Polystyle purchased TV Publications, Ltd., which published TV Comic when the run of Doctor Who comic strips began. While they were in business, Polystyle published TV Comic, Countdown and TV Action, all of which featured a Doctor Who strip at some stage. In 1979, Polystyle lost their licence with the BBC to Marvel UK, who began publishing Doctor Who Weekly. File:Real worldStub.png fr:Polystyle Publications, Ltd.
