Back in the 90's there was no Dr. Who on the air and no Big Finish to satisfy our Dr. Who needs. The New Dr. Who Adventure Books were just what was needed. Now these books are out of print and well sought after. David J. Howe has a new book called The Who Adventures which goes behind the scenes of Virgin Publishing and how these books came to be. My guest is David J. Howe and we talk about his new book and other things. Keep Collecting. To win a free copy of this book signed by the author, send an email to: DoctorwhoCollectorspodcast@gmail.com with the subject New Who giveaway. Include your full name. We will draw those names on January 31, 2022.

In the many years that Elisabeth Sladen portrayed the most beloved character in Dr. Who, many items had her image whether it be action figures, cardboard cutouts, books, magazines, or trading cards. Who better knows Sarah Jane than the daughter of Elisabeth Sladen, Sadie Miller. Join me with Sadie Miller as we talk about these things. I even give her the 10 question quiz on on how well do you know Sarah Jane. She does very well! If you want to see the video interview, you have to see it on Patreon and be at the $15 level or above.

Wyndham publishers put out a total of 4 hardcover books in 1974 and 1975 using the Allan Wingate imprint. They increased that number to 10 in 1976. These hardcover releases mirror the Target paperback imprints exactly. The growing popularity of Dr. Who in 1976 is clearly evident. The demand for these titles in hardcover is shown by the high prices these are demanding even in ex-library condition. Join me and my guest, Tony Whitt (Target Book Club Podcast), as we do a deep dive into the hardcovers of 1976.

I also have collection protection and the most outrageous offer! Tune in!

How do you celebrate the landmark episode of a podcast you’ve been doing for years now that talks about Target books? Talk about something entirely different! This time, our three-person discussion panel of Tony Whitt, Alyson Fitch-Safreed, and Dalton Hughes is joined by friend of the podcast Larry VanMersbergen for a special bumper volume (hey, that’s a Target reference) for a joint episode with his own show, THE DOCTOR WHO COLLECTORS PODCAST. And what are we discussing? Only the first major crossover between our favorite show and another franchise (and no, I don’t mean the DARK SHADOWS/VAMPIRELLA comic, either): THE DOCTOR AND THE ENTERPRISE!
The not-at-all Target book we will be covering in this episode can be found in four parts (text only) starting at the first link below, or in PDF version at the second link:
