July 26th, 2018 - 5:15pmI asked Hachette why they didn’t inform subscribers of the extended run but got no reply
I asked if there would be any additional graphic novels for premium subscribers which (after asking 7 times) they confirmed there would not be
They were kind enough to point out that, even though there will be nothing extra for premium subscribers they will continue to charge the extra money each issue – thus taking money for nothing
Needless to say I was not impressed with this – though I love the books

July 2nd, 2018 - 8:40pmHell Bent is the worst story ever. Why would the Doctor blame Rassilon for the events of the time war when Rassilon was locked in his tomb in the death zone?

July 2nd, 2018 - 11:04pmIsn’t it pretty much established in “The End of Time” (I think) that because of the Time War the Time Lords resurrected many from their past to deal with it – e.g. the Master, Rassilon etc? Also, thinking of “The Five Doctors”, Rassilon was still alive in his Tomb, just immortal and, then, rather immobile.

July 7th, 2018 - 12:00pmWell, assuming the events of The End of Time are set before those of Hell Bent (in terms of Rassilon’s and the Doctor’s personal timelines), then I think it was pretty much established in the Doctor’s eyes that Rassilon was something of an enemy and a wrong ‘un after that?

July 7th, 2018 - 12:17pmI agree Hell Bent is probably the worst Doctor Who story, but the Doctor blaming Rassilon does make sense with what was established in End of Time.
