IDW Star Trek & Doctor Who news

A very good Star Trek news from Andrew Steven Harris - IDW editor:

• Although we've made no definitive plans about this, it seems likely that Year Four will be composed of several different miniseries--probably four total, with issues numbering six/five/six/five. That would make 22 issues total, just like 22 episodes of what would have been Year Four of the TV series. When we've reached 22 issues total of Year Four, we will almost certainly want to transition into Year Five, and may very well likely follow the same miniseries format as Year Four. So, barring unforeseen circumstances, TOS will have a mainstream "anchor" title for quite some time, though there will likely be short breaks between the different miniseries so that the writers & artists can regroup.

Chris Ryall posted on his blog a "better late then never" Doctor who news:

• Issue 1 ran late and is now launching in mid-late February, but 2 is done, 3 is being colored, and 4 is in the works now, so we're all finally ready to roll.

The Star Trek news are very exciting. I just hope that David Tichman is not among the writers. As for the Doctor Who news, it looks like I'll have to wait till the end of February for the 1st issue.
