This book wraps up the SERVEYOUinc storyline that's been running through these Eleventh Doctor comics, though first there's a cute story about an alien overlord who tries to take over the Earth by writing free comic books. The remainder of the book is pretty dramatic, grim stuff, though, with the Doctor working hard to make good for his guilt over what he did during volume two when he took over SERVEYOUinc. Stories include the TARDIS crew being split into three different dimensions, Cybermen intervening during a civil war in ancient Rome, and the Doctor facing down his mother. They're weird, off-kilter stories, and all the better for it. There's no point where this ever feels like it's trying to be the telly version! The Doctor's guilt is a strong thread here, and one I enjoyed: I don't think Matt Smith every played it quite this way in tv, but I think he could have, and quite well. This is a baggage-ridden Doctor, full of self-loathing, a characterization that occasionally lurked in the background; Ewing & Williams yank it into the foreground to good effect. Jones and ARC are written out in the this volume (I like how Jones went), and the ending promises that Alice will stick around for the next volume, which is good because I like her. Titan Doctor Who: « Previous in sequence | Next in sequence » Another spectacular visual and storytelling device in these comics sees the four main characters split into different parts of the TARDIS, with distinctive art for each concurrent story. The Doctor also goes through the humbling experience of having the TARDIS turn against him for his misbehavior. There are also Cybermen in ancient Rome and a motorbike race on the Berlin Wall in 1976. This volume ties up the threads in the SERVEYOUinc and Talent Scout stories, as well as the Jones and ARC, uh, arcs. I look forward to reading more adventures of Alice and the Doctor. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha

De drie companions die de 11de Doctor op zijn avontuur vergezellen zijn geen bekenden van de televisieserie. Dus het was voor mij als lezer wel zaak om snel kennis met ze te maken zodat het aangenaam was om met hen mee te reizen. Alice, Jones en ARC hebben alle drie zo hun eigen geschiedenis waarbij die met name van ARC al aardig met die van Doctor verweven is in de eerste twee volumes. Ik moest echt aan ze wennen maar op het einde moest ik afscheid nemen van ARC en Jones en zag ze toch met spijt in mijn hart gaan. Oftewel ik was al aardig aan ze gehecht geraakt.
De titel Conversion en de Cybermen op de derde pagina deden mij vrezen dat het een voornamelijk Cybermen-verhaal ging worden. Inmiddels heb ik zoveel verhalen met Cybermen en Daleks ervaren dat ze voor mij de komende twintig jaar wel op de plank mogen verstoffen. Het was dan ook een opluchting dat de Cybermen slechts in een klein gedeelte van deze strip een aandeel hadden.
Zoals ook in een ander Doctor Who-strip vind ik het wel moeilijk dat de Doctors niet zo heel goed lijken op de Doctors die bekend zijn van de televisie. Dat is hoogstwaarschijnlijk dan ook het voordeel van de nieuwe companions waar nog helemaal geen beelden van bestaan. Blijkbaar vindt de uitgever het niet belangrijk dat de Doctors goed lijken en misschien ook wel de lezers niet want die willen alleen maar dat hun Doctor Who-honger gestild wordt. En dat is voor een groot deel eigenlijk ook wel waarom ik deze strips lees. ( )
