Assuming the Doctor is of the "Who" variety, and not Wildstorm or something...then this isn't even close. And yes, I'm aware of Reed's feats. Like, even minor episodes of the show usually involve a planetary-level threat, and he usually stops them with the sci-fi equivalent of some duct tape and string.
Originally posted by DigiYep, I posted this thread in honor of the best series in the history of sci-fi unveiling their 9th and potentially greatest Doctor. If Captain Kirk and MacGuyver had a son it would be the Doctor. I'm kinda surprised this hasn't been closed already. Compared to the Doctor, the threats Reed and Warlock have dealt with are just a Monday.

Well, if a bloodlusted Doctor is given a week of prep, I agree. He isn't the type to be proactive about this stuff unless he needs to be...his normal procedure is to muck up the prep of others, not come in with universal-level guns blazing. But he's faced (and beaten) abstract entities before.
But like, in 20 minutes on a random space station, he put together a Delta Wave generator with spare parts that could literally fry everything on Earth and the space around it. And if he had had a bit more time, he could have refined it to target only a specific type of creature. If he needs to do that kind of crazy stuff, he can.
One time in the comics, he turned it to a weird setting and it created a barrier against a weapon that could rip a hole in spacetime, or a being that could, or something like that. Anyway, he was like "Oh, didn't know it could do that." I don't care that the screwdriver, TARDIS, and Doctor himself are walking deus ex plot devices. I just love him too much to worry about it.
Originally posted by Digiseveral of the older doctor's were actually rather proactive. Hell the 6th was quite the dick chessmaster of the incarnations.
