The stories from Titan's first two Doctor Who Free Comic Book Day specials were included in their regular collections, but as far as I can tell, this one and the next were not, so I added them to my marathon of Titan stories I've been reading from Humble Bundle and Hoopla. This is a twelfth Doctor story—the first to include tv companion Bill Potts—that includes flashbacks to the ninth, tenth, and eleventh Doctors (i.e., everyone who starred in an ongoing, though the ninth's had been cancelled by this point). It's fine; I am not sure I entirely bought all the Doctor's actions, but whatever, it's sixteen pages and I didn't pay any money for it! My biggest complaint is that when the Doctor tells Bill something happened to the ninth Doctor "before Tara," that is clearly a comment aimed at the continuity-obsessed audience, and not anything he would ever actually say to Bill!
I read an issue of Titan's Doctor Who comic every day (except when I have hard-copy comics to read). Next up in sequence: The Tenth Doctor: Vortex Butterflies
