I rather enjoyed the two stories in this graphic novel. The first was set in in the 1800s and very gothic feel. If spiders scare you then fair warning there are a lot of spiders. You also meet a famous real person something I always enjoy.The second story takes place in more modern times. And is the type of story where you realize that while Doctor saves the day in the end many people still have to die to accomplish it. It is a much darker story involving shambling zombies and fire.
The one-shot in the beginning felt out of place in this collection, the rest of which is all one story. But I guess it had to be collected somewhere. I like that it felt like a big season finale-worthy story (though without the disappointment of the series 8 and 9 finales).
This was enjoyable though some of the illustrations of this Doctor where kind of unrecognisable....A simple adventure.
I'm really enjoying the twelfth doctor comics. yet again Clara is much more defined and enjoyable than in the show.
i liked this book because it had a lot of good adventure i think 10 and older should read it because it has swear words.
Apart from the outrageous send up of Michael Gove, this is pretty tepid.
Well, a wee bit better than the last arc, but still not in the same class as the series. Maybe I'm just expecting too much from the comics. There are two stories in this collection and I liked the first, and shorter of the two, better than the second. There wasn't anything really wrong with any of the issues collected here, just nothing that was inspired or really inventive.
the first piece a one shot standalone feels a little too formulaic and predictable.the remaining 4 parter Hyperion is excellent filled with a truly terrifying villain a ridiculous body count and a fiery inferno everywhere you look. Morrison seems to have Capaldi's portrayal down and Clara as well. He also gets you to care for the new supporting characters.Well done graphic novel version of the Twelfth Doctor.
Exciting plot, noble sacrifice and an angel. Still getting acquainted with the twelfth Doctor and enjoying the journey.
This was quite the epic end to the first year of the Twelfth Doctor comics. Sure, another end of the world scenario was a bit much but it rather fit into the tone of this iteration of the Doctor. Although I'm sensing a pattern in the stories of this time of release. Didn't we already do the fiery enemies?But while I can't quite explain how things will revert to status quo after the planet pretty much being taken over by aliens who want to eat the sun, the adventure itself was strong, the support...
Enjoyable first chapter that would’ve been a properly spooky episode. I like when the Doctors go historical and while it wasn’t as fun as, say, Agatha Christie, literary nods are always fun.I spoke too soon. Hyperios rises (again)! I wish that it had actually been spread out a bit more as it felt rushed, especially with the magnitude and impact of these villains.
4.5
The first story, featuring aliens in 1840s England, was well done, another that felt episode-worthy. The second story, featuring the return of the Hyperions from Vol. 1, had a nicely epic scope, very season finale-ish. The only serious issue I had was that the characterization of the Twelfth Doctor seemed to be slipping as the storyline continued, more akin to Ten or Eleven. (B+)
Hyperion collects Issues 11-15 of the Twelfth Doctor Comic series.Issue 11 is a one shot that finds the Doctor and Clara at a Victorian estate where people have been suffering with strange dreams. This is a good story with a nice literary twist, but it wastes some panels on locals discussing Clara's outfit and her getting changed. Might work in a longer story but it doesn't really work or serve a purpose in the story.Issues 12-15 is a story of the Hyperion Invasion of Earth. The Hyperion make fo...
Fire & ice the Doctor wins again.
This volume contains two of my favorite stories from the 12th Doctor comics thus far. WARNING: SPOILERS MAY FOLLOW!The first story is, oddly enough, untitled. Or rather, there probably is a title, but I couldn't find it. At any rate, it has a nice, gothic atmosphere with clean lines and somber colors in the artwork. The Doctor and Clara encounter two women, Charlotte and Ellen, and due to an accident must take refuge at a nearby mansion which is suitably creepy. There are spiders. The villain is...
If there's something the Doctor Who comics have suffered from, it's poor season arcs. A lot of them just don't hook me the way they should, and the Twelfth Doctor's first year has that problem. The bulk of this volume features the return of the Hyperions from the first volume, and while the level of threat is suitably season-ending, it feels a bit over the top even for Doctor Who.The Doctor spends a lot of time running about and talking without saying very much, and things descend into action he...
Opening with a one-issue shaggy dog story which at least manages a nicely brooding stately home, the rest of the volume is devoted to a Dalek Invasion of Earth retread with living suns replacing the pepperpots. It has a few nice touches - references to the Atreides and Ice-9, some good Capaldi insensitivity, and a gadget much better and more Doctorish than those bloody shades - but fundamentally fails to hang together at any level. The population of London are in a prison camp covering most of E...
