Rokhandi World, SERVEYOUinc City Synopsis When the Doctor last visited Rokhandi, it was a planet of such stunning natural beauty that an entire solar system had sworn to preserve it. What better place to take new companion Alice Obiefune on her first off-world adventure? And it would have been a magical vacation... if the TARDIS hadn't overshot by fifty years. Now the austerity-hit pleasure planet has become a "theme safari" corporate hell, overrun by eerie, giant-headed mascots and a trillion tramping tourist feet! But there's something more sinister at play than rampant commercialism and ecological devastation... and the Doctor and Alice need to uncover all of Rokhandi's long-buried secrets if they're to escape with their lives!

I loved the set up in this comic for what seems to be a larger arc! The Eleventh Doctor really suits these timey-wimey, meeting-people-in-the-wrong-order plots like this one hints at. I’m excited to continue reading and see what SERVEYOUINC really is! thewomanintheship View profile Like Liked 0 20 February 2025 · 173 words Review by 15thDoctor Spoilers This review contains spoilers! The brain washed theme park threads of this story are rather lovely, ideas we’ve seen before but with a fresh coat of paint. The various references to people vomiting at theme parks are consistently funny. Alice does not get as much to do in this story as Gabby does around this era in the 10th Doctor titan comics, she is more or less in the same place after her first alien world as she was beforehand. This simple one shot might not be the ideal place for fleshing out her character. The story starts to falter a little when it moves onto an alien who is essentially draining park goer’s life force. It’s a trope that has been done too many times already in Doctor Who and almost always ends with The Doctor overloading the alien creature’s consciousness - as it does here. I am intrigued by the epilogue though, a big bad who has met The Doctor in his future and knows what is to come - exciting! 15thDoctor View profile Like Liked 0 18 December 2024 · 35 words Review by uss-genderprise Spoilers 2 This review contains spoilers! I love me a good anti-capitalist message, but this story just doesn't really do much with it. We get another monster that feeds on emotions and very little else. It's enjoyable enough, but pretty bland. uss-genderprise View profile Like Liked 2 15 August 2024 · 52 words Review by JayPea 3 Fun setting, nice set up, decent plot, nothing too much to write home about. I do like that it’s doing more with the the new companion, showing her skills and more contrasting her depression with surroundings, also some fun set ups. Do wish it was a longer first story too though JayPea View profile Like Liked 3 20 June 2024 · 46 words Review by Bongo50 4 This one's alright. It's clearly setting up something bigger and I think it's done that quite well, but its plot is not the best. I felt that the resolution was too sudden and unjustified. The setting is a cool idea. The characters and art are solid. Bongo50 View profile Like Liked 4 Show All Reviews (7) Open in new window Statistics AVG. Rating50 members 3.34 / 5 GoodReads AVG.
