Sop the advice is ignore the troll. Got it. He wouldn't be "trolling" if people hadn't continued to respond to him. If you had all just let the initial comment go, we wouldn't be having this continued discussion about it. He's entitled to think the idea is rubbish. You are entitled to ignore it. Others state they think something is "rubbish" (or similar) without a multi-post digression ensuing. But that is all this individual does. Make negative posts all the time. But of course let's not make them responsible for their actions at all it's all our fault for responding. Pathetic attitude from a mod .

But some on this forum choose to jump on the negative comments he makes more than they jump on the negative comments others make. You yourself frequently make negative declarations about certain stories and releases. But you don't have a raft of posters jumping on you to complain about it every time you do it.

I think it's great that the 'Comic Strip Adaptations' discussion has reached five pages already... this is a hot release! I'm glad everyone is as excited as I am about these!

What a fantastic artist Dave Gibbons is. Clean lines, great page lay-outs, excellent detail and expressive faces.

I haven’t read these comics, so can anyone say if the Iron Legion is “wackier” than more light hearted Fourth Doctor Big Finish audios? I confess to feeling a little bit apprehensive of these DIFFERENT stories. I'm bracing myself for things getting a bit silly because according to the trailer, there is a character named Ironicus, but I've pre-ordered anyway having rather enjoyed the previews. Hopefully I can trust Big Finish not to let things get too silly (or at least, not too often). :-)

Serious and silly in just the right places.

I can't comment on how people choose to react to my posts but the facts speak for themselves concerning the other person. Anyway, they're on my ignore list now.

Maybe Big Finish could get Dave Gibbons to do the cover art or something? Whenever I am listening to those stories it will be Dave's art that is my mind's eye anyway.

Especially because, at the time, didn't the artist draw the images for the story before the *dialogue* was even written?

I don't know if the British ever adopted the Marvel style of comics or if Gibbons worked off of a full script by Mills.
And look, people discussing things on a discussion board. About something we enjoy. What a novel concept.

The Steed and Mrs Peel comic adaptations were somewhat silly, but I adore them. It was just Mr Briggs comments that were playing on my mind.

I just hope Alan Barnes hasn't adapted them to be too silly, as despite their comic strip origins there was some fine Doctor Who stories among them.

I don't know if the British ever adopted the Marvel style of comics or if Gibbons worked off of a full script by Mills. I just opened up the massive tome that is The Dave Gibbons Collection and while he doesn't say explicitly in the intro, he definitely mentions "the scripts" which makes me think I was mis-remembering. (Although in my search, I saw that Iron Legion was at one point rejected as a TV story before being adapted as a comic story. No surprise there, as they'd blow the series budget within ten minutes.)

Pat Mills never used the "Marvel method".

I don't think so. & it depends on how much fuodsgui is given in the script to the artist. Either way I think artists are not given as much credit in the creative process of comics especially when they are transferred to another mwdium. It is usually the writer that is seen as sole creator .

I really want the cover to be like the cover for a graphic novel. It wouldn't be right otherwise.
