Reviews

[Finlay O'Riordan · Rating 4 out of 5]

The second issue in this series focuses on Methelough (that's the one-eyed purple tentacle monster) and gives her a surprising amount of characterisation for one comic strip. It's also a credit to the authors for being able to do that without giving her one word of proper dialogue.

I found this one to be both quite endearing and surprising at the same time. Unless they decide to pull a bait and switch in a later issue, it seems like this may be one of TITANS most ballsy Doctor Who comic ranges, and I'm all for it.

We also have a few more alien cameos on top of the ones in last month's release, including Zygons and Saturnyns. Nice to see them again.
