The Thirteenth and Tenth Doctors are back in a new adventure! In Doctor Who: Alternating Current, they team up to fix the timeline alongside some familiar faces.
(Yes, the Doctors are the ones who messed up the timeline in the first place. Did you even need to ask?)
From there, the Doctors cross paths, uniting to come together to find the cause of the timeline divergence and fix it. In this way, Alternating Current directly links to a series 12 Doctor Who episode, “Nikola Tesla’s Night of Terror.” However, it’s done in such a way that means you don’t need to have seen that episode in particular to understand the story. Again, I always consider it a plus when Doctor Who stories manage to walk this line; it means the comic can draw fans even if they haven’t caught up with the most recent TV stories.
Overall, Alternating Current brings you the best kind of Doctor Who story: full of your favorite characters, and a little bit timey-wimey. This one is worth adding to your collection.
