    Titan Comics has announced their 2017 Doctor Who crossover, The Lost Dimension. From CBR:

    This crossover will be slightly different than Four Doctors and Supremacy of the Cybermen in that it's not a mini-series per se. There's an Alpha issue and an Omega issue bookending the series, and in between the story will be told in either Doctor-specific specials or in the ongoing series for, say, the tenth and eleventh Doctors.

    The Alpha issue in August is by Nick Abadzis, George Mann, and Cavan Scott, with art by Rachael Stott and Rob Fernandes.

    I wonder if the Void is the same Void from Series 2 and, later, "The Next Doctor."

    I hope this one is better than Supremacy of the Cybermen was.

    Yeah, Supremacy was pretty bad.

    Good in that it might cut down on the delays. Bad in that it's not likely to cleanly line up with the trades.

    Who would have specials, though? All of the Doctors mentioned currently have ongoing series... (Unless #15 is going to be the last issue for Nine?)

    Here's the order:

    August
    Part 1: The Lost Dimension Alpha
    Part 2: Ninth Doctor Special

    September
    Part 3: Tenth #3.9
    Part 4: Eleventh #3.10
    Part 5: Special #1
    Part 6: Twelve #3.9

    October
    Part 7: Special #2
    Part 8: The Lost Dimension Omega

    That wouldn't be the worst thing in the world. The sales numbers on Titan's Doctor Who comics have collapsed from the heights they were at circa Four Doctors, and I think part of that is due to Titan publishing too much Doctor Who product. Four ongoing series a month may be too much for the market to bear.

    I haven't kept up, but are the Ninth Doctor comics worth the read? I stopped purely because of fatigue - too much audio and TV, ironically.
