Doctor Who: The Tenth Doctor #10
"Doctor... you are coming back?"
Doctor Who: The Tenth Doctor #10 is a one-shot
adventure written by Robbie Morrison (Drowntown, Nikolai Dante) with
art by Eleonora Carlini.
When the Doctor lost Donna he didn’t think he should travel
with a companion again, but his meeting with Gabby several issues ago changed
his mind. But now he’s seen the talented artist at risk from a psychic artist
and the deadly Weeping Angels, not to mention the battlefields of the Great War
he’s beginning to wonder if he made the right choice. Returning to New York
with Gabby only a couple of hours after he left with her, he leaves her to
visit her family. But is that all that he plans? We all know how much the
Doctor hates goodbyes.
However, where the Doctor goes trouble isn’t often far away.
Poor New York, the city has only just shaken off the horror of the Cerebravores
and now it’s driven to the point of madness by the ear-splitting amplification
effects of the Echo. But as the Doctor soon discovers, the Echo aren’t the
villain.
Robbie Morrison’s one off story shows the Doctor as we know
and love him, as the champion of the abused, the misused and the threatened, where
the beautiful and benign is persecuted by the cruel. However, it also
establishes Gabby as an indispensible part of the Doctor’s world, so whatever
his reasons for walking away from her at her family’s restaurant, he’s happy to
travel to the next adventure with her at his side. Eleonora’s artwork has a
pleasing pop art quality while the contrast between the ethereal sound beings
and their grotesque hunters leaves no doubt that the Doctor has made the right
choice.
