Review of Farewell, Sarah Jane by joeymapes21

16 June 2025

A perfect epilogue to The Sarah Jane Adventures, and Sarah Jane herself, providing such a beautiful testament to a wonderful companion and wonderful actress in a touching and poignant way. Absolutely devastating, but so touching at the same time. So wonderful!

Review of The Dying Breed by joeymapes21

16 June 2025

This review contains spoilers!

While the narrative itself is quite simple, and often done, the added detail and world building is hugely commendable and elevates this hugely. A fantastic story which provides a great insight into the Lupari, which links so well to the Flux. Building on the Lupari as a species, and developing their lore and background is worthwhile, while also laying the groundwork to provide deeper understanding of the events of Flux.

Review of Gridlock by joeymapes21

15 June 2025

It may sound so simple in it's premise, but it's executed so perfectly, and so delicately layered within the script, that this becomes a true gem of the show!

This develops the character and relationship between the Doctor and Martha so well, really lending to the setting and tension that is built between the pair. The character work for the Doctor, giving him a chance to discuss Gallifrey is so poignant, and sets his role as last of the Time Lords with brilliant groundwork for the rest of the season too.

Throughout the script, layers are added to consider drugs and their effects, as well as the importance of faith, which are handled so well too.

Simply stunning.

Review of The Waters of Mars by joeymapes21

12 June 2025

Everything about this is wonderful. Mars and the Bowie Base are so wonderfully realised that everything feels just so real, which adds to the dread, claustrophobia, terror and unnerve. The crew, while not all given the same depth universally, are all given some insights to really root for them, with Adelaide Brook being such a fantastic character.

The Flood are terrifying, and such a wonderful concept, and building fear from such a mundane thing.

And it leads into the Time Lord Victorious, which is such an interesting concept, and adds depth to the Doctor.

Review of Oblivion by joeymapes21

12 June 2025

This review contains spoilers!

Continues the great character work and provides a really earned and deserved exit for Izzy, in a compelling story touching on issues of class. A really solid story!

Review of Uroboros by joeymapes21

12 June 2025

Builds on well from Ophidius, and begins to set the stage well for everything to come, continuing on this plotline. Beautiful art work, however, the setting feels to surreal, which I always find challenging to ground in when reading a comic.

Review of The Krillitane Feint by joeymapes21

12 June 2025

Wonderful way to develop and delve into the Krillitane, with some brilliant new insights into their species. The story itself is fantastic, and delves well into what makes the villain of the story, with brilliant performances from the main cast.
