"Space Oddity," Part 1 of 2: First in a special two-part story written by I, Vampire's Joshua Hale Fialkov! When a cosmonaut attempts the first space walk in 1965, the rest of his crew watches in horror as he's swallowed whole by shadow.

In short however, the few faults here fail to chalk up to what Doctor Who #7 does right. From start to finish, there isn't really a dull moment, even when nothing is happening. Read Full Review
Fialkov crafts a fun story that develops at breakneck speed. It's a fun ride that gives the series some kick after a few slower paced stories. A fun story with historical elements and great art makes for an intriguing Doctor Who story 4/5 Read Full Review
