REVIEW:
OOoooooh Doctor Who. I do love the show (even though I am embarrassingly behind in the new stuff D:) so when my friend gave this to me for my birthday I was excited to watch it.

So the story follows the 10th Doctor (yayy - my favorite!) and his companion Martha (my least favorite) on another adventure. The come across Baltazar who is looking for the mythical and legendary spaceship that will grant anybody's deepest desire. Of course the Doctor and Martha decide this is NOT a good idea because Baltazar is a baddie so they decide to try and find it and stop Baltazar. 

A fun adventure for sure and I wasn't sure what was going to happen. It was fun to see the 10th Doctor again since he has always been my favorite. LOVE HIM! Martha is meh like usual. I don't mind her personality and the actress is good, but I LOATH her obsession-y love for the Doctor. I get it...I would feel the same if I was her, but it just contradicts her strong-woman personality to be so gaga over him. It is annoying because the Doctor has made it clear time and time again he wants to be just her companion and friend. DUH, he is still in love with good ol' Rose. But yes...even though I wish this adventure was with a different companion, I still enjoy it anyways. 

The art was interesting, but kinda hard to look at at. I get what they were attempting, but it seemed SO cheap. I wish it had been normal animation. This worked, but I wasn't a crazy fan of it. 

Oooo! That bird made me sad. Poor thing. 

Now the ending was certainly good. I SO did not expect what happened to have happened. Very good. Made me sad though....I wanted this to be longer. I miss the 10th Doctor something fierce!

In the end, this was a fun watch for Doctor Who fans. If you are new to this world, I would avoid it. I really thing this was made just as a fun 45 min extra adventure with the Doctor and Martha. The animation was kinda meh, but I enjoyed the story line. I'll give this a 3.

Take a blistering trip through time and space with three stunning ALL-NEW short stories featuring Tenth Doctor, Eleventh Doctor and the brand-new Twelfth Doctor

This was a free comic I got a while back. Honestly...I still think its free. But anyway - I love the Doctor and I do enjoy a comic book from time-to-time, so why not?

Well...this was a wee bit of a let down. It was so damn short!! I get that it was free and all, but really? Each of the three stories legit lasted one or two pages. The entire comic was maybe 9 pages and that includes the cover and all the other nonsense that none of read like publication info.

The art was okay. The first and last story the art was nice, but the second story with the 11th Doctor was super meh. He looked doopey as hell. :/ 

Also...I was confused who the people were following the Doctor? Clara was in the one with the 12 - totally get it, but the hell were the other folks? No names were mentioned, nothing. So I was confused by who and what was going on.

I get that this was free and all, but there was barely any work done on this. 

If you love this TV series as much as me, feel free to read it, just don't have high expectations. In the end, I shall stamp this with 2 stars.
