The adventures of the Tenth Doctor continue from Titan Comics, now released in the first-ever collected edition. See below for preview pages and a review of Doctor Who: The Tenth Doctor Volume 1 “Revolutions Of Terror.”
The Tenth Doctor thought he was done with new companions after Donna’s tragic exit – but that was before he met Gabriella ‘Gabby’ Gonzalez during an incursion of psychic parasites in Brooklyn, New York.
Stuck running her father’s Laundromat, Gabby always dreamed of horizons beyond Sunset Park – whether that was going to college, making it as an artist, or just escaping her life for a while.
Now she’s traveling the cosmos as the Doctor’s latest companion – and life couldn’t be more exciting!
Battling invisible creatures on the Day of the Dead, uncovering a galactic conspiracy in the universe’s most famous art gallery… the only downside is the constant threat of death!
Nick Abadzis has really managed to capture Ten’s weirdness and quippyness in this volume. He tosses off phrases that hint at a huge yawning chasm of knowledge in his head, without sounding pompous or smug about it. (Well, only a little smug anyway. Scratch that, he’s very smug, but it’s really fun to watch.)
Elena Casagrande is walking that fine line between making her drawings of Ten look like David Tennant, without making every picture of him look like it was painfully copied from a photograph. I think she does better than a lot of artists have. Her other characters look a little more relaxed, but that’s because we, the readers, aren’t going to be judging them against a living, breathing person, so that’s much easier to pull off. Overall her art is very dynamic and beautiful to look at, it complimented the writing extremely well.
All in all the first five chapters in Titan Comics’ Tenth Doctor saga are very fun to read, they’re taking very good care of our Doctor.
