30th ANNIVERSARY EDITION

It was then, and still is now, overwhelming to see a Doctor and his Companion looking at the magazines that I created… what an astounding cover for this issue!  This was the first of two issues that we released at the same time because of all the content we suddenly had from the 30th Anniversary Celebration of DWCV and the Peter Davison event.

THE GREAT BREAK EDITION

Was I talking about the show, or was I talking about Sonic? Turned out to be about both, although I was intending to keep going at the time. Thankfully, after a break, Sonic Screwdriver managed to survive without me and is still going strong today! A return to the usual format here.

BREAKING NEWS EDITION

Another wrap-around news section and the second edition of Theta Morbius Times.  More brilliant work from JAMES GARDINER.  As this was the end of his Year 11 studies, he sadly had to stop making them when he began Year 12 in 2012. He should have gone on to edit Sonic Screwdriver after me!

EXTRA! EXTRA! EDITION

And now, for something completely different… With a lack of contributions from members, I decided to throw our support behind the incredible creative explosion that was JAMES GARDINER. The Year 11 high school student had created an online Doctor Who magazine called Theta Morbius Times and, because I love to encourage creativity and get people’s work published for them (I now do that as my job), I decided to do it for him.  It is amazing work.

END OF AN ERA EDITION

What an amazing issue this is. With the tragic death of Elisabeth Sladen and Nicholas Courtney so close together, it certainly was the End Of An Era, so we did this double edition for farewell SARAH JANE SMITH and the BRIGADIER. We also have Exclusive Interviews with Colin Baker and John Leeson.    

To top it all off, we have an interview with… Me!  I was interviewed by our regular contributor Jack of All Trades, and for those who were “on the inside” they know how miraculous that was. This section also includes a page of all the amazing free giveaways and other items I created through Vistaprint… when they used to be inexpensive.

A CHRISTMAS EDITION

Another amazing cover of Doctor Who cast reading copies of the magazines that I created…  Silvester McCoy, Paul McGann and Sophie Aldred.  Exclusive to DWCV interviews with Sylvester McCoy, Sophie Aldred and Bonnie Langford thanks to our wonderful Manuel Bouw. In other areas, the cracks are beginning to show… how the hell did we keep going for over another year?

McDOCTOR ISSUE

Another variety-packed Issue. Also has the very first Separate Fan Comic of Manuel Bouw’s amazing work.

I say in the Editorial for this Issue: “…it takes forever to get these Sonic Screwdriver Magazines completed … But I love doing them, particularly when I hold the first printed colour copy in my hand … that makes me so, so very proud … where else could I have created so many magazine works-of-art without ever doing a relevant course in my entire life??? Just imagine what I could do if I had done training!!!” Well, now I realise that any Course I could have done would only have made something easier or quicker, but also put imaginary limits and restrictions on my creativity that would make my work more like “someone else’s work”… the best Training I could ever have is exactly what I had… this magazine and eventually I went on to create AVA ORION MEDIA where I have, so far, made it possible for 17 amazing books to be ‘out there’, ‘self-published’, and the writers have felt the Magic of ‘holding their published book in their hand’! It is Miraculous!
