It was fun, involved some time stuff, famous history looped in, and callbacks to David Tenant's (Doctor Ten's) Blink episode that introduced the Weeping Angels. I enjoyed the whole production including the audio play elements of crash effects and crowd noises and such. I am sure it was also fun for Davison or the writers knowing all the Davison-Tenant connections of Tenant being a big Davison fan as a kid who inspired him into acting and wanting to play the Doctor, and later stuff like Tenant eventually marrying Davison's daughter. Oddly for a Doctor Who story there was no regular companion, just temporary ones he meets and then leaves for this story.I also finished the Batman Graphic novel The Cult from the 90s. Written by Jim Starlin I was pretty excited to see something by him (a name I recognized though not well) and a graphic novel I had not heard of at all. I was unfortunately quite disappointed in both the story and the batman characterization. The celebration of Batman as a hard man who can cross lines and cause damage the Army cannot because of its restrictions on targets and methods, the abandoning people to die so he can push on to get to confront the main villain a little quicker, the exulting in causing pain. The building up of the supernatural immortal villain who had criminal records going back a century that gets exposed but then not following that up at all. The absurdly oversized monster truck batmobile struck me as ridiculous and not fun. The batman use of guns.</blockquote>
