Welcome to this week’s Doctor Who‘s Day roundup, a collection of various items of Whovian jetsam that has washed up on the virtual shores of the internet over the past seven days or so.

And this week we begin with a mini-trawl of all the Doctor Who-related stuff and nonsense that happened at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con. Despite there being no official panel this year, the Doctor and his friends were more than ably represented in other places. Especially so, in the case of the naturally extrovert John Barrowman.

For starters, here he is at the BBC AMERICA booth:

Accompanied by the Fourth Doctor…

• And then, taking things up a notch, he popped up not only as Futurama‘s Zapp Brannigan…

…but Marvel’s Squirrel Girl too.

• Elsewhere, there was further cosplay of a Whovian nature….

• Although that is actually the real Steven Moffat:

• Karen Gillan appeared in this incredible lineup of women in the Marvel comic universe:

Look at all of these incredible women in Marvel movies. Honoured to be in the same space as them! #womenofmarvel

…and then stole the show at the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 panel with this zinger, based on that time she shaved all her hair off:

• We found out that the Tenth Doctor will be invading Quahog:

• Joss Whedon answers the “would you write a Doctor Who script?” question:

• Titan Comics unveiled this spectacular image (and how badass does Twelve look here?):

• And this meetup between Twelve and Four:

Here’s what else has been going on in space and time this week:

• Ralf Little addresses the rumors that he’s appearing in Doctor Who:

• Three Doctors sonic-ing up a storm:

• A little Austen-tatious:

• This is wonderful, a gallery of backstage shots and production stills from the various regeneration scenes down the years:

• Two old men, having a natter:

• And finally, let’s round things off with a recent YouTube find, in which SWL Pham—a YouTuber with an inquisitive mind and some editing software—has answered the question, “What would the Doctor’s duel with Robin Hood look like, if they had lightsabers (or, technically, a lightsaber and a lightspoon)?”

This:

TTFN!
