Doctor Who fans are all familiar with The Master. More enemy of the Doctor than friend, for 50 years–since January 1971–the original Whovian frenemy has menaced the show’s hero at every turn. A Timelord in his own right, he regenerates like the Doctor, which has resulted in nine actors playing the character in 107 series episodes. In the era of the 12th Doctor played by Peter Capaldi, the role was played by the brilliant Michelle Gomez, who would go on to create another show-stopping villain in The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. In the incarnation as Missy, she became the very best feature of the 12th Doctor’s story lines. This spring a new limited series from Titan Comics, Doctor Who: Missy, celebrates the 50th year of this notorious villain.
