Sounds like a good idea.

Could be good to have a ā€˜titan comicsā€™, ā€˜titan comic backupsā€™, and ā€˜titan comics (+backups)ā€™

I donā€™t think that is necessary. You can filter by publisher to get that result.

I see that these have gotten ratings now. Where did you find them?

I cant find them in any of the Titan Comics I have!

I know some of them are in the Doctor Who Comic issues that I have.

Nice to see a Thread for this Range of Stories! Read all the ones for 12 and sadly didnā€™t like most of them if I am being honest. I totally get what they are going for, but it sadly doesnā€™t tickle the funny part of my brain. I do have to give 11ā€™s and 10ā€™s a read, seems more like my caliber of humor going by some Screenshots here.
Furthermore, I find it cute that the 12 ones have Parody Titles, not sure if this is something the whole Range does, but itā€™s nice nonetheless!

All of them have a quality that goes up and down, but I liked the 12 ones the least (except for #welovetitan, which I really did not like).

Yeah, I am not surprised to hear that considering the sheer Number, even just 12 has alone under his belt. On that note, I am glad they chose a more comedic Approach, which works well for being limited to 1 or 2 Pages!

Do any of you know where the best place to find the backup strips is? I tend to borrow the omnibus versions of the stories from my library and they donā€™t usually show up in those.

I primarily get the collected editions, but I do have a few single issues.

The backups are available in the individual issues but not in the collected formats :sob::sob:

Some of them can be quite hard to track down, but itā€™s worth it, some of the covers alone are just really lovely

My library offers a lot of individual issues digitally through the service Hoopla, so I should be able to find most there. Only trouble is Iā€™m limited to five borrows a month through the app :smiling_face_with_tear:. So progress will be slow going lol

Hey @shauny - any chance we could separate the Titan back up comics from the main series in the Titan Comics Set like we have with the DWM ones?

Finished the 11th Doctor Backups, much more my Thing compared to the 12th ones. The Art fits the Tone of the Story very well and I do quite love the Pond Family Dynamic presented here!
Not all of them did it, but it felt much more conistent and hey some of the Gags were actually a bit funny this time around! :tada:

Yeah, both 10 and 11 had better backup strips than 12.

Well I did it! I finished all the back-up Stories!
Letā€™s talk a bit about the tenth Doctor and its back-up Stories, shall we?
I make no Secret that while I like 10, he isnā€™t particular favorite, that said I think those might have had some of the best ones we have gotten.

The one with the Rani is nothing special, but fun. The one with the Rose Cat is easily the best of all of them, no Wonder that cat is on the Companion List! There were others I enjoyed, the Artstyle was my favorite and some Gags really worked.
Well that was a nice Note to end those short Comicstrips on!
