 LIGHT PILLARS
The breadth, form and location of a light pillar depends upon the type and orientation of the ice crystals, their height in the sky and distance from the observer, and the altitude of the light source.

McCoy is really given a chance to nail his Doctor's character here and it's a real shame that he never got to continue his interpretation of the role, and take it to new heights.
And since alot of Doctor Who stories tend not to make much sense by the end anyway, I feel it would be prudent for us to embrace 'Ghost Light' as the superb piece of television drama that it is, rather than dwell on the occasional piece of lazy exposition.

 doctor who: the cabinet of light - book review for zone-sf.com
In The Cabinet Of Light, as in the first TV episode, rather than being the scientist/detective who investigates evil doings, the Doctor is the subject of the investigation.
The Cabinet Of Light returns to the East London of that novella, albeit the immediate post-war East End of 1949 not of 1963, where a fl market 'fixer', called Honore Lechasseur is hired by a woman calling herself Emily Blandish to track down her husband, the Doctor.
However, far from being the monstrous throwback at the heart of darkness, the Doctor is seen as the bringer of light and fire, whose power is both destructive and enlightening, an angel to some, a devil to others.

 Teen Titans #22 Review - Silver Bullet Comics
Comments: While Doctor Light has always been a bit of a joke to me, frankly I became a fan of the character during his stint in Suicide Squad, thanks largely to his various insecurities, and the occasional flash of madness that lurks beneath his moronic exterior.
This issue also manages to play up the idea that Doctor Light's powers can be more that blasts of blinding light and lasers, as I rather like the way the character is able to control all the various energies that he comes into contact with.
In fact, the scenes where Doctor Light takes down the Teen Titans are surprisingly effective, as there's a lovely bit where Doctor Light manages to pull the heat vision out of a downed Superboy, and the scene where Impulse is crippled is extremely powerful.
