West of Bathurst

So yeah...I accidentally missed the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who two weeks ago and am therefore making up for it now. Also, it's high time Marie had another conversation with her tiny Eleventh Doctor.

This is West of Bathurst's 1,400th in-sequence comic.

Saturday, December 7, 2013

Panel 1: In the title panel of this Sunday-style colour comic, Marie has climbed to the very top of a mountain to consult a tiny action figure of the Eleventh Doctor from Doctor Who. A very small TARDIS flies past, towing a sign reading "West of Bathurst (by Kari Maaren)."

Panel 2: Marie lies on her futon and talks to her little Eleventh Doctor action figure.

Marie: I'm in real trouble this time, tiny Eleventh Doctor.

Panel 3:

Marie: I thought I was doing the right thing. I thought I had it all worked out and Casey would have to agree with me.

Panel 4:

Marie: But it doesn't work like that, does it? I can't just make him do things.

Panel 5:

Marie: Tiny Eleventh Doctor, am I trying to take the easy way out? Am I ignoring vital clues because they're just too hard to deal with? Am I in the wrong here?

Panel 6: Marie stares at the Eleventh Doctor.

Panel 7: Marie and Barbara are in a restaurant, the Eleventh Doctor on the table between them.

Marie: He's still made of plastic.

Barbara: That is his tragedy.
