The Green-Eyed Monster is a Tenth Doctor comic story originally published in DWM 377.

Summary[[edit] | [edit source]]

Rose Tyler wakes to find herself alone in the Doctor's TARDIS. She leaves the vessel to find herself in the middle of a chaotic alien TV talk show, the Vanexxa Skank Show, and she's the star. She finds herself faced with bizarre stories about her relationship with the Tenth Doctor from none other than Mickey Smith, who suddenly has an Amazonian girlfriend named Phalia. Things get even worse when she discovers the Doctor has become her mother's boyfriend! Rose's seething jealousy holds the key to saving her life.

Notes[[edit] | [edit source]]

  • The Green-Eyed Monster is the final DWM comic story to feature Rose Tyler. The last panel includes a dedication to Billie Piper, Camille Coduri and Noel Clarke.
  • The Green-Eyed Monster is, to date, the only DWM comic strip in which Jackie Tyler appears, after she was hard off-panel in The Lodger.
  • When Jackie kisses the Doctor a second time, Rose breaks the fourth wall to comment on the spectacle to the readers.
  • Given the fact that much of The Green-Eyed Monster consists of fabrications devised by the Doctor to play with Rose's emotions and defeat the Iagnon, it is hard to separate fact from fiction. As it is indicated that Rose had the Iagnon implanted while she was asleep by the Acolytes of Iagnos, the visit to the planet Iagnos did indeed occur. However, Phalia and her Amazastians — with their repeated references to the Doctor's relationship to Rose — would appear to be actors hired by the Doctor. It's not known whether Rose was actually in a "time coma" for weeks as described. It is also not known if the Doctor is truthful when he states that three months have passed, though certainly enough time had to have passed to allow the Doctor, Jackie and Mickey to orchestrate the charade.
  • According to Clayton Hickman in his commentary on the strip in the Panini graphic novel omnibus The Betrothal of Sontar, a strip originally showed Rose waking up in a bed, but this was vetoed by Russell T Davies, who stated that no one sleeps in the TARDIS in the new series, though this assertion was later refuted in the Steven Moffat era episode The Doctor's Wife, which mentions the TARDIS as having bunkbeds.
