I’m very pleased to say that the latest issue of Doctor Who Magazine includes a look inside Timeslides: The Doctor Who Art of Colin Howard, alongside interviews with Colin, Andrew Skilleter, and Kit Bevan (brother of the late Phil Bevan), in which they discuss the three new books showcasing some of best Doctor Who illustrations from the pre-digital era.
I’ve been privileged enough to have edited Timeslides, so I’m hugely proud to see Col get the recognition he deserves.
That’s not all. DWM #585 also includes:
- A giant double-sided poster!
