doctor-who-series-six-part-twoBy Silencio Lake, on the plane of Sighs, an impossible astronaut will rise from the deep and strike the Time Lord dead. The two-disc set collects the final six episodes of Series Six including The Doctor (Matt Smith) facing his death at the hands of River Song (Arthur Darvill).

Although the collection doesn’t include a great stand-out episode there are several good episodes including “Let’s Kill Hitler” and “The Wedding of River Song” which wraps up River Song’s story arc and gives us the conclusion of the series cliffhanger. Craig (James Corden) returns for “Closing Time” and Rory (Arthur Darvill) is forced to make an impossible decision in “The Girl Who Waited.” We also get a spooky hotel, and the somewhat less spooky insides of of terrified child’s cupboard.

Even if the extras include only a couple of Monster Files, Part Two a good wrap-up to Series Six and a nice compliment to Part One. Aside from the upcoming Christmas episode it’s the only Doctor Who we’re going to get for awhile.

DuckTales #6

ducktales-6-coverThe final issue of the series continues the DuckTales/Darkwing Duck crossover “Dangerous Currency.” Magica and the Phantom Blot have taken control of Duckberg and St. Canard mutating both cities with the magic and the blot’s dark matter. The first issue for our heroes to solve is to find a cure for those infected, including Honker and Hewey, Dewey, and Louie, who have become classic Disney monsters and are wreaking havoc throughout the city.

Scrooge takes a sample of the dark matter to Gyro Gearloose’s laboratory. Once a cure is found, the kids are saved, and Magica’s plan is uncovered with the help of Gizmoduck, Darkwing Duck and the team can set their attention on stopping the real villains of the piece including an old Darkwing foe who returns on the final page.

A fun issue from beginning to end. I especially liked the classic Disney villains from Sleeping Beauty and Fantasia used here. My only complaint is the story concludes in Darkwing Duck #18 and then we have to say goodbye to these characters. Worth a look.

[Boom, $3.99]
