Sherlock, Doctor Who Christmas Special and Blade Runner in Titan Comics' December 2019 Solicitations
Titan Comics has reduced their line in recent months, some through losing licenses like Warhammer, reducing the number of Doctor Who and Assassin's Creed comics and generlaly being a bit more brutal with the fat, such as the European and crime titles. A returning Sherlock series, a new arc for Blade Runner, a Doctor Who Christmas special sit well alongside Life Is Strange, Rivers Of London, Shades Of Magic and Assassin's Creed as a leaner, meaner publisher…
Here are Titan Comics' solicitations for December 2019.
