CELEBRATING THE 25TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE EIGHTH DOCTOR'S DEBUT!
Trapped in a parallel universe, Rose Tyler believed her adventures with the Doctor were over. Now, pulled by a mysterious energy into this reality, she must work with two Doctors - the eighth Doctor and the eleventh Doctor - to end the tyrannical rule of the warmongering BAD WOLF EMPRESS!
Doctor Who: Empire of the Wolf is a wonderful blend of old and new. Although these characters have been seen before, Housers exploration of them brings something fresh to all of them. There is a beautiful understanding of where these people are in their separate lives and it really changes the dynamic when they are together. There is a real warmth to the books that stem from the heartfelt dialogue and adoration all of the creators appear to have for the figures on the page. This is a special comic and so rewarding to those who loved Rose. Read Full Review

Jody Houser has such an expansive playground to work with here, and she navigates it beautifully. When the Eighth Doctor meets Rose, the scene fits right into the Who-niverse. The collection continues in a fun way. These time-traveling tales are mysterious so far and are gearing up to be quite the story! Read Full Review
Doctor Who: Empire of the Wolf #1 achieves the considerably difficult job of uniting several elements of the franchise that have appeared across the past 25 years. Within the first issue, it has already begun a complicated plot and captured the distinct voices of its cast, all while looking gorgeous. In coming issues, if Houser takes a moment to indulge in the emotional components that make the Doctors' and Rose's relationship so compelling, Empire of the Wolf has the makings of a truly great Doctor Who tale.

This was very much a set up issue, but this has all the hallmarks of being an absolute classic. Time and Space might not be big enough for all this fun. Read Full Review
DOCTOR WHO: EMPIRE OF THE WOLF #1 gives every Doctor Who fan all the Easter Eggs and fan service they could possibly want in a scant first issue. The art captures the look and feel of the actors while remaining organic to the comic medium. That said, the narrative flow, much like the broken timeline, is a confusing jumble. Whether thats intentional or not remains to be seen. Read Full Review
A perfectly enjoyable comic that kicks off whats sure to be an exciting comic storyline, paying tribute to many years of Doctor Who history and celebrating the 8th Doctors legacy. Read Full Review
