The 10 Doctors – Page 151

The Sontarans fire their laser at the door, but as they do so, the TARDIS materializes in front of it. At their moment of confusion, the 6th Doctor (now wearing the 4th Doctor’s scarf) stuns them all. He uses a sonic lance and a bit of jiggery-pokery to break into the door and comes face to face with the 4th Doctor.

  1. Derek

    Brilliant! Great job as always (though I’ll miss the moaning of 6).

  2. Olly

    Second! Whoo! Great job on this one, Rich.

  3. Chris

    3, 4, 5 and 6 have met up. 1 is alone, 2 is with 2.5. 7 with the Rani. 8 on Gallifrey wiv 10 and 9 in drax’s tardis.

  4. Lewis

    Yay for a slow, gradual re-meeting of the Doctors! And the scarf is unharmed! ^_^

  5. Lewis

    It’s a new habit of mine to read these and then change pronouns around. (eg. “Hello! Oh, I brought my scarf! Very good of me!”) :D

  6. KatKlingon

    Ah AT LAST! Now I will see if my expectations were realistic. I do love the way you keep using one of the Doctors unexpectedly to solve the problem, Rich. Now I just want to know how Seven will get away from the Rani.
    Also LOVE, “Hello! Oh you brought my scarf! Very good of you!”

  7. Jay

    Yeah I know you might have wondered where I am.

    Well I am still watching to see how this is all going to turn out!.

    It is somehow shaping up right.

    wating to see where it all does get to!.

  8. gecks

    very nice, and doesnt six look simply resplendent in four’s scarf, i think he’s had a hair cut though *chuckle*

  9. Sean

    LOVE IT! LOVE IT!

    AWESOME SAUCE!

  10. Rich

    I should probaby colour one of these panels just to see how much more horrible the 6th Doctor’s outfit would look with the 4th Doctor’s scarf on it.

  11. Lewis

    Maybe you should make Six turn his coat inside out (multi-coloured on one side and B+W on the inside) xD

  12. Glenn Jupp

    Careful Rich, 6 + 4 = lots of colouring :)

    And I have this terrible feeling that the first panel of page 152 will show Doctors 3 and 5 trying very hard to stop 6 from feeding 4’s scarf to him.

    I love getting terrible feelings like that.

  13. jettime

    I thought something like that was going to happen!
    :)
    this comic is FAN-TASTIC!

  14. Kimberly

    The look on 6’s face is precious! I had wondered what he would do with the scarf – you had a panel with him looking up at it while it dangled from the crash site… just brilliant, Rich! Molto Bene! (er, I did spell that right, didn’t I?)

  15. Captain Chaotica

    Oh my god. One Baker wearing the other’s trademark accessory. I LOVE IT! That is so adorable (in a frightening way) I don’t even know where to start. Seriously. Although you’re right–GAWWWDD, _another_ pattern on THAT outfit? (snerk)

    I’m likin’ the turned-up collar, though. A bit old-fashionedy and kind of dignified. And makes him look a bit more…Fourish.
    Meanwhile, I’ve seen shots in Four’s serials where he suddenly kind of…_pre_minded me of Six! “Planet of Evil”, where he had his scarf off most of the time and a wide silk cravat, for example. Those two actually have a _lot_ more in common than the same last name and curls. Stuff like:

    Six is flamboyant? Look at FOUR’S original costume choices!
    Six was wonked out of his gourd when he first woke up? Well, Four didn’t _strangle_ anybody, but he did sleep on a table. (snerk)
    Six is uncalled-for nasty to his Companion? One word: LEELA.
    Six is egotistical? My GOD, some of the things Four said about himself…

    And so on… They really do share more than just a name and foofy hair. (For another odd real-life coincidence, they were both exactly 40 when they took the part.)
    I’m not saying they ARE the same. Just that–considering that they’re the most and _least_ popular versions of the character!–they share an interestingly high amount of _similar_ traits. (shrug)

    Of course, they’re technically THE SAME CHARACTER! This is all like being surprised that somebody is like…themself. But you know what I mean. :P

    …Notorious

  16. Phoenix

    Brilliant last panel – absolutely brilliant – you’ve got to love 6 for rescuing the scarf (I heartily concur with Glenn Jupp about 6 feeding the scarf to 4 on the next page)

    Rich – Please give out a sunglasses warning if you’re going to do 6 + scarf in colour. Many thanks

  17. The Voyager

    The reunion! The 6th must be so relieved… GWR

  18. Eala Dubh

    Ooh, I dunno about that. 6 isn’t the kind to faint from shock, but he’s just the sort to have a go at 4; not for making him think he was dead, but for allowing himself to take so many mortal risks afterwards when there was nothing left to apparently lose. “I could have killed myself! Again!!” :)

  19. AniDragon

    Awww, 6 looks kind of cute with 4’s scarf on! XD

  20. DoctorParadox

    Love the latest page, some how the fourth doctor’s scarf fits the sixth…..I’m not sure why?

  21. Percy

    Oh, what joy! Six in the scarf (seriously, that would be WIN if colored) and discovering that he’s not actually dead…Love Six’s face in panel 8
    Also, kudos to Notorious…you had me laughing my head off and trying to think of more similarities..

  22. Teenage Mage

    Hehehehehehe…..Six has such a great expression in the last panel.

  23. Spiral

    I was curious as to what it would look like. Now if you’ll excuse me, I think I’m blind.

  24. Spiral
  25. Vulpis

    *laughs* I love 6’s expression in the last panel, if only because it’s so utterly *different* on him–literally ever other panel of him in the strip, he’s got that groucy/snarky/sullen expression (and so did Maxil, for that matter), but this once he’s just showing pure surprise.

  26. Fizzix

    Oh, you brought my scarf. LOL

    Spiral, that’s fantastic. I’ll be blind now too.

  27. Lisa

    Haha awesome! Though I had to backtrack because I didn’t notice the scarf hanging from the ship. D’oh!

  28. Rich

    HAHAHA! Nicely DONE, Spiral! Thank you! You saved me the trouble. That looks great!

  29. DJ

    Ahhh! Tw-thunk! Blinded by Technicolor! Good thing I know how to touch type! Thank you Spiral! And yes, I think I will nab that for an icon! (If you don’t mind, please?? Pretty please! I’ll pay you in jellybabies.)
    Great work, Rich. The Two Baker Brothers, reunited again! Marvelous.
    Swoon.

  30. wulfae

    XD Six is going to go ballistic on Four, I can see it now. *laughs*

    Also Spiral? I have spots in front of my eyes now. *blinks*

  31. Scratch

    Jeezus, Rich…you are rocking and rolling, pal! All we need now to have the kitchen sink is Ogrons and Zygons (which sounds like an awfully fun boardgame) and, of course, Litefoot and Jago!

  32. 494alex

    Ah some Baker on Baker action!

  33. 494alex

    Like scratch said get the Zygons in on the action! we saw them once close to the start and we didnt even see them in the fight! [thinks] Bloody cowardly Zygons!

  34. RYCloud

    Yes great work rich, I see now that your slowly bringing the Doctors together, I’m guessing the next will be one.

    Also have read every page of Another Fantasy Gamer Comic and I have to say its brilliant.

    Keep up your amazing work.

  35. ericinwisconsin

    wulfae: I have spots before my eyes.
    Rich: Did you see the Doctor?
    wulfae: No, just spots.

    Sorry, corny, old joke, but it came to mind…

  36. Captain Chaotica

    Aw, thanks, Percy. I really expected more to (a) bore or (b) irritate people with that list, than anything else… But seriously–being told a lot of stuff about a Doctor before you meet them, and then being told this other one is “the fan favourite”–really makes you _notice_ things. At least it did for me.
    (Actually I think Peri has it better than Leela, on the snark front. So far, if I were to count, I think she’s zinged him MORE times than he’s zinged her. The only problem is that he usually doesn’t _notice_. :P )

    And oh you guys. I’ve seen FAR worse than that colour combination. You wimps. :P (Any shot with Six and Peri together in THAT THING she was wearing in “Mark of the Rani” comes to mind. Yellow and pink. Yellow. And PINK?! What was she _thinking_…)
    There’s this one messageboard I visited that did this REALLY blinding thing on April Fool’s, I forget what it was but it was like, flaming orange and green on a purple background or some such–now _that_ was painful. Everybody was complaining about it virulently but me? I had been having eye strain lately so I ALREADY had my prescription sunglasses on. So I was fine! :P

    (I do wish the tongue-sticking-out smiley LOOKED more like how I always intend it…or that I could get rid of it entirely. I intend it as a sarcastic, kind of self-mocking little nyeh! but it looks like a big _grin_…)

    Anyway, I do really like Six’s expressions in this one, yeah. And in the last page he was in. Actually all _through_ this comic, he’s gotten some really interesting expressions. I especially like the dejected, “So this is it. I’m going to die” ones. Poor egotistical little brat Time Lord… ;)
    Although the FIENDISH ones when he’s turning something right back around on the bad guys and being Clever are also completely aces, too. Woot!

    …Notorious

  37. Remorse1994

    Where’s maxil? I’d forgot about him and now I’m suddenly curious about where he went.

  38. Captain Chaotica

    Oh, on another note–I have actually read quite a bit of YAFGC too, from the beginning. The problem is that I then forgot to look at it for a while…and now have absolutely NO FLIPPING IDEA where I left off at. So now I can’t catch up with it anymore…

    I will have you know, however, that the other day in the Sims I went and looked at my custom stuff I have dowloaded, and went, “Hmm”, when I realised I could make a person with jet black skin, red eyes, pure white hair, and pointed ears–a Drow! I immediately named her Arachne. :) (And made her a Romance Sim. It was either that or Money, which is as close to a Power aspiration as the game has…) Incidentally the hairdo I gave her is the pure white version of the one I gave Peri.
    Amusingly, she lives in one of my neighborhoods where I have Doctors wandering around…and immediately started wanting to “woo-hoo” with the first one she met. To which I can only say GET IN LINE, SISTER! :P Damn fangirls.

    Anyway, I went and made up a character named after one of _yours_, Rich. And then she gets to interact with Time Lords (…but not in THAT way if I can help it.) Yay. :)

    And speaking of spots, bad fashion sense, and Doctors, why did I just picture Mel’s Polka Dots of Doom outfit when I read ericwisconsin’s last comment…?

    …Notorious

  39. Sean

    I’m just thrilled Six thought to take the scarf with him. Just what was going through his mind when he found it and put it on?

  40. Spiral

    @DJ: feel free to use it :D
    @Remorse1994: :o I’d forgotten about him as well! Maybe he hitch-hiked back to gallifrey :P

  41. Lord President Lundar

    The look on 6’s face! Classic! :D

  42. Captain Shade

    I think Lightfoot and Jango, are as canon as Bigfoot and Wild Boy. Mel, Peri, Six, Four, Etc…Sometime fasions made no sense. Then again, I thought that about Zoe’s purple sparkely jumpsuit too, untill I saw her hanging onto a floating TARDIS console…Damn!

  43. Laura

    Returning and pleasantly overjoyed to see how quickly you’re cruising throughthis, Rich.

    Also, stoked at Six wearing Four’s scarf. Tackiness on top of extra-super-tackiness! It’s beautiful!

  44. Child of Zion

    Awwww!!!
    “And so 4 was reunited with his scarf and they all lived happily ever after. THE END.”
    Sorry. Couldn’t resist. :D

    ~CoZ

  45. Rich

    No Cap, Lightfoot and Jago are canon characters from “The Talons of Weng Chiang”. Bigfoot and Wild Boy, I don’t believe, have yet appeared on a televised episode.

  46. carol

    That was really funny! I mean the look on ’s face when 4 appeared at the door! Priceless! :D

  47. carol

    Ok, where did that 6 go?! (Stupid keyboard!) :(

  48. Jay Smith

    Well, well done.

  49. Captain Shade

    Oops…Been a while since I’ve seen that. For some reason I was thinking some iffy novelization…I can’t think of Lightfoot, without thinking of Gordon. And that’s just not Who.

  50. scionofgrace

    I love it when the inter-Doctor drama outdoes the rest of the plot. Six wearing Four’s scarf! May I just echo what everyone else is saying, that that’s just AWESOME.

  51. The Creeping Spleen

    Hurrah for the Fabulous Baker Boys! :D

  52. redTARDIS

    it moments like that, that make you want to watch things like ‘the five doctors’. it’s mostly just those doctor-doctor moments that keep you hanging.
    brilliant job rich, and spiral- nice… but if that was ever shown on tv i think it would have a similar effect as when the artists of Pokemon portrayed a explosion using blue lines (or something) and it sent 2000 Japanese children to hospital with seizure.
    baker & baker love it

  53. Pattysol

    Great! I was so worried about poor Six…. And now Four has his scarf!

  54. Tom

    Six is so awesome, I wish he had been on the show longer. He’s probably the only Doctor who would never be able to get along with any other incarnation of himself, because he’s so arrogant he thinks he’s the best regeneration.

  55. Os

    Yes! I didn’t have to wait long for this!

    (Judging by the comments on this page, i’d say too many bakers no longer spoil the crust…)

  56. Whatsit

    :D Shove him in the face, 6! :D

  57. dragon64

    EEE! He is! He’s wearing the scarf! That is just too good! :D I love the wierd little bits, its stuff like this that go down in Doctor Who history.

    Thank you Spiral. Truly an image to be cherished in all it’s horrible beauty. :)

  58. Kimberly

    …Waitaminnit… I just had a thought. What kind of gun did 6 use to zap the Sontarans? I thought their only weakness was the probic vent at the back of the neck? I guess they’re just stunned… Or maybe it wasn’t the gun after all. It probably was the combination of 6’s outfit and 4’s scarf!

    (By the way, good one, Spiral! Nicely colored.)

  59. Mitchell Craig

    Two Bakers – no waiting (while one chokes the other).
    Panel 8 is just too-too.

  60. Hark

    WOOT! :D

    wait a minute. What’s 6 doing with 4’s scarf??

    O well too many bakers spoil the crust.

    (goes to look through the recent pages.)

  61. the oncoming satsuma

    go six with the returning of the scarf!
    I GOT THE 5 DOCTORS!!!!!!!!!
    (i am so so so so happy, is a very good episode)
    i am so glad the scarf is unharmed and everyone is congregating

  62. BRF

    Oooo… sonic lance!

    And 6’s suffering ends, he knows he will live! I wonder if he will glomp 4. Or will that be out of charicter? It’s 5’s job to despense the hugs after all!

    3: “Oh, stop all that sillyness and clost the door, we’ve got a battle to disrupt!”

  63. basser

    Beat Rich to it and coloured this myself… Actually the scarf/coat look ain’t half bad! ( http://img149.imageshack.us/img149/372/10doctorspg151colouriw1.jpg if anyone’s interested.)

    Four! You’re alive! Haha do we get a touching reunion next page? Seven and Five looking on uncomfortably… Three making snarky comments. xD

  64. Captain Chaotica

    Ooh. I am diggin’ the _shading_. Awesome, dude. :)

    …Notorious

  65. Parn

    Aww… 6 wearing 4’s scarf! So sweet & cute!!
    love the last panel too :D

  66. Lewis

    basser, I think Spiral beat you to it ;)

  67. Time Lord Enthusiast

    I love seeing 6 with 4’s scarf! Makes me giggle.

  68. Lily Knotwise

    The scarf is JUST what Six needs to complete his already extremely sophisticated outfit.

  69. Mreen

    Rich – brilliant – love 6 wearing the scarf and 4’s greeting!

    Oh basser, I just have to save that- you did the whole page and colored 4 in too! I was admiring Sprial’s bravery but wishing for one with Baker and Baker and scarf – and there you were, going even further beyond the call!

    Lily … Lily … you know, you’re right. *adjusts sunglasses to rose*

  70. Tangerine

    The last pane and the expression on 4 and 6’s faces are just hilarious.
