It’s been quite the renaissance for Doctor Who comics since Titan Comics took over the franchise. All of the “Nu” Doctors have gotten a series, and now the first of the “technically” Classic Doctors now has his own. The 8th Doctor was sadly short-lived on TV, but found life in the Big Finish audios that gave him companions and arcs. And now, he gets a 5 issue comic series, with a new companion. Maybe if it does well, it can go longer, or we will see another series! Full press release below:
