Such a great comic. It delves masterfully into the duality at the hearts of all Doctors - and especially this one - while giving the TARDIS team interesting things to do. I think Ryan shines most here, arguably more than he ever did on TV, but Yaz is also once again characterised by her deep love and concern for 13. I love that she is the one to convince the others to get out of the TARDIS and help 13 against her will.

This story builds upon the previous issues, and upon the Dogbolter family, created by Steve Parkhouse in the 80s for the Fifth and Sixth Doctors' comics. This gives the DWM comic strip some nice internal continuity. The epic scale of the story and the parts in the Catastrophia also echo the Eighth Doctor's story The Glorious Dead, which was written by the same author as this one - Scott Gray.

Finally, Mother G - a mysterious but helpful figure who had cameoed in every story up to this one and finally gets to play a bigger role - is a great idea for a character, and I hope she gets brought back at some point.

This was excellent! Are we really not getting any more 15th Doctor stories from Titan??

The art style is exceptional, very different from the DWM comics. It has a rough, sort of fantasy quality which really fits this story. Ruby and the Doctor are very well-written and the villain fits perfectly in the Pantheon - arguably, the concept is better than many of his televised counterparts.

I have nothing but praise for the story and characters - the mystery of the little girl is especially well-teased and satisfactorily resolved. The third issue might be the strongest - the fear dimension is both a great idea in itself and a great convoy for the increasingly surreal art style. What a joy to see this Doctor face off against the Cybermen, albeit in an oblique way, now that he will never get to face them on screen.

The story also goes to great lengths to fit into the overarching tropes of this era. I will say the supposed appearance of Susan Twist was unnecessary, but the God of Fear, his genius breaking of the fourth wall, and reference to the one who waits were all great. I really liked getting to spend more time in the TARDIS as well. I want more!

I wanted to read this because I wanted more Belinda (pre-forced motherhood) and I was mostly satisfied. She is well-written, as is her relationship with the Doctor.... although this is post-Lux Belinda, with no hint of her initial wariness against the Doctor. She loves and admires him as much as Ruby did, and there is unfortunately no conflict at all. Thankfully, she spends time on her own, and gets to put her nurse skills and instincts to good use. She is clever and has a lot of agency. I really hope we get more stories like that with her!

The Doctor is perfectly written, warm and empathetic and kind, and the story is interesting albeit a bit basic, and fits in well among the televised stories - though many references seem shoehorned in. I really liked Adama's character, and their joy at finally being able to fly again in the end was palpable. The side characters aren't all winners but they're likeable enough.

Paradoxally, not being able to hear the titular scream let my imagination run wild - this was a very pleasant read.
