Review of Apotheosis by 15thDoctor

This review contains spoilers
A storyline bringing together elements from all of Matt Smith’s comic book adventures so far sounds like a sweet idea, but in truth the general quality and memorability of these stories compared to the 9th and 10th Doctor’s equivalents is poor, so it’s a celebration of the mediocre.
The nuns are well done, neither goodies nor baddies but characters with an understandable motivation. The aging device was intriguing when applied at a small scale but a bit tiresome once Amy becomes an old lady - as you know she’s not going to age up significantly in the comics.
The idea of a time travelling space girl with the powers of the TARDIS is exciting and camp and fun. Looking forward to see where it goes next.
