Adam comic books issue 1

1st printing - DOES NOT INCLUDE DUST JACKET. By Douglas Adams and James Goss.

Intergalactic war? That's just not cricket... or is it? The Doctor promised Romana the end of the universe, so she's less than impressed when what she gets is a cricket match. But then the award ceremony is interrupted by eleven figures in white uniforms and peaked skull helmets, wielding bat-shaped weapons that fire lethal bolts of light into the screaming crowd. The Krikkitmen are back. Millions of years ago, the people of Krikkit learned they were not alone in the universe, and promptly launched a xenophobic crusade to wipe out all other life-forms. After a long and bloody conflict, the Time Lords imprisoned Krikkit within an envelope of Slow Time, a prison that could only be opened with the Wicket Gate key, a device that resembles - to human eyes, at least - an oversized set of cricket stumps. From Earth to Gallifrey, from Bethselamin to Devalin, from Krikkit to Mareeve II to the far edge of infinity, the Doctor and Romana are tugged into a pan-galactic conga with fate as they rush to stop the Krikkitmen gaining all five pieces of the key. If they fail, the entire cosmos faces a fiery retribution that will leave nothing but ashes.

1st printing. By Gareth Roberts and Douglas Adams. An unproduced Doctor Who script by Douglas Adams, transformed into an original novel! The Doctor's old friend and fellow Time Lord, Professor Chronotis, has retired to Cambridge University, taking with him a few little souvenirs. Among them, carelessly, he took The Worshipful and Ancient Law of Gallifrey. Even more carelessly, he has loaned this immensely powerful book to clueless graduate student Chris Parsons, who intends to use it to impress girls. The Worshipful and Ancient Law is among the most dangerous artifacts in the universe; it cannot be allowed to fall into the wrong hands - and the hands of the sinister Skagra are unquestionably the wrongest ones possible! Softcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 416 pages, Text Only.
