Warning : spoiler for My Adventures with Superman # 4Supermanhas faced an extended rogues gallery of opposition from across the DC Universe in his clip as a sub , but the up-to-the-minute one might be the most unusual yet . consider it or not , it ’s pull right from a pop TV show ! Superman ’s fresh enemy reverberate a monster from the BBC’sDoctor Who , and it ’s everything I never knew I postulate .
InMy Adventures with Superman#4 by Josie Campbell and Pablo M. Collar , Superman ’s friends and family have take in in an Amazo robot and are keeping him hidden in a orphic political science facility . While in hiding , Martha and Jonathan Kent embellish for Christmas , which includes setting up a Christmas tree they found in storage . However , Lois find that something is fishy about the tree .
This mutated Christmas tree that tries to assail the Kents reminds me of a similar opposition from one ofDoctor Who ’s Christmas specials , in a surprising crossing that puts a smile on my face as a longtime Whovian .

The Doctor Faced Superman’s Monster, Years Earlier
The magazine above is fromDoctor Who ’s 2005 Christmas special , " The Christmas Invasion " . In this episode , a mysterious Christmas tree appear in the home ofcompanion Rose Tylerand set on her category . This bit shares a hilarious resemblance to the scenery inMy Adventures with Superman , asboth Rose and Lois musical composition together that the Christmas tree is no average treeand have to halt it as it assail . The chief difference is that the Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree in theDoctor Whospecial is remote - control , while the tree Lois and Jimmy face off against is a mutation . Still , the similarities are impossible to ignore .
The first two issues ofDoctor Who ’s recent comic series , Doctor Who : The Fifteenth Doctor , are available now from Titan Books , and the third issue ( by Dan Watters and Kelsey Ramsay ) is set to release on September 25th , 2024 .
This cunning nodisn’t the first sentence a Superman foe has resembled aDoctor Whomonsterin recent remembering .

While in his cyborg signifier , Jon is unresponsive to his father ’s attempts to reach him , much like howCybermen have their emotion stripped awaywhen they ’re converted . They may seem like an unlikely pair , butDoctor Whoand its creatures are a perfect fit for Superman .
Doctor Whoand Superman Go Together Surprisingly Well
Superman Should Borrow More from the Doctor’s Sci-fi World
As a fan of both Superman andDoctor Who , this " crosswalk " is unexpected but appreciate . Superman is n’t the only DC superhero who has encounteredfoes inspired by iconicDoctor Whomonsters , but Superman andDoctor Whoare a match made in heaven that I ’d never considered before . Doctor Whohas stack of unique villainsthat future Superman stories can draw inspiration from , and it would be a delicacy to see any of them fight the Man of Steel . Supermancomics could always use more cockamamie sci - fi concepts like Christmas Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree mutants , and no serial pulls off wacky sci - fi unspoiled thanDoctor Who .
My risky venture with Superman#4is useable now from DC Comics .
