The Third Doctor’s Earth-bound exile has been lifted. But before he can set out on new adventures, an alien invasion appears to threaten Earth! It’s the devious work of an old enemy, Salamander, a former dictator with a startling resemblance to the Second Doctor! Now, forming an uneasy alliance with the Master, the Doctor and UNIT set out to stop him – but are they too late to stop his plans as he takes them all back into the past.

    While it is sad that Paul Cornell is making this is final ‘Doctor Who' story. It is a great story to end on. Read Full Review

    While it may not be as witty or as action packed as the previous issues, Doctor Who: The Third Doctor #5 still stands as a confident thesis for the franchise's offbeat yet engaging style of storytelling, and is another strong showing from one of Titan's most consistently cool art teams. As a fan, I have to admit, it is sad seeing Paul Cornell leave the TARDIS and head for other characters and IPs. That said, I am glad to have gotten the stories I got from him and even more so that his last foray stayed true to both the content and tone of the Doctor Who that fans want. So long, Paul Cornell; thanks for all the fun, and for The Third Doctor #5. Read Full Review

    Major Spoilers - Matthew Peterson Feb 25, 2017

    This issue is interesting in that it applies a modern sensibility to the 1970s Doctor Who stories and does so in comic-book format, which means that there's no effects budget to worry about, Even so, it's successful as a single issue, as a final chapter of the story, and most of all as a Third Doctor adventure.

    For me, it has reaffirmed once more a love for 'my' Doctor Who. For five issues, he reversed the polarity once more. Read Full Review
