Celebrating the 25th anniversary of Doctor Who: The Movie starring the Eighth Doctor!
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 The Doctors (Matt Smith and Paul McGann) to end the rule of the warmongering Bad Wolf Empress!
Jody Houser does a solid job of writing the dialogue and pretty much nails the personalities of these two Doctors, who are from very different eras of the series. I particularly liked how the 11th Doctor and 8 start bickering from the moment that they meet. And I also appreciated how Rose had to separate them like a mother separating two little boys. Overall. A fun story with a little bit of a mystery for our two Doctors to solve. I'm looking forward to February for the next issue. Read Full Review
DOCTOR WHO: EMPIRE OF THE WOLF #2 significantly improves on the first issue by spelling out the paradox and improving the narrative flow. While theres barely any action and the first half is very dialog-heavy, the pacing is brisk and the reading is more enjoyable. Read Full Review
As always, a solid slice of entertainment. Houser's scripts are always excellent, with perfect characterisation I just love, and the knowing throwaway lines that just make you smile. My one teeny issue is that sometimes a little padding creeps in, as the story has to usually neatly fit the four issues format, but that's not the writers fault. Roberta Ingranata also never fails to deliver, she seems to particularly enjoy drawing The Eleventh Doctor. Never over-complicates the script, just lays out and draws what's written, keeping the pacing and look in tune with the words Read Full Review
Doctor Who: Empire Of The Wolf #2 continues to lay clues and build intrigue. How did the alternate Rose become the way she is? How will the relationship between "our" Rose and the eleventh Doctor develop? I'm really looking forward to finding out. Read Full Review
