And now for something completely different:


1.  Yes, I know that Marvel is repeating the Dr. Who comics from their
    weekly (now monthly) in the U.K.
    
2.  I am quite aware that the Tom Baker persona of the Doctor is probably
    the favourite of North Amerian fandom.

However;

If I am going to pay $1.50 for this mag, I want to see something for it!!
I think it was the combination of the lateness of the magazine, the re-hash
from the old Premiere, and the #$%&'%()0("#  Dalek story in the back.

If they had to wait 6 months after they announce the appearance of this 
magazine, I want to see some new material!  I feel as if Marvel is going
for some really hard-core fan abusing in this.	They can print 6 year old
strips, and make a large amount of money on it.  I realise that they aren't
in the business out of the goodness of their hearts, but they seem to be
inreasingly crossing over the line of sheer abuse.
