The 10 Doctors: page 5

The 10th Doctor attempts to get a grip with his wierd emotional and temporal displacement rushes and gets some assistance from the 5th Doctor, probably the most empathic of his previous incarnations. The 5th Doctor and his companions, Tegan and Turlough are fresh from The Five Doctors, fleeing from Gallifrey so the Doctor doesn’t have to take office as Lord President, and already familiar with at least 3 of his other incarnations.

    Ah….Five and Ten. *knowing giggle*

    In Time Crash (just broadcast on Children In Need), David Tennant gives Peter Davison the exact same type of speech about being ‘his’ Doctor, the one he most identifies with (Tennant is in his late-thirties, would have been about the right age back in 1982) and wants to be again.

    Not a bad feat of prescience then considering this was written some six months ago, before Season Three even started. Or is there an untelevised temporal anomaly we should be aware of for Big Finish to wring another trilogy out of?

    Very Very Well Predicted.

    Bravo! This one’s my favourite so far – there’s something very sweet about it. Of course, I have to admit that 5 and 10 are my favourites, as well…

    These are brilliant! I’m having a great time reading!

  5. Rich

    Lisa: Hehee… it’s even funnier now, eh?

    Eala Dubh: Totally called it by accident. I never EVER thought I’d see any of the classic Doctors working on a new episode. Especially not one before McCoy!

    Kitty: Thanks! I’m still in shock myself.

    Melanie: Thank you! Enjoy!

  6. spookette

    Aww, Fivey’s always good for a hug. *squee* I’m so glad I caught this comic!

  7. DarthHoob

    I’m very impressed. Please do carry on!

    5th and 10th Doctors rock! They do seem very similar…do you think BBC planned Time Crash once they saw David TENnant? What’s with all the 10s anyway…apparently DT is leaving in 2010 (another 10!). :-(

    Anyhow, brilliant comic! Fantastic! :-D

  9. Heather

    DT said in an interveiw somewhere that he loved to stay on for season 5 and more just that they havnt asked him yet

    You drew him so well too! thanks for your hard work!

    I’m rereading, Ten is sooo much like the series. I can just imagine the “real” (for lack of any better phrase) Ten doing that to everyone he meets.

    Re-reading the comic ftw! I’m reading the whole thing again because I’ve officially seen at least one episode of each Doctor and I know them a lot more now. In good time, I will have seen all the episodes, but that’ll take awhile… XD

    Anyway, just had to comment on the brilliance of panels 2, 3 and 4. Hilarious, I love it. :D

  13. Andy

    “I wasn’t always proud of you?”. I’m confused… It sounds like a dig at the 80’s, but why…?

  14. Rich

    A reference to the 6th Doctor’s attitude right after he regenerated. (And the fact that the previous Doctors all seem only reluctantly accepting of their future incarnation in “The Five Doctors”) Not to mention his own distress at seeing this incarnation in the mirror in “Castrovalva”.

    The 5th Doctor:
    “That’s the trouble with regeneration. You never quite know what you’re going to get.”

    The 6th Doctor:
    “A vast improvement on my last incarnation. I was never pleased with that one.”
    “It had a sort of feckless charm that simply wasn’t ME.”
    “Sweet? Sweet? Effete. Sweet? SWEET? Sweet. That says it all.”

    Etc.

  15. Mr Scirev

    Just brilliant stuff, rereading post-time crash… wow..

  16. Grant

    And I thought this was written AFTER Time Crash. Suprising that it was written before.

    Love Tenths expression in the second page.

  17. Jayster

    Rich, how did you know 10 liked 5 BEFORE TIme Crash?

  18. korafrax

    I think Rich did a bit of time traveling with Time Crash. Where (and when) are you hiding your TARDIS Rich?

  19. Dalekcat

    I love how Ten goes from :( , to :’(, to :D , and how Five’s just like “Okeyy… Freak.”
