of material. Here’s some product info:
Featuring work from some of the most pominent names in comics including Dave Gibbons and Grant Morrison, follow along as the Doctor plays out his classic tales, all featuring state-of-the-art coloring by Charlie Kirchoff. Stories collected include “City of the Damned,” “Dreamers of Death,” “Iron Legion,” “Spider-god,” “Changes,” and more!
