Home made covers for a collection of 1970s' comic scans of the Third Doctor. From his regeneration the Doctor appears in TV Comic between issues 944-999 plus holiday specials and annuals. From the start of Countdown (later TV Action) between 1971-1973 he was drawn with superior art by Harry Lindfield and Gerry Haylock, who continued in TV Comic until early Tom Baker strips and was replaced by John Canning once more. The third Doctor appeared in a couple of strips in Doctor Who Magazine and Tenth Doctor IDW comics but has more recently had a 5 part adventure in Titan Comics (2016)
