The Story

A simple, small story (the synopsis says it all and arguably too much, spoiling things).
This simplicity is a strength, allowing focus on the characters and the overall atmosphere.
Nice callback to early times / an earlier incarnation of the doctor at the end.

The Characters

The Seventh Doctor and Ace are depicted very well. I absolutely buy them acting as they do. Great depiction of the dynamic between the two of them.
The characterization of the “guest cast” remains superficial but shows all aspects needed for the story.

The Art

Arthur Ranson’s art elevates the story for sure. Starting with the first page, I absolutely feel myself transported into the setting. His art brilliantly creates just the right atmosphere and is a big part of telling the story through its visuals.
The lettering by Glib does its part to keep me absorbed in the story.
