About the series
In this three-issue miniseries from Titan Comics (2017–2018), the Eleventh Doctor encounters a strange, rapidly evolving alien lifeform that he names the Sapling, leading to a deeply personal and morally complex story about parenthood, growth, and letting go. Written by Si Spurrier with art by Simon Fraser, the tale unfolds across time and space as the Doctor must decide the creature's fate. A compact, emotionally resonant chapter in the Doctor's comic adventures, it stands out for its intimate focus on the Doctor's compassion and the bittersweet nature of caring for something wild.
