With the recent acquisition of the above issue, first released in 1980, I've returned 42 years into the past and filled a gap in my collection. When Doctor Who Weekly first came out, I bought it regularly for at least the first dozen issues, then gave up on it until #33, when it started reprinting The Daleks strip from TV Century 21. However, I only noticed that issue 38 was missing last week while looking through a box, though it's possible I knew of its absence at the time and had simply forgotten. Anyway, it's here now and only cost a few measly quid to obtain, though considering that #41 is the last weekly ish I own, perhaps I should thinking about plugging a few more gaps.
So a 42 year span seemingly wiped out at a stroke with the addition of one missing issue, allowing me to return in my mind to the early '80s and remedy an oversight that should never have happened - a thrilling adventure in time and space indeed! Incidentally, I've used the seller's photo, 'cos I'm too tired to shift a pile of comics from off my scanner - I'll add my own pic at a later date.
If anyone would like to see a cover gallery of all 21 of my Doctor Who Weekly issues then let me know before I put them away in a box in my cupboard again.
