October 7, 2020 0 Comments

We have arrived at the first of our reviews of the materials being released in the epic Time Lord Victorious event. We begin our adventure, mostly with comics. But first, we look at the recently released short story The Dawn of the Kotturuh by James Goss which was provided to readers through the official Doctor Who newsletter.

Then we move onto Titan Comic’s contribution, reviewing both issues of the Time Lord Victorious comic arc, Defender of the Daleks.

And lastly this week, we review the first part of the comic story, Monstrous Beauty #1, which accompanies issue 556 of Doctor Who Magazine.

Find out what we thought of these first stories.

Enjoy!
