Doctor Who 50th Anniversary: Delta and The Bannermen
Doctor Who:
Delta and The Bannermen
By Malcolm Kohll
“Life? What do you know
about life, Gavrok? You deal in death. Lies, treachery and murder are your
currency. You promise life, but in the end it will be life which defeats you.”
The Doctor and Mel have
won a trip to Disneyland 1959 for being the One billionth person to arrive at
the spaceport. Mel decides to go in the
spaceship that is disguised as a bus from the 1950’s. On board the ship is the Chimeron Queen Delta
and she is running away from the Bannermen as they want to kill her as she is the last of
her kind. The Doctor follows along in
the TARDIS and it is a good thing too as the spaceship hits a satellite and is
forced to land in Wales with a little help from the TARDIS. They end up landing near a holiday camp where
they decide to make camp until the ship is repaired.
The fun and games comes to
an end sooner than expected as the Bannermen have arrived on Earth to get Delta
and her newborn child. The Doctor tells
Murray he has to get the campers off the planet before the Bannermen arrive but
to no avail as they are destroyed at lift off.
The Doctor now must come up with a plan to save the remaining campers
and Delta and her child from the Bannermen.

Doctor Who 50th Anniversary: Paradise Towers
Doctor Who:
Paradise Towers
By Stephen Wyatt
Paradise Towers
By Stephen Wyatt
“No need to tell me. I know who you are. We have been waiting for this momentous visit for so many years. You are the man who brought Paradise Towers to life. The visionary who dreamed up its pools and lifts and squares. And now you have returned to your creation. You will make all those dilapidated lifts and rise and fall as they've never done before. All signs of wallscrawl will disappear from the corridors of Paradise Towers. The floors will gleam and the windows will shine, and will be made as new. Fellow Caretakers, do you know who this is? This is the Great Architect returned to Paradise Towers. Bid him welcome. All Hail the Great Architect, all hail.”
Red Kangs, Red Kangs, Red Kangs are best! The Doctor and Mel are obviously greeted by the Red Kangs upon arrival on Paradise Towers. Mel is in search of the swimming pool and The Doctor wants to explore the vast towers. What Mel Does not know is that the swimming pool happens to be in a building filled with death. The Doctor is mistaken for The Great Architect who was responsible for building the Towers and is rumored to have been buried in it by the inhabitants. Unfortunately for The Doctor the rule book states that upon the return of The Great Architect a three two seven appendix three subsection nine death is now in line for The Doctor.
Paradise Towers is filled with all types of characters like the Red and Blue Kangs battling each other. The Rezzies who are crazy old ladies that would like nothing more than fatten you up on cakes and tea while they salivate over how to eat you. The Towers also include the clueless Caretakers who don’t have a clue what’s going on. Let’s not forget the main guy of the entire Paradise Towers, the self-proclaimed hero, the cowardly man known as Pex. So it’s up to the Doctor, not Mel she is to obsessed with a swimming pool that it will kill her, to do battle with a really weird neon light creature called Kroagnon. Ice hot Doctor.

With Tyler fighting for his life and Kinsey having to make one of the most difficult decisions she has had to make it seems that Dodge's plan will soon be realized, but in true Locke & Key style will this ending be in Dodge's favor? The intensity and emotion that this comic has wielded only gets better and this issue is no exception. The ending is drawing near and the showdown between Dodge and the Locke kids is coming to a close and only a turn of the key can decide their fates. - Spaced (www.twitter.com/Spaced4SimonPeg)
