Fifth Doctor comic stories explained

The Fifth Doctor comic stories is a collection of the off-screen adventures of the fifth incarnation of the Doctor, the protagonist of the hit syfy series, Doctor Who. It focuses on the medical and Syfy genre making it a grey's anatomy meets star trek.

History

The Doctor Who Magazine launched the Fifth Doctor's comic strip adventures with the Doctor travelling on his own. Later a number of new and familiar characters were included. (These decisions were largely determined by the issue of image rights).

While most of the adventures occur within their own continuity, direct references to the television series make placing these adventures into on-screen continuity problematic.

While Doctor Who Magazine mostly used the current Doctor in the regular comic strip adventures, Fifth Doctor comic strip stories have appeared from time to time in the regular magazine, specials and in other publications since his television retirement.
