David-Lloyd's character, Ianto Jones, who died in Captain Jack’s arms in the recent Torchwood five-part series 'Children of Earth', gets a new lease of life and takes centre stage once again in this exclusive comic strip - a move that will “delight” all fans of the Doctor Who spin-off.
Talking exclusively to the official Torchwood magazine, David-Lloyd said, "I feel I know this character implicitly. The narrative of this comic focuses predominantly on Ianto, and integrates a number of characters who have been missed by Torchwood's ardent followers."
The story, titled 'Shrouded', is made up of two parts and is as diverse as it is thrilling, says the publishers. Ianto, who struggles with his tumultuous feelings for Captain Jack from the offset, has his world turned upside-down by the visit of a familiar face from the future. Additionally, he is set a mission that could alter the course of life, as he knows it, forever...
'Shrouded' is illustrated by Pia Guerra, the artist of Vertigo Comics' ground-breaking series, Y: The Last Man and more recently, Doctor Who: The Forgotten. Pia won Outstanding comic book artist for 2006 at the Joe Schuster Awards.
