Somehow the scientist thieves displayed more personality than any of the main characters. Like we get their desperation, why they’re doing what they’re doing, and that they have moral lines they won’t cross. I’m interested to know more about their story and the beautifully-designed villain. I feel like this comes from the author having more freedom where they’re concerned. The tv doctor still hasn’t settled on a personality more defined than quirky and precocious, so that’s all we see in the book. The companions are still empty receptacles for the doctor to talk to and impress. What’s most irritating is that the companions have backstories that would allow for them to have distinct points of view but really they add nothing but mild reactions to the doctor’s antics. But again, show carryovers, not the comic’s fault. And we’re still early in the story. Nothing really has happened yet. Other than a lot of the doctor talking without anything being said. I guess that part is the comic’s fault.

Just kind of annoyed that when the Doctor said something about a vortex manipulator, and then someone asked what it was, she didn't say "cheap and nasty time travel" like the Doctor is supposed to say. But we got a beautiful Alice X. Zhang cover.

I already read the entire story but I have gotten Issue #1 with Cover B and decide to read through the Issue, this time with a Cliffhanger.

I love this doctor, her charm, her spunk, her energy, and her kindness for others! I love the new companions and I’m excited to see where this story goes!

Edit: Considering this is the first issue, not much happens. My rating is due to the fact that I already know and love the characters, I really liked the artwork (which can be a deal breaker to me) and the setup.
Also, having the fact we finally got a female Doctor means the world to me and I love her very dearly. Her energy is captivating and I love how genuine her emotions are and how hard it is for her to hide them. She reminds me a lot of the past Doctors but still stands on her own.

To sum it up: I recommend watching the show and if you are a fan, picking up the comics (which is what I am trying to do).

Right after reading Issue #0, I had issue 1 waiting and this was an additional treat to see it written by Jody Houser and illustrated by Rachael Stott and colorist Enrica Eren Angiolini, this female team take our Doctor along a new adventure along with her new companions Graham, Yasmin, and Ryan.

The first issue is short and leaves the gang in quite the predicament but knowing the Doctor, the next can issue can only lead toward a good time, as she and the gang try to save themselves and maybe she gets a bit of her memories back.
