    Doctor Who: Four Doctors continues to be an amazing event, as despite having already had faith in the creative team, I never expected anything as awesome as this. Having wonderful character interaction and intense developments, this latest issue is most definitely a must have for Whovians. Read Full Review

    The Fandom Post - Josh Begley Aug 29, 2015

    Doctor Who: Four Doctors is living up to its boast of being the big event of the summer. Cornell, Edwards, and Nunes have put together a solid story that pulls from both the television and comic continuity and treats both with the same amount of respect and regard. While there are Easter Eggs, they fit the story, and even new Whovians can jump in and know exactly what is going on. If you're a Who fan, you should be reading this. Read Full Review

    Infinite Comix - Scott Morse Aug 19, 2015

    At the end of issue 2 we now have some answers grouped with an entire new set of Questions. What is the Voord's endgame? Why do they need the Doctors? and what will happen when Ten through Twleve finally meet the War Doctor? While we await these answers and more Cornell and Edwards are giving us a crossover event that is not only redefining how adapted properties should be treated in the comic book medium, but one that is vying for the title of best story of 2015!

    A predictable transition story puts a mild damper on the good visuals, butI'll be back for the next installment. Read Full Review

    Flickering Myth - Villordsutch Aug 19, 2015

    As mentioned in my last review I wanted to see more of what is going on with the War Doctor; this thread has really snagged me the most and to be once again teased with only a few panels is just plain mean. Still now that all three Doctors have arrived at Marinus, it looks like our future issues will wrap around this. Due to the running through the streets " as with running through corridors " it's the minor lines given that are very important and the lines come from the mouth of the Twelfth Doctor as he snaps at the Tenth for his attitude, or when he believes that others see him as the "Scary Doctor". However, it is a running through streets issue and albeit occasionally interesting, when they finally left the streets " and stopped running " the comic became considerably better. Read Full Review

    Nerdly - Dean Fuller Aug 20, 2015

    The TV show often gets accused of being little more than The Doctor running around shouting, especially in David Tennant's day, so I think this is Paul Cornell's wink to the fans by devoting virtually an entire issue to the three Doctor's running around shouting. It is still well-written, well-drawn fun of course, but it is a little light on depth and substance, and pales a little in comparison to the fantastic first issue. Read Full Review

    Big Comic Page - Claire Stevenson Aug 19, 2015

    However, on post-comic contemplation, Im left feeling that the series so far has been very much like a simmering pot; you can feel the promise of a fantastic storyline bubbling under the surface, but it hasnt quite reached boiling point yet. Maybe next time? Read Full Review

    Comic Bastards - Austin Lanari Aug 21, 2015

    Even if you're built in to the demographic of this comic, you're going to have a hard time enjoying it. It requires you to really imagine that this is an episode of the show occurring; otherwise, you have to focus on pages of comics where people are just talking to each other in a minefield of bright colors and stock comic poses. It really seems like three is a crowd, and I don't know how much I want to stick around to see how a fourth curmudgeonly old man fixes things. Read Full Review
