Doctor Who Magazine (September)

Take the TARDIS back to Doctor Who Magazine (August)

***1980: Doctor Who - A Marvel Monthly #44***

This was the first issue in the new monthly run and the cover insignia was changed to "Doctor Who - A Marvel Monthly". The change was made to increase sales per issue, making the title more economically viable. The year was no longer included on the front cover, which had a cover price of 30p (UK).

The issue included two comic strips, a feature on The Dominators, a profile of Verity Lambert.

On the right is an alternative cover for #44 as if it were to have continued as a weekly publication.
