10 Doctor Who Comics Fans Must Read

4. Weapons Of Past Destruction

Doctor Who
Titan Comics

One of the first Ninth Doctor comic stories published, this tale is about a new set of species, known as the Unon and Lect. Using black market Time Lord technology, they try to start a second Time War and replace the Time Lords of Gallifrey as the dominant universal rulers.

Along with the Ninth Doctor, this story involves Rose Tyler, Captain Jack Harkness, and also has some flashbacks to the Eighth and War Doctors.

While this story doesn't have much in the way of time travel, it does have a lot of space travel, making this comic feel more like a Guardians of the Galaxy story than a Doctor Who universe-spanning adventure. But that is not necessarily a bad thing, as this gives fans of the Ninth Doctor more of their adventures to enjoy, since the first NuWho Doctor only got one season.

This story feels like a simple expansion of the Ninth Doctor's story and gives fans more of Rose Tyler and Jack Harkness before Torchwood and the Tenth Doctor. This story is also a very good starting point if you are interested in reading the modern doctor who comics, though of course with everything Doctor Who related you could just read the comics in any order you want.
