A review by ciska
Doctor Who the Prisoner of Time Volume 1 by Scott Tipton, David Tipton
3.0
*Disclaimer: I received a free copy of this book on Netgalley from the publisher in return for an honest review*
Review
I do not watch Dr. Who. I had heard about the serie in the past and obviously when it returned I heard a lot of people being so happy. I am not a real Science Fiction person or time travel or scary aliens. Still all the hype surrounding Dr Who made me curious and when I found this comic on Netgally I decided to give it a try and see what it was all about, especially after someone told me you did not have to be a Whovian to get the stories.
The book holds three short comics that are slowly building up to a greater plot. Though that is obvious from the beginning I felt they could have made a bit more of an effort to make the stories more interesting. They feel a bit rushed as if they are building up to a plot but something has to happen so we throw in an alien or two and the Doctor has to fight them and we can move on to the next story.
The art itself was various. The first story had a different illustrator and I did not really like those. The images where to vague. I like details more. The other two stories had images I liked better.
I do feel the comic gave me a proper introduction to Doctor Who and in I very much appreciated getting more of an insight of what it is.
