In this Blue Water Comics offering, we’re giving the biographies
of 4 actors to portray the Doctor. Along with the first actor to ever play the
Doctor, William Hartnell, this book introduces readers to Tom Baker (4th), Paul McGann (8th), and Matt Smith (11th and current Doctor.)
It’s a very sweet tribute to the long running science fiction
series that is just days away from celebrating 50 years! Each biography is
great as is the art. I like that a different artist is used for each actor and
the segue ways are beautifully done as a tribute to the Doctor.
TO my knowledge, there hasn’t been a second issue. That’s a shame,
because there are 7 more actors who could use the bio treatment (8 if you could
Peter Cushing’s movie tenure as Doctor Who, not The Doctor. I would love to
read more. I’m not sure if Blue Water didn’t make more because this didn’t sell
or if IDW or the BBC ordered a cease and desist. If anyone knows, please let me
know.
Rating: 9 out of 10 stars.
