Empire of the Wolf (comic story)

 was the story published in the Doctor Who: Empire of Wolf miniseries in 2021, starring the Eighth and Eleventh Doctors.

Despite being promoted as a celebration of the 25th anniversary of the Eighth Doctor's debut, the story arguably contains more elements from "modern" Doctor Who media, most notably the return of Rose Tyler, at a time which postdates the events of Journey's End in her personal timeline. As such, it offered yet another account of Rose's life with the so-called Meta-Crisis Tenth Doctor which, while baring a closer resemblance to what was established in The Turning of the Tide, also posed a contradiction to that story by implying that the Doctor now went by the name of "John Smith" rather than "Corin".

Another central aspect to the story was the return of the alternate version of Rose, introduced in Alternating Current.
