The Widow's Curse (graphic novel)
- You may be looking for the titular comic story.
The Widow's Curse was the twelfth volume of the Panini Publishing series of Doctor Who Magazine comic collections, and the second to feature the Tenth Doctor. In included those Tenth Doctor DWM strips from the middle of his run, and gave DWM's take on Martha Jones and Donna Noble.
Like all in the series, it was notable for its high quality digital restoration of the comics. It was the first chance readers had of seeing the original version of the comics since they were first published in DWM in 2007 and 2008.
Though planned as the second of three Tenth Doctor volumes, it ended up being the final Tenth Doctor collection when The Crimson Hand was cancelled just weeks before it was due to be published. Indeed, the entire line was upended after Curse came out. Despite planning to the contrary, this became the final release in Panini's DWM graphic novel series.
