Description:
An omnibus of Doctor Who comics featuring the Tenth Doctor (David
Tennant). It contains “Agent Provocateur” in which a jaunt to
find a milkshake nearly kills the Doctor and Martha and six one-shot
stories, including “The Whispering Gallery”, “The Time
Machination”, “Autopia”, “Cold-Blooded War”, “Room with a
Deja View”, and “Black Death, White Life.” The highlight of the
collection is the multi-part “The Forgotten,” in which the Doctor
can’t remember who he is when he and Martha awake in a museum
dedicated to the ten doctors’ lives.
Opinion:
A must have for any Doctor Who fan, especially the Tenth Doctor. The
first story is fun and whimsical. My favorites of the one-shot comics
was “The Whispering Gallery” as it will have you misting up in
the end. “The Forgotten” is the best. It not only features the
beloved David Tennant but does play homage to the other Doctors that
came before him. Any true die-hard Whovian will enjoy seeing the
prized items of each Doctor (the Third Doctor’s jeep, the Fourth
Doctor’s Jellie Babies) and the fun glimpses into the adventures
of the previous Doctors. Also, I love how the older Doctors’
adventures that were black and white on TV are black and white in the
comic! As with any other collection of stories, the art and the
writing varies from each story to the next. Some art styles where
definitely better (more realistic?) than others but, overall, most of
the stories were fun.
