Review of Ophiuchus by Owen

17 February 2025

This review contains spoilers!

Ah, we couldn’t keep the streak of improvements coming of course. An entire story of things just happening because Richard said so. The bit at the end where the time lord regenerates into a woman and Nyssa asks about it would make it better, if they actually did something with it and didn’t cut off right after. Like c’mon you’ve got a whole five pages for this! The longest story yet! Could’ve at least used that extra one for some interesting or fun back and forth between characters, but instead we have a whole page of “I’m going to declare for no particular reason whatsoever why I’m here, now the Doctor is going to walk to a wall, which will magically turn out to be the entrance because I said so” and then the time lord renegade doing more expository dialogue and saying “hey doctor we should do this” and the doctor saying “hey we should do this” and then they do this and that’s it. Stories like these make me believe I could be a scriptwriter. They’re very motivating.

Very clean drawings, idem with the colouring. The part where Fivey drinks the regeneration juice or whatever he’s supposed to be doing looks pretty neat (and very silly).
