REVIEW: Doctor Who: The Prison Paradox #1 The Doctor and Belinda make a prison break for the stars in Titan Comics' new lively and fun series The Fifteenth Doctor is back! Doctor Who: The Prison Paradox continues his adventures at Titan Comics, once again told by fan favourite writer Dan Watters of Batman: Dark Patterns fame. Appropriately for a Time Lord whose run was cut short on television, there's a real sense of pace and energy.

REVIEW: Doctor Who: The Prison Paradox #1 - Titan Comics' Doctor Who: The Prison Paradox provides a fun and clever new opportunity to spend time with Ncuti Gatwa's Time Lord

20XX. Bio-technology is the norm. Cities around the globe are crowded. Many live below the poverty line. Escapism is in high demand. For most - video games are the answer. 
The DREAMWAVE console allows users to play video games in their dreams. Players enter fully-immersive worlds ripe with infinite possibilities. The best part? They can dream together.

Rumors persist of players known as “CEMETERY KIDS” that never wake from Nightmare Cemetery. These stories are unsubstantiated and most believe it to be nothing more than brilliant marketing.

CEMETERY KIDS RUN RABID is a new sci-fi/horror hybrid from @oni-press.bsky.social

In a sentence: It's NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET meets SWORD ART ONLINE.

High action, insane monsters, and deeply human drama about 4 friends who spend their nights traversing nightmares together.
