The Ninth Doctor comic stories feature the ninth incarnation of the Doctor from the television science fiction series Doctor Who . The Ninth Doctor's brief comic tenure included the involvement of Rose Tyler. No other Doctor had a run as brief as the Ninth and none used exclusively his televised companion.
The Ninth Doctor's Doctor Who Magazine run was the only one ever completely drawn by a single penciller — Mike Collins — though other eras were nearly drawn by a single artist. The Ninth Doctor's run as the incumbent Doctor was just nine DWM issues long, plus a single story in an annual, making him by far the shortest-lived Doctor in comics. An ongoing comic book was launched by Titan in 2016.
