Product Description

Book Description

The Eighth Doctor faces new perils in this bumper collection of classic comic adventures!

This volume features eight amazing stories: THE FALLEN, UNNATURAL BORN KILLERS,
THE ROAD TO HELL, THE COMPANY OF THIEVES, THE GLORIOUS DEAD, THE AUTONOMY BUG, HAPPY DEATHDAY and TV ACTION!

The Doctor and his best friend Izzy are joined in the TARDIS by Kroton, a Cyberman with a heart
and soul! The action comes faster than ever as our heroes encounter genocidal Sontarans, vicious
space pirates, demented robots, mad gods, deadly samurai warriors... and the actor Tom Baker!

But the ultimate challenge is approaching; an epic, star-spanning battle that will decide the fate of all reality! An old friend is waiting to be reunited with the Doctor, while an even older enemy is lurking in
the shadows of time and space...

PLUS two bonus stories from the early days of Doctor Who Weekly, THROWBACK: THE SOUL OF A CYBERMAN and SHIP OF FOOLS, telling the origins of Kroton the Cyberman! AND a special six-page behind-the-scenes feature where writers Scott Gray, Alan Barnes and Adrian Salmon reveal background information on the stories¹ origins, alongside never-before-seen sketches and character designs from Salmon and fellow artists Martin Geraghty and Roger Langridge!

An essential collection for fans of Doctor Who and classic British comics! --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

4.0 out of 5 stars It's about time!!, 23 Feb 2004
By Goubs (Guernsey, UK) - See all my reviews
After reading these stories in original format, I have to say that this is an excellent collection. I have mine on pre-order already. The collection includes The Iron Legion, City of the Damned, The Star Beast, Dogs of Doom and The Time Witch. The only downside is that they are reprinted in black and white, this isn't a problem as they were always like that, however still a little disappointing as The Iron Legion was reprinted in colour in Marvel Collected Comics about 10 years ago. Still an excellent purchase, and hopefully the first of many.

5.0 out of 5 stars For all Dr. Who fans, 25 Sep 2005
By A Customer
I watched all of the new series of Doctor Who starring Christopher Eccleston and Billie Piper. I wanted to use some of my birthday money on something to do with Doctor Who. I chose this. My favourite story out of the five is called "The Time Witch". I am hoping to get "Dragon's Claw" when I've got the money for it. But I'm sure I will get it one day and "The Tides Of Time". I have just begun reading DWM (Doctor Who Magazine) which is where these comic strips come from. If you're a Dr.Who fan then this is the book for you.

4.0 out of 5 stars More Eighth Doctor goodness., 28 Aug 2006
By S. Bentley "stuarthoratiobentley" (North Yorkshire) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
This review is from: Doctor Who - The Glorious Dead (Complete Eighth Doctor Comic Strips Vol. 2): Glorious Dead v. 2 (Paperback)
This is the second in Panini's collection of Eighth Doctor stories and again, you can see how comic strip sensibilities have informed the new TV series. As I mentioned in my review of End Game, in a way this is the best form that the McGann era has taken in following on from the TV offerings, mainly because it concentrates mainly on the plot, though with some choice character moments, and is presented in a visual medium, thus giving it an immediacy the audio plays and novels lack, however excellent they may be.

This collection sees Scott Gray settle into the writer's chair and it is in this collection that the Eighth Doctor comes alive for me. The previous collection had the Doctor a little distant, a little too generic, but the Eighth Doctor who cares so deeply for life comes through in this collection, particularly in the Glorious Dead, a tale of a battle for ultimate power which sees the return of the Master directly from the TV movie. It impresses with its scale and embracing of the comic strip form to deliver the concept of an omniversal spectrum. The first story is called the Fallen and deals with what happened to Grace Holloway after the movie. It's very suitable and when she doesn't go travelling with the Doctor at the end, you feel the same disappointment you felt at the end of the TV story. The likeness is very good and the characterisation spot-on. Also in this volume, an adventure in Japan's past, an encounter with intergalactic pirates and Kroton, the emotional Cyberman (surely inspiring Yvonne Hartman in Doomsday), and a visit to an asylum for delusional robots. But, in some ways, best of all are a couple of humour strips, celebrating various anniversaries. These are drawn by the excellent Roger Langridge (check out Fred the Clown) and feature a teamup of all eight (at the time) Doctors, with nearly spot-on characterisation of each, and a visit to TV centre at Shepherd's Bush.

There is a great deal of spirit in this collection and some exciting science fiction ideas investigated (such as, if you were immortal and knew the future held bad things for your people, what would you do with yourself?). As mentioned above the characterisations are good and there are some nice seams of humour mined. The art is good, if a little bland in places, reaching heights where big science fiction ideas need illustrating, which is what you'd hope. Roll on Oblivion and the colour strips!
