Alien Babies!
Alien Babies! is a regular, parodic comic strip feature in Doctor Who Adventures, drawn by Jamie Smart. Like Doctor Who?, a similar comic strip from Doctor Who Magazine, it's obviously a parody and quite distinct from the main comic story featured in each issue. It depicts humorous gags and situations involving exaggerated, infantile versions of characters from the Russell T Davies and Steven Moffat eras of Doctor Who.
Its basic conceit is that a parodic version of Dorium Maldovar owns a nursery in the Medusa Cascade that houses various troublemaking babies, drawn from various DWU races. Dorium's charges are:
- Blun the Slitheen
- Simon the Cyberman
- Sturp the Sontaran
- Eldast the Silurian
- Chas and Chelsea the Weeping Angel cherubs
These babies are constantly harassed by a DWU rogue's gallery, which initially consisted mainly of the Doctor's foes from series 7.
The feature dates from DWA 313, and was brought onboard as a part of the so-called "relaunch" of Doctor Who Adventures on 28 March 2013.[1]
