The Abominable Showmen (comic story)
The Abominable Showmen was a back up comic story printed in Doctor Who: The Twelfth Doctor issue 11. The story followed directly from the events of The Meddling of Clara's Song, which itself began where Day of the Tune had left off. This marked the first time which the Titan back-up comic stories printed for the series had attempted a continuous story throughout the issues.
The story is also notable for being one of the few multi-Master stories -- the story featured the return of the incarnation of the Master previously played by Roger Delgado, Peter Pratt and Geoffrey Beevers, Eric Roberts, John Simm and Michelle Gomez. For Gomez, Roberts, and Smith, this marked their first full-time appearance outside of the show and prose.
