Download As PDF : Doctor Who The Eleventh Doctor Archives #3 eBook Tony Lee Tim Hamilton Phil Elliott 
Jack the Ripper has been caught and even the Doctor will have trouble talking his way out of this one! The question is though, why is the real Ripper following Amy? What is Amy's connection to Mary Kelly? And how has Rory become the chief of police in this century?
Doctor Who The Eleventh Doctor Archives #3 eBook Tony Lee Tim Hamilton Phil Elliott
ART:The artist has a beautiful, watercolor-like style and basic knowlegde of anatomy, but the facial expressions are extremely bland. When the Doctor is arrested for being mistaken as Jack the Ripper, Rory appears and Amy tells him to do something. Her expression is utterly calm. It barely ever changes. Amy isn't Kristen Steward.
In comics as well as animation, facial expressions are crucial to narration. You simply cannot convey emotions without the appropriate facial expression and body language but while the drawings themselves are of decent quality, the faces are quite blank.
But in the artist's defense, all Doctor Who comics seem to have in common that the authors' style is either visually appealing, but with poorly done facial expressions which are a huge part of human communication, or the style is minimalistic with only basic resemblance to the characters and/or reeks of a loveless, purely technical hand, like the hand that draws the cheap, rushed daily cartoons for an audience too young to care for visual appeal beyond being dully entertained for 10 minutes. I am still dreaming to find a Doctor Who comic featuring all maximum character resemblance, effort and detail in overall artwork (but not over-detailed where every line in the face is equally thick and black, aging any character by 30 years), and strong, credible facial expressions. This seems to be an impossible task...
LETTERING:
There are the bolded words in the speech bubbles... bolded for emphasis so the sentence sounds right, but sometimes the wrong word seems bolded when comparing the sentence to the context. There are differences in meaning between "WHAT are you doing here?", "What ARE you doing here?", "What are YOU doing here?", and "What are you doing HERE?".
STORY:
It seems to come in several parts and this is one of them. Way to make an extra buck! This comic is ridiculously short. It ends in a cliffhanger with Amy getting kidnapped by the alien. I'm not sure I'll get the sequels. On one hand, I want to know how the story ends, on the other, there is little suspense: the Doctor has been saved and freed of the accusation of being the ripper, and he does or does not want to interfere with the ripper's final murder, but is this a hook? Who cares about random people who got murdered so long ago? Amy got kidnapped, but we know how her story ends in canon narration, so she'll be fine. There would have been higher stakes and a greater hook had the Doctor continued to be under arrest or in other danger connected to being mistaken for Jack the Ripper. But that problem is solved on page 2.
TECH:
Now, on Kindle readability. If you don't have an actual Kindle but only the app, this is something for bigger screens such as tablets, not for the smartphone. You cannot rotate the screen, and in portrait, you have to constantly enlarge the pages which creates a lot of bustle and sliding, including sliding your current pane out of view. It's quite an exercise to read.
BUY?
If you're a hardcore DW fan who wants to read every word the Doctor says, and never gets enough Doctor Who, get it. If you want to save your money for only the best merch and literature, I say skip this one as well as many other comics by many other artists.
