I was looking forward to the Ninth Doctor’s DWM strips. 

Unfortunately, they’re a disappointing mixed bag, with only a few highlights. 

The first comic, The Love Invasion, is not one of these highlights. 

Written by Gareth Roberts (urgh), there is nothing in this story I liked, except maybe the artwork, which may be the only thing saving The Love Invasion. 

The opening scenes do a good job of setting it all up, only for everything to go downhill the second the villain is introduced, turning the comic into an abysmal Doctor Who Adventures effort. 

It’s a poor story, but there are some very, very small moments I do like. 

Overall, recommended for Ninth Doctor enthusiasts or completionists only.
