8.6/10Geronimo!! Allons-y! Fantastic!. Reverse the polarity. Would you like a jelly-baby? Bowties are cool!!!Does any of those phrases make you feel happy, excited or give you the chills? Well then, hello there fellow Whovian, you're going to love this graphic novel. Now if you are not familiar with the Doctor, i suggest you stop reading this review and go watch the show right now. Im telling you, its going to be a hell of a ride.In "Prisoners of time" we have eleven stories about 11 Doctors and...

Great introduction to Doctor Who - 12 tales with 11 DoctorsI have never seen a single episode of Doctor Who - but I feel I have a decent grounding now. 11 Doctors with one overarching through line - great collection for fans and novices alike.

For the fiftieth anniversary of Doctor Who, a twelve-issue comic series was published. Each of the first eleven Doctors has an adventure typical for him. An overarching villain is depriving him of his companions for some nefarious purpose that gets revealed toward the end of the series.The First Doctor visits Thomas Huxley in the 1860s for a little lecture on science and a confrontation with a London subway-dwelling enemy that shouldn't be on Earth. The Doctor and his companions (Ian, Barbara, a...

Yes Yes Yes!This volume collected the 12 issues commemorating the 50th anniversary, each Doctor has his own issue in which he goes on his own stand alone adventure yet all of the adventures are tied together. At the end of each adventure the Doctor's companions are kidnapped by a mysterious hooded foe who is going through time snatching all of the Doctor's companions to torture our hero.It was so much fun to go on an adventure with each Doctor. I loved the variety of adventures and the changing

This is a book that I've turned to time and time again, and even after what feels like the millionth reread, it still holds up. The world of Dr. Who comics is so vast and large, and I loved how this book helped show how vast and amazing that world is. Everyone who worked on this book was incredibly passionate about the show and it shows, and it's such a shame that this book isn't more popular. It really is a fun read, and even if you aren't a die hard fan, you'll still enjoy it. I myself read th...

As far as comic stories featuring every Doctor to date, this was better than The Forgotten (3.5/5) but not as great as The Many Lives of Doctor Who (5/5). So there's at least been a progression as time goes on when it comes to these types of comic stories. Much of the art is good, but there are bits here and there that feel lazy to me. I have mixed feelings about the return of a certain character. On one hand, this gives an end to their story. On the other hand, one might argue that we didn't ne...

This collection contains all the volumes of the 50th Anniversary comic series "Prisoner of Time" published by Titan Comics. There are 12 volumes, one for each Doctor at the time and one to wrap up the storyline. So each section concentrates upon one Doctor and his companions, each telling a little story and then his companions get kidnapped. Who is kidnapping the Doctor's companions and why?Each story is a new writer and illustrator team and so the quality of stories differ throughout. You can g...

I absolutely loved this series, and it's one that ramps up in intensity and enjoyment as the end draws near and the villain's plot comes to fruition. The early chapters provided, to a relatively new Doctor Who fan from a family of lifelong fans, a really welcoming take on the early incarnations of the Doctor and his companions. Each story is different in tone, style, and adversary, reflecting the Doctor at hand and giving a hearty nod or two to his previous adventures in a really satisfying way....

Hands down, the best DW graphic novel I have ever read.

I’m a recent Doctor Who fan (I started watching it a couple of years ago) but I love everything with the Doctor! I have lots of merchandise! And I love the comics and novels! They’re so fun because they have different stories that aren’t seen on the show.One of the great things about this graphic novel is that it features all of the Doctors up until number 11. Though I’ve only watched the new series, and a couple of the original episodes, I loved seeing all these versions of the Doctor. Though h...

This was my first exposure to Doctor Who in comic format, and I wasn't disappointed. The Sixth Doctor is one of my top three favorites, and his chapter is wonderful. It seems Colin Baker lucked out with the best artist in the collection! The blurb after his chapter said he was quite pleased that his Doctor had a chance to flourish in comic form that he didn't get on film. I'm looking forward to more multi-incarnation stories like this one.

3.5/5. +1 An engaging plot featuring all Doctors from the First to the Eleventh and many of their companions. Also, I personally really like the timey-wimey-ness involving different incarnations meeting one another. +1 The usual Whovian moral integrity in most stories+1 Feels I wasn't expecting! The story revolves around Adam Mitchell's life after the Doctor refused to further travel with him, and his desire to get revenge (the Master also makes an appearance). At the end, (view spoiler)[Adam fi...

Admittedly, I am a new who convert. I started watching in 2005 and when I go back and try to watch the older shows I just can't get into them. Thus, I don't have the nostalgia driven feels that might have made this book more exciting.The art was very nice and the overall story was a decent plot. My issue came down to the writing. It was bland. There wasn't any real depth. I suppose that's partly due to the fact that these characters are popular and don't need much development as far as introduct...

I love a good Doctor crossover story. The more Doctors that are involved, the more fun the adventure. This crossover includes Doctors 1 to 11, and a slew of favorite companions over the last 50 years. The story is that the Doctors are going about their business, saving the universe, and their companions are disappearing. It comes down to all of them to figure out what's going on and save them. Caveat here: this is so much more enjoyable if you've watched at least one arc of each Doctor, and have...

Short story bursts of no consequence but with accomplished art in traditional styles so established they tend to be overlooked. The best feature is the throughline following Adam and his quest to make the Doctor evaluate his careless chaperoning of his companions. This, another question posed without answer though. Would be nice to see The Doctor learn and evolve emotionally rather than more defensive fawning from the companions. "Because love"/"Because he's The Doctor" just don't cut it for me....

Commemorating the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who, this maxi-series sees all 11 Doctors (at the time) unite as their companions are kidnapped one by one by a shadowy figure.I'm not intimately familiar with Doctors 4-8, so you'll have to forgive me if some of the nuance of their stories was lost on me, but I'm pretty good with 1-3 and 9-11, so on balance I'm doing okay.Each of these stories is laid out similarly - the Doctor and his companions have an adventure, and then the companions disappear,

This comic has a different place for me not only it is Doctor Who, obviously, but also it is a gift from my thoughtful friend @tndeecem. It means a lot when there are people around you who take into consideration your interests, people with TARDIS hearts I mean. Thank you very much again for throwing me into this wonderful journey with my doctors when “I wasn’t expecting that” ♥️ PS: Loving the chick flick moments PS2: I don’t know if this tag thing would work. If not I will message you and rub

started off kind of meh,with very slight mostly stand alone stories and a slightly plodding, "collectathon" structure. After the 4th doctor onwards though they started to gain momentum (with a few slight blips, like the sincerely quite ugly 8th doctor part) rising to a fun conclusion with suitably "balls to the wall" ideas that were occasionally silly but plausible enough not to affect the enjoyment. My only other quibble is it would have been much better with an extra section as the real fun of...

I was very satisfied not only with the individual Doctor stories--which I thought delightfully captured each Doctor's essence-- but also with the revelation of the antagonist at the end. I really appreciated the use of a lesser used character in this instance and the 'where are they now' that I never knew I wanted answer.
