Doctor Who Doom’s Day #1

Titan; $3.99

Doom, the best assassin in the universe, is traveling through space and time to find the Doctor, who is the only one that can save her from Death. Armed with a vortex manipulator, Doom has 24 hours left to save herself or be overcome by Death. And while trying to find the Doctor, Doom keeps unintentionally tangling with none other than the Doctor’s nemesis, Missy.

Doctor Who Doom’s Day is the fun, creative romp that it should be. Jody Houser does a great job at writing Missy, one of the most fun characters in the modern era of the show, and gives Doom a likeable confidence, which is slightly odd since she’s an assassin. The two are practically playing a game of tag, which artist Roberta Ingranata brings to life with the right amount of detail, panel variety to keep things fresh, and bright pops of color.
