'''''Agent Provocateur''''' was the retroactive name applied to the story that comprised all six issues of [[Doctor Who (2008)|''Doctor Who'' (2008)]] from [[IDW Publishing]], after the publication of its [[Agent Provocateur (graphic novel)|collected edition]]. It was published in the first half of 2008 in the [[United States]], and was significant for being the first original ''Doctor Who'' comic book published in that country. Originally meant to be one story in an ongoing monthly publication, it turned out to be the only story of that title, and, therefore, a mini-series. It should not be confused with IDW's later [[Doctor Who (2009)|''Doctor Who'' (2009)]], a true ongoing monthly comic book.

On the planet [[Gallifrey]] lived the [[Time Lord]]s, until the [[Last Great Time War|war]] came. All but one died.
On the planet [[Gallifrey]] lived the [[Time Lord]]s, until the [[Last Great Time War|war]] came. All but one died.


[[Tenth Doctor|The Doctor]] takes [[Martha Jones|Martha]] to a space station where Martha can have the tastiest [[milkshake]] in the whole [[universe]]. Once they get there the Doctor notices a [[Gizou]], a shapeshifting alien, currently in the form of a [[reptile|reptilian]] alien, and the Doctor decides to talk to it. Before they can catch up with the Gizou, a figure in the shadows gets an electronic whip and kills him. The Doctor and Martha find only the Gizou's remains – now ashes on the floor. The Doctor is knocked out by the same figure, who also grabs Martha with the whip. Their captor, a [[Sycorax]], takes the unconscious Doctor and Martha to his ship and he tells Martha that he is a collector of alien races. Suddenly the Doctor wakes up and the Sycorax aims his whip at the Doctor, only for the Doctor to grab it. He then begins to sabotage the Sycorax's weapon, Martha helps by destroying its staff. He tells Martha that legends say the Sycorax will be one of the last three species remaining at the time the universe ends.
