| One of my all-time favorite Doctor Who covers! |
The TARDIS materializes
on a freighter bound for New Earth. (I’m wondering, it this is the New Earth
the Doctor and Rose meet the Face of Boe in series 2 of the new Doctor Who…?
Anyways) The freighter is attacked by werewolf-like creatures and they manage
to infect the Doctor! In classic Timey Wimey fashion, the Doctor locks himself
in the TARDIS with K9 for 3 months searching for a cure where on the freighter,
only 10 minutes have passed. The true show is revealed at the end as we learn
that the Doctor’s most dreaded foes are behind these werewolf attacks.
Monsters abound in this
issue as the backup features complete the Cyberman story from the last issue
and the Doctor introduces a short story about the Sontarians. The art of the
Sontarians looks nothing like the classic design, but it’s got an EC
Comics-like twist ending that I enjoyed.
The middle pin-up and
trivia section had several pics that look nothing like Leela or the Brigadier,
but the history of American Doctor Who conventions were really cool. I wish I
could go.
Rating 8 out of 10
stars.
Wibbly Wobbly, Timey
Wimey Scale: 10 out of 10.
