FIRST IMPRESSIONS: “HOURS 6-9”

The Doom's Day event continues with two Titan Comics issues, covering the next four hours in Doom's mission to find the Doctor.

Hody Houser wrote the Titan story for Time Lord Victorious and returns here. We get another ball in Bridgerton style in issue 1, along with Missy (with very accurately written dialogue, I could hear Michelle Gomez saying it) and cat people (like those in New Earth and Gridlock).

The slightly longer format allows for a bit more time to develop Doom, and we get a look at her assassin skill set as well.

The second half of issue 1 sends Doom back to the Stormcage. Doom meets employees and inmates there and runs into Missy again, who tries to convince everyone she's the Doctor.

The entire first issue feels more like Missy's story, but it does strengthen the idea that Doom is a very capable assassin and isn't easily fooled.

Issue 2 begins with a mission on New Earth. Missy is back but doesn't do a lot this time. Here, they actually have something they want to say as Doom defends a bookshop from a woman who wants to destroy all the old books.

The second half of issue 2 concludes the Titan part of Doom's Day. This is set in a barren world with a lone inhabitant planning a genocide. It's more of the same back-and-forth between Doom and Missy; the former kills the target, and the latter admits she's not the Doctor.

This began promisingly but ran out of steam after issue 1 and feels ultimately like wasted potential.

The art style is pretty good throughout.
