Strange #1: Mini-Review


Marvel has given Dr. Strange a rough go of it the last few years. The Hulk crushed his hands, he became addicted to dark magic, and he gave up the title of Sorcerer Supreme. You should skip this book if all of that exposition was new to you as Waid does not fill in the blanks for new readers. The art suits the story, although I am not normally a fan of manga style art for North American superheroes. The final verdict is that those fanboys out there who know Dr. Strange and his history will be interested enough to try this and see where it leads in issue #2, but other should pass this book for something more accessible.
