Titan Comics Doctor Who: The Eleventh Doctor #6 is released next week (24th December) in all good comic shops and be warned that you’ll need to have your thinking caps on, because the events of the issue itself run backwards, as the reader starts the adventure with ‘THE END’ – and works back.
In the story, The Doctor is the only one who realises that the flow of time in the vortex has been disrupted, but can he uncover the cosmic culprit and put causality back on the right track – before Alice and her fellow TARDIS travelers are de-aged right out of existence?
“#6 is a one-off very heavily timey-wimey [issue], which was a brain-twist to write but something to be proud of, I think,” Rob teased on MarySue.com earlier this year. “It uses the comic format in an interesting way. And there’s a classic Who villain in it.”
It’s a real head-scratcher by Rob Williams and Simon Fraser (with colour from Gary Caldwell) and as you can imagine, Titan are really excited about this inspired time-travelling comic tale, hey’ve give us this sneak peak at this innovative issue…
