The Doctor in a "truly, truly outrageous" adventure
Wednesday, August 11, 2010
But Morris' latest Doctor Who comic is perhaps his most daring (and craziest) yet. It stars the sixth Doctor, the controversial, clownishly-attired incarnation that fans love to hate only slightly less than the eighth. It co-stars Melanie Bush, one of the least popular companions in all of the series' long history. And here's where things get truly nuts: the story teams the Doctor with the 1980s cartoon stars, Jem and the Holograms. (That clip up top should get you as acquainted with this cartoon as you'd ever need to be.)
The very idea of a crossover between Doctor Who and Jem is weird, random and wrong. If Morris can actually make this work, we'll be forced to conclude that he can team Doctor Who with anybody and make a decent comic out of it. What's next? Tom Baker and Jar-Jar Binks? Peter Davison and Lady Gaga? Anything's possible!
