Four Doctors (comic story)
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
Four Doctors was a miniseries published by Titan Comics. It served as a three-way crossover between Titan's ongoing series Doctor Who: The Twelfth Doctor, Doctor Who: The Eleventh Doctor and Doctor Who: The Tenth Doctor, uniting the three Doctors and their companions, as well as marking the Titan Comics début of the War Doctor. It also featured a cameo by the Ninth Doctor and Rose Tyler. It's also the first time that an incarnation from the Doctor's second regeneration cycle met two incarnations from his original cycle.

Notes
- The main setting, plot, and villains within Four Doctors appear to be a call-back to Doctor Who and the Daleks, one of the first non-TV pieces of Doctor Who media. Both feature parts of their stories set on Marinus and Earth, and both feature the Daleks and Voord as villains while illustrating the two in a struggle.
- All three issues feature unique narration from each of the different characters.
- Issue one takes the story mainly from Clara Oswald's point-of-view, with her internal monologues and no one else's.
- Issue two features the journal scribblings and thoughts of Gabby Gonzalez.
- Issue three featured Alice Obiefune's internal comments during the story.
- Issue four featured Gabby's internal comments during the story.
- The comic was printed with back-up stories.
- Issue 1 included The Doctor Shops for Comics.
- Issue 2 included Open Mic Night.
- Issue 3 included The Meeting.
- Issue 4 included The Doctors Do... Classic Comedy.
- Issue 5 included The Doctor Shops for Angels, completing the loop to the first back-up strip.
- After its 5-issue print run, the story was reprinted in Titan's Doctor Who Comic magazine. Its launch saw a restart of that magazine's numbering scheme.
