If you’re looking for a way to pass the time while you’re drifting among the stars in the TARDIS or simply waiting for the next episode of _Doctor_ _Who_ to air, the new _Doctor Who_ Coloring Book is out Tuesday.

The book lets fans of the longest running sci-fi series ever (according to the Guinness Book of World Records) color in the adventures of the time traveling Doctor and some of his greatest friends and enemies including Daleks, Cybermen, and even the Ood. Don’t blink as you color in the book’s deluxe end papers featuring the Weeping Angels.

The _Doctor Who_ coloring books are just the latest (and possibly coolest) entry in a boom in coloring books aimed at adults. Coloring [reportedly](http://time.com/money/3941973/adult-coloring-books/) helps busy minds switch off for a few minutes and focus only on filling in a sonic screwdriver or the finding the right shade of TARDIS blue, which can help alleviate free-floating anxiety.
