Doctor Omega (series)

Doctor Omega was a 2003 adaptation of Le Docteur Oméga, a 1906 science-fiction novel by French author Arnould Galopin, retold by Jean-Marc and Randy Lofficier. The retelling received a cover design by Gil Formosa whose design evoked the classic 1973 cover of Doctor Who in an Exciting Adventure with the Daleks.

The adaptation changed parts of the original text to have the story more closely relate to the Doctor. Examples of this include mention of Doctor Omega's granddaughter Mademoiselle Susanne and his time at the Academy, as well as giving the character a device that strongly resembles the sonic screwdriver. The DWU substances Validium and Chronodyne are also mentioned.

Synopsis
In a quiet Normandy village, amateur violinist Denis Borel meets a mysterious white-haired scientist known only as Doctor Omega, who is building an amazing spacecraft.

Plot
While going about his daily life Denis Borel is disturbed by the explosion of Doctor Omega's hangar. Marcel, Borel's manservant, warns him not to get involved as the townsfolk believe that Doctor Omega is an evil warlock. Instead Borel orchestrates a chance encounter with the Doctor and is invited back to his laboratory where he reveals his intention to man an expedition to Mars in his very own Space-time vessel and invites Borel to accompany him.
