Slott is best known for his work on superhero comics, including The Amazing Spider-Man, She-Hulk, Silver Surfer, The Superior Spider-Man, Tony Stark: Iron Man, The Mighty Avengers, and Fantastic Four, but he is also a big Doctor Who fan. “One of the worst secrets in comics is that I am one of the world's biggest Whovians!” he said in a statement accompanying Titan’s announcement. “I've been regularly watching Doctor Who since the Tom Baker years, and am deeply devoted to every incarnation of the show! I've been waiting to write stories for the Doctor my whole life!”
