Well! Looks like the Doc has a new companion. But it also looks like he's run out of regenerations... ECRF: After the Doctor? Something bad. And probably lots of them. Count on it.
Cool. I can't help but think that Arnval actually would make a very good companion for the Doctor. I've not really gelled much with the companions from New Who, but Arnval would be perfect!
Part 3 - Epiphany Well, here is the big hook I've been building towards. This is a big one, so I will apologize to those with slower connections ahead of time.
Ah, Doctor, that's just the blend of helpfulness, scientific curiosity, and psychotic, unethical disregard for free will that we've come to expect from you, you lovable, dead scamp. So now we know what a "Time Shinki" is. Veeery interesting! (The Doc's remark about android physical characteristics is funny, too. No, Doc, she isn't an actor wearing odd-colored facepaint and walking stiff-jointed. Wonders shall never cease. )
You even had a great reference to Silence in the Library! This comic just keeps getting better and better.
Second this! Donna is awesome! From the first time I saw her, I thought, "My God! RTD wrote a character based on my wife!" And, my wife agrees!
