Mini-motto: “I’m the Doctor. And if you don’t like it … if you want to take it to a higher authority, then there isn’t one. It stops with me.”
This magazine can be recycled: “If you don’t – you might get absorbed.”
Frau Clovis: “All calls to The Duke of Manhattan are monitored for evidence of wailing space banshees”
