review:
Doctor Who: The Forgotten is a fun romp through a good chunk of the history of Doctor Who. Seeing as it's the 50th anniversary of the show, this is timely and very welcome.
The 10th Doctor finds himself with no memories and only his companion Martha to help him out. To solve the mystery of his identity, he relives memories of his past regenerations. Each version of himself provides clues to the puzzle. The fun part is that Doctors who had shows in black and white appear as black and white memories. I wouldn't dare spoil any surprises here, but for the long time fan, there are lots. Lots of great cameos along the way.
My only gripe is that Matt Smith, who plays the 11th Doctor is not represented, but the individual issues in the collection were published before his run on the show. The art by Nick Roche and Ben Templesmith is great, and the story by Tony Lee and Pia Guerra does a fine job of keeping in the spirit of the show.
