Best Geeky Finds – Riverdale: This Isn’t Your Parents’ Archie (or Even Your Child’s)

I first became interested in comics as a child, not by reading about superheroes or adventure stories, but through ham radio.

While he was not seen for long in the TV movie, his character has lived on in Big Finish’s audio dramas, proving that he should have been the first Doctor to return when the series was rebooted. Unfortunately, he did not come back to television (other than the short 50th anniversary clip), but along with the audio dramas, Titan Comics has published a volume of comics encompassing his short run in comic form as well.  Continue reading Best Geeky Finds – A Matter for the Eighth Doctor →
