IDW has announced another DW one-shot, Room With a Deja View, written by Rich Johnston, cover art (shown below) by Tom Mandrake and drawn by EricJ, to be released in July, coinciding with the first issue of the ongoing series. No word on any companion - I'm guessing there won't be one.

Summary per Rich Johnston (CBR):

It is an honour and a privilege to write for The Doctor. This was a story I’ve had knocking around my head for far too long (most British writers, hell, most British people have at least one Doctor Who story inside them) and I was stunned that it breezed through the IDW and BBC approval processes as easily as it did.

Especially since it’s an internally complex time travel story, a good third of which happens backwards, set on a patchwork space station filled with multiple races all hiding from the rest of the galaxy.

A murder has taken place. Committed by a member of a species that lives in the opposite direction to the timeline. Who, from its own perspective, has not yet committed the crime in question.

A locked house murder mystery where the culprit is clear from the beginning. But the process is anything but. And the Doctor lands smack bang in the middle of it all.

"Doctor Who: A Room With A Deja View," $3.99, published by IDW this July, alongside the first issue of the ongoing series.
