Thrill-Seeker was a Doctor Who Adventures comic strip published in 2014.

Summary

The Eleventh Doctor and Clara Oswald find themselves being hunted by an army of alien foes. But as they flee for their lives the Doctor suspects something is wrong. How can all these aliens be working together in pursuit of them when they shouldn't even get on with each? The natural smell of the Amdruks should instantly blind the Zzzatsots, for example. Then the Doctor realises what is going on. He stops Clara and tells her to start thinking about boring things.

As their excitement levels drop, their pursuers fade away and the Doctor and Clara find themselves in a virtual reality simulation where a thrill-seeker has been feeding off of the excitement generated by the Doctor and Clara's minds. By becoming bored the Thrill-seeker is starved of his excitement and everything is ruined for him. But the Doctor has a better way for the Thrill-Seeker to get his thrills — and takes him comet surfing, a real thrill!
