No longer Sorcerer Supreme of Earth, Stephen Strange embarks on adventures in Asgard and beyond this December in Doctor Strange, a new ongoing comic book series by acclaimed writer Derek Landy and rising star Ivan Fiorelli. Main covers will feature the breathtaking painted artwork of legendary fantasy illustrator Alex Horley.
Doctor Strange explores the character’s bold new status quo as Sorcerer Supreme of Asgard. Following Thor’s rebirth as a mortal in Al Ewing and Pasqual Ferry’s newly launched Thor run, Asgard’s connection to Midgard has been shattered, leaving Strange no way to return to Earth. Instead, Strange will team up with Angela, in her long awaited return, for a true Journey Into Mystery across the other realms! Armed with new abilities and weapons thanks to his growing proficiency with Asgardian magic, Strange will discover the wonder these otherworldly realms truly have to offer—along with the ancient threats submerged in their mythologies. Get a glimpse at some of the new faces Doctor Strange will encounter on his quest, from the royal family of Heven to a dark elvish sorcerer, in never-before-seen design sheets. Plus, next month’s Doctor Strange #450 one-shot includes a special prelude story by Landy and Fiorelli, introducing his mission and teasing his new mystical arsenal. It’ll also debut his new look, designed by artist Geoff Shaw.
STEPHEN STRANGE, STRANDED!
After becoming Sorcerer Supreme of Asgard, Strange lost his chance at redemption—and revenge against Doom—when Loki murdered Thor, cutting Midgard off from the other nine realms. With no way home and few allies remaining in Asgard, Strange travels to Alfheim to investigate an emerging crisis. But in an unfamiliar land, can Strange prevent elves and angels from going to war over a mysterious coffin? Maybe, with some help from Heven’s own Angela!
Check out the debut issue’s cover along with variant covers by Luciano Vecchio and Fanyang, the latter of which will also be available as a virgin variant cover. Preorder Doctor Strange #1 at your local comic shop today and stay tuned for more information about the series in the months ahead.
