I loved the first story. I have been liking the 12th Doctor’s run a lot. It is much more like the show when it is at its best, with great characters and a monster that is mostly misunderstood. I like the punk rock companion as well. The art was great, and the seaweed design was awesome! Great stuff!
The second story did nothing for me.
Beneath the Waves is cool, but nothing special, and the same goes for Boy with the Displaced Smile.
A very average collection.
A solid couple of stories, nothing super extraordinary though. I think Hattie works quite well as a companion, I appreciate the punk quality they both share.
So not to fall much behind the Clubs, I will probably try and read the twelfth Doctor Comics as soon as possible (I will catch-up with all of 10/11’s eventually, I promise! 
)
Beneath the Waves: Another fairly strong one, while the Art is still quite gorgeous, especially when we get panels without any Speech Bubbles in the Underwater Segment, I must admit it’s a bit less consistent than Mariano’s previous Entry in terms of Art. Love how they include the Quarks here, even if it was very briefly. Having another Story with Hattie is lovely, her Dynamic with 12 is such an interesting one, that it’s a shame we didn’t get more of them. How it goes about with its ‘Monsters’ is great as well. Overall, a very enjoyable one!
The Boy with the displaced Smile: It exists. I am sorry to say this, but this was a very ‘meh’ Story. The Art was fine. The Ideas behind these are fine. The Characters here are fine. The Moments with the Doctor are fine. Everything about this one screams painfully ‘fine’.
The Boy With the displaced smile was… fine, bit of a weird interlude, and the art’s eh, but overall, yeah, just kinda fine, nothing offensively bad or anything
Beneath the Waves is a fine story, but it’s uplifted but some truly stunning art at points, and Hattie generally is a really fun companion, shame we’ve seen the last of her here
Beneath the Waves plays around with classic elements but stays quite shallow. The art is stunning and the story is fine, and Twelve is on fire.
Beneath the Waves is an entertaining, fast-paced romp that plays with classic Doctor Who tropes but never quite slows down enough to develop them properly. While its atmosphere and artwork are stellar, the rushed pacing, underdeveloped alien threat, and Hattie’s unnecessary return make it feel more like a missed opportunity than a standout story. Still, for fans of the Twelfth Doctor’s era, it’s a fun, visually stunning ride—even if it never quite hits the depths it aims for.

This one’s short and fine, I guess. It’s a bit too short to feel fully satisfying, but I like how it ties into Twelve’s development.
A short but visually striking story, The Boy With the Displaced Smile offers a compelling setting, an interesting but underdeveloped alien threat, and an emotional turning point for the Twelfth Doctor. While the concept could have benefitted from a longer format, its final panels ensure it has lasting significance within the Doctor’s timeline.

A Zygon with a monocle and pencil moustache is genius!
