Reasons for reccing: This is a lovely four-part comic about the Doctor and Missy and their time in the vault (with a flashforward to the season 10 finale). There's a lot of melancholy and a bit of fragile hope, and it has a fascinating take on the passage of time and the role of memories. I like the sense that both of them have lived and known each other for a long time and that this is one special episode within that, with lots before and lots to come. I particularly like that it starts out with the Doctor narrating, telling us about Missy and her time in the vault, followed by a middle part without a narrator (but with a beautiful bit that parallels both of their "deaths" in the finale), and concludes with Missy taking over the narration and responding to it. Really love the art style, too, the simple black and white, the mix of close-ups and long shots, and the dynamic cut of the panels.
