Comic strip adaptation of the 1965 Amicus film 'Dr. Who and the Daleks' written by Milton Subotsky and Terry Nation. The film itself was based on the original TV serial written by Nation and broadcast in 1963/4 in the BBC TV series Doctor Who. This was the first American-produced comic based upon the Doctor Who franchise, and the only full-length work of this nature until Doctor Who (IDW Publishing, 2008 series) - all intervening US publications will be of British comic strips.
