Combine all of the above with the fact that Titan has chosen one of the most beloved Doctors in history to feature along with his companion and UNIT, and you have a winning formula for a great story and a way for Whovians to get their Doctor fix in the long months between episodes.

This first issue is a complete set-up of the players, the threats, and the risks. Then the final page reveal drops, changing all the stakes. Personally, it sent me into fits of squeals of delight, over the moon, and ready to pre-order issue 2 on ComiXology. Obviously Cornell, Jones and Hi-Fi are ready to do more for the audience than just your standard alien invasion story. It will be enough for any classic fan to cry out, “Oh, my giddy aunt!” Read Full Review

While light on plot Doctor Who: The Third Doctor #1 is a tonally perfect and kinetic start to Titan Comics' newest Classic Who series. Paul Cornell adds another incarnation of the famous Time Lord to his growing collection with a fast-paced first issue with huge implications for the rest of the series. Artists Christopher Jones and Hi-Fi keep pace with Cornell, keeping the visuals just as in tone with the classic series as Cornell's script. Though the stars await the Doctor, The Third Doctor #1 shows that there is plenty of adventure to be found on planet Earth. Read Full Review

Overall, Doctor Who: The Third Doctormore than exceeded my expectations, delivering a book that's fun, exciting and perfect for longtime fans.

The Third Doctor isn't going to regenerate the medium of comics, but this is a wonderfully warm - not to mention shamelessly nostalgic comic which will gladden the heart of old and new Doctor Who fans. It manages to capture the essence of what makes Doctor Who tick, and it's one of the few to manage it this successfully. Read Full Review

Without giving away the issue's biggest surprise, it has to be said that Cornell and Jones have pulled a fast one us. The story that we're gonna get isn't what we expected, and that cliffhanger has us really excited to see who else might show up. It's one of those moments that would have been really difficult to pull off in live-action, but it's perfect for the comic book realm. Long time Doctor Who fans are gonna love this twist, and even fans who have only watched the modern series should pick this up. This is classic Who with a modern perspective. Read Full Review

As for the comic itself, the artwork isnt particularly compelling. The writing is better, moving the story swiftly from point to point; Number Three is quirky and funny without being annoyingly self-aware, and the other characters do their part. All in all, its the comics equivalent of a British television episode from the sixties. Im not complaining. Its a fun comic, and an interesting take on the Doctor. Read Full Review

It was about what you would expect from a first issue of Doctor Who–lots of setup and references from the series, and hinting at bigger things with a cameo from the "Master" at the beginning of the book. It's likely the problems for the Doctor are going to get much worse before the series concludes. How the plot continues from this point will tell whether it is a fitting tribute to Jon Pertwee's character or just a chance for a few fans to revisit an old favorite. Read Full Review
