Review: Doctor Strange #1 [2015] Jason Aaron | Chris Bachalo


Doctor Strange discovers the cost of using his magic to save people has a debt that needs to be paid. Later Strange deals with a woman with a soul-eater on her head and discovers a storm is coming. Meanwhile in the 13th dimension the Sorcerer Supreme falls and the storm is heading towards Strange. We have not had an issue of Doctor Strange for years and it would have been great if we had a self-contained story revealing his abilities instead of exposition revealing what will happen in subsequent issues. Overall the issue is a slow burn building up to something larger by the twelfth issue which will be the same time the movie hits theaters on November 4th, 2016.
