Yes, it's another round of that classic guessing game - Animal, Vegetable, Mineral, Abstract [or any combination thereof]. This effort - '03/'04 should address any queries, but then again, may just serve to confuse and baffle which some might say is the point of the game. Patience, integrity and a decent search engine may be useful ....

Aha! British author?
Definitely abstract then, as I found out to my cost a few games back! :-)
Abstract schmabstract.

I'm gonna let someone else have a go.
Jumping in!
Begins with a P? :D

Bo**ox.
However... this doesn't mean my line of questioning is dead... Are the authors Goscinny & Uderzo?

[Uncle Korky] re: Doctor Who and British Author. Don't forget that both Sydney Newman and Anthony Coburn were Australian! :)
[Projoy] Except for Sydney Newman, who was Canadian. But Korky's point was exactly that the roots of Dr Who are non-British. But, of course, the sixty thousand dollar question is "who cares?"
A Marvel character?
[Inks] Marvel? YES * audience applause *
