Introducing Paradise Towers:
BUILD HIGH FOR HAPPINESS! Cutaway Comics’ third title is a sequel to the Season 24 Doctor Who adventure, Paradise Towers
Issue 1 Synopsis:
Years have passed since Kroagnon, the great architect, tried to wipe out the inhabitants of Paradise Towers. Now paradise promises possibility! But Paradise Towers past may come back to haunt it: Kangs are disappearing and there is a killer on the loose. Viv-2, a young Kang hungry for adventure, keeps hearing a mysterious voice...
Paradise Found continues the story of the original TV serial including the diverse range of characters: impractically precise Caretakers, the weird and wonderful Rezzies and the Kangs, roaming gangs of girls.
Stephen Wyatt adds: “I’m frankly amazed (and touched) that people are still interested in Paradise Towers 35 years on. It was fascinating to watch Sean and the creative team picking up the baton and running with it. It’s a new world and I feel lucky to have been part of it.”
Written by Sean Mason based on characters and situations created by Paradise Towers’ original writer Stephen Wyatt and featuring art by Silvano Beltramo, Paradise Towers: Paradise Found is a four-part US-size comic miniseries!
