Not even sure if anyone here reads this, but I figured after putting out over 200 issues, it at least deserves its own thread. So we start with issue 202. And this is what the official DWA site has to say: Doctor Who Adventures Issue 202Are you still feeling the winter chill? Well, we’ve got something to warm you up this week -a load of facts about the Sun! We’ve also got a sneak peek at some of the cool stuff that’s coming up in Doctor Who, and all our usual scares, monsters and secrets. Also in this issue… *Learn how to draw a Cyberman *Out of control *The doctor saves the day *Monster watch *Undersea comic action *Find it! and much more

I read it ... not every week though - usually when I like the free gift This week's issue (202) came with a free pencil tin, pencil, rubber, & ruler. Next week's is a Dalek special so I will be getting that

Like PRG, I usually pick this up if there is something cool that comes free with it. Even then I don't spend much time actually reading it because its mainly childrens trivia and fun stuff. There is sometimes something interesting worth looking at though.

This really is only worth it for the free stuff. There isnt, in my opinion, anything in there that would really appeal to the older fans but I can definately see why kids would love it.

They have been known to slip a few spoilers in there though that aren't in DWM so its sometimes worth having a little look

I'm not too surprised. DWM hasn't been so good over the last few months

Ok, there really is a fez in this week's DWA - it's a soft folding one but it's fez nonetheless. I'm wearing mine as I type

Stick them on your window. I did that once when I was a kid and TOTP magazine gave away 500 stickers of pop stars. My mum went nuts
