Today in Comics History, November 23, 1963: "It's my birthday! The Doctor took me ice skating on the River Thames in 1814. He got Stevie Wonder to sing for me under London Bridge. "Stevie Wonder sang in 1814?" "Yes, he did! But you must never tell him."

So, there are parodies of science fiction...




from "Timing Is Everything!" in Alf #38 (Marvel, February 1991), script by Michael Gallagher, pencils by Rusty Haller, inks by Marie Severin, colors by George Roussos (?), letters by Rick Parker (?)




...and then there are parodies of science fiction redux:


from "Doctor What" in Futurama Comics #32 (Bongo, July 2007), script by Ian Boothby, pencils by Mike Kazaleh, inks by Andrew Pepoy, colors by Nathan Hamill, letters by Karen Bates

Anyway, Happy Birthday, Doctor! May you have at least 950 more!



from Marvel Premiere #57 [Doctor Who] (Marvel, December 1980), originally published in Doctor Who Weekly #2 (Marvel UK, 24 October 1979); script by Pat Mills and John Wagner; pencils, inks, and letters by Dave Gibbons, colors for Marvel Premiere by Andy Yanchus
