The Gift (comic story)


 * For other uses see: The Gift.

The Gift was a Sixth Doctor comic strip published in Doctor Who Magazine. It was later republished in The World Shapers graphic novel and a review of that compilation in DWM 398 held it to be "one of the finest strips yet written". It also claimed The Gift would be the hit of the season, if only the BBC could afford to produce it for television.
