RT comic stories

The Radio Times Comic Strips were a series of five comic stories, printed in the Radio Times, that ran for 42 issues. They started the week after Doctor Who: The TV Movie was shown on BBC1. They all featured the Eighth Doctor and are set between The Eight Doctors and The Dying Days. The first part of the story Descendance was printed in the Radio Times dated 1 - 7th June 1996.

All of the stories were scripted by Gary Russell, art by Lee Sullivan, colour by Alan Craddock and lettering by Alitta Fell.

The stories were ended early due to a change of management at the Radio Times. It was originally planned to last for 60 issues and the fifth story was to be called Deceptions but Coda was made to finish it quickly.

The strips also introduced two new companions, Stacy Townsend and Ssard, that both appeared in the BBC Eighth Doctor Adventure Novel Placebo Effect, a sequel to the comic strips.
