The City of the Damned has ideas that are like catnip to me. A society where emotions are prohibited and bubbling under the surface. Where any show of individuality is a defect punishable by death. Again the comics are exhibiting how they can explore big ideas on a scale that would be difficult to handle on TV. It's a very well paced drama.
Discussions of “primitive transmat beams” and cables plugged into the back of people’s heads - you can see a straight line between this and stories that make it to the screen decades later. In and amongst these big emotions, and constantly developing plot, are some genuinely funny moments of humour. It’s quite different from the television show of any era, but it’s very much Doctor Who.
