The fourth comic strip featuring the Ninth Doctor and Rose in DWM 363 and 364 written by Gareth Roberts now a writer for the 2007 season. It is also the comic swansong for the Ninth Doctor.
I thought it was quite an enjoyable end to the Ninth Doctor's adventures in the comic strips. I thought it was a nice touch at the end when Rose says to the Doctor: "Nobody's Ever Gonna Forget You."

Well she got that right.

I ws just thinking of how The 8th Doctor regenerated and what happened in the Time War and I was coming to the conclusion that tv or audio might not do it justice and that a novel (or series of novels) might be better when it struck me that a graphic novel (or series of graphic novels) could be the solution. That way the 9th Doctor could be reactivated, assuming he was actually part of it atall.

True, it would be nice if the fans got some of what they wanted, like in this manner. I would buy the stories if they focused on Eight's final days and a Nine appearance during the Time War. I too was moved by the strip of the topic ending the way it did. it was classic Who at it's finest.
