"When the Doctor puts the principle of not being willing to shoot someone over the fate of all of humanity, what are we meant to do with him? For the second time in the Davies era, the Doctor's vain insistence on not being the one to pull the trigger is set to become the doom of humanity. We are all to be the Master, our worst impulses, the rot that sets in as the universe finally goes black, and the Doctor refuses to save us because of a moral point centering entirely on the question of propelling pieces of metal at high speeds via a controlled explosion at the base of a rifled barrel."

Non-lethal? That's just fine!
He just hung 'em up in a bundle of twine!
'Til our city's window cleaners find 'em
Ten floors up in ten months' time!
J. Jonah Jameson on Spider-Man, The Stupendium, "Pictures of Spider-Man" (based on Spider-Man (PS4))
