Print run estimate: 189,000 copies. Doctor Stephen Vincent Strange, best known under his alias Doctor Strange, is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. Created by artist Steve Ditko, the character first appeared in Strange Tales issue 110 published in July 1963. A former neurosurgeon, Strange serves as the Sorcerer Supreme, the primary protector of Earth against magical and mystical threats. Debuting in the Silver Age of comics, the character has been featured in several eponymous comics series and licensed derivative media including video games, an animated television show, films, and merchandise such as trading cards and figurines. A Marvel Studios live-action film adaptation, starring Benedict Cumberbatch in the titular role, is set for a 2016 theatrical release. Dr. Strange debuted in Strange Tales #110 (July 1963), a split book shared with the feature The Human Torch. Doctor Strange appeared in issues #110–111 and #114 before the character's eight-page origin story appeared in #115 (Dec. 1963). Scripter Lee's take on the character was inspired by the Chandu the Magician radio program that aired on the Mutual Broadcasting System in the 1930s. With issue #135 (Aug. 1965), The Human Torch feature was replaced, and Dr. Strange began sharing Strange Tales with the espionage series Nick Fury, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. Ditko drew Dr. Strange through issue #146 (July 1966), and during this period he and Lee introduced many of Strange's allies, such as his eventual lover Clea, who debuted, initially unnamed, in Strange Tales #126 (Nov. 1964); and enemies, such as the flame-headed Dormammu in that same issue, and Nightmare in #110.

  • Doctor Strange Comics As Post-Fantasy
    Evolving a Genre: Doctor Strange Comics as Post-Fantasy Jessie L. Rogers Thesis submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in English Karen Swenson, Chair Nancy A. Metz Katrina M. Powell April 15, 2019 Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords: Fantasy, Comics Studies, Postmodernism, Post-Fantasy Copyright 2019, Jessie L. Rogers Evolving a Genre: Doctor Strange Comics as Post-Fantasy Jessie L. Rogers (ABSTRACT) This thesis demonstrates that Doctor Strange comics incorporate established tropes of the fantastic canon while also incorporating postmodern techniques that modernize the genre. Strange’s debut series, Strange Tales, begins this development of stylistic changes, but it still relies heavily on standard uses of the fantastic. The 2015 series, Doctor Strange, builds on the evolution of the fantastic apparent in its predecessor while evidencing an even stronger presence of the postmodern. Such use of postmodern strategies disrupts the suspension of disbelief on which popular fantasy often relies. To show this disruption and its effects, this thesis examines Strange Tales and Doctor Strange (2015) as they relate to the fantastic cornerstones of Tolkien’s The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings and Rowling’s Harry Potter series. It begins by defining the genre of fantasy and the tenets of postmodernism, then it combines these definitions to explain the new genre of postmodern fantasy, or post-fantasy, which Doctor Strange comics develop. To show how these comics evolve the fantasy genre through applications of postmodernism, this thesis examines their use of otherworldliness and supernaturalism, as well as their characterization and narrative strategies, examining how these facets subvert our expectations of fantasy texts.

This study focuses on categorization and function of the characters in the movie and conflicts in the main character (external and internal conflicts). The data of this study were taken from a movie entitled Doctor Strange. The data were collected through documentation method. In analyzing the data, the study used qualitative method.

Secondary characters are The Ancient One (static protagonist character), Mordo (static protagonist character) and Christine (dynamic protagonist character). The supporting character is Wong (static protagonist character). Then there are two types of conflicts found in this movie, internal and external conflicts.

    1 Bargaining with Eternity and Numbering One’s Days Medicine, Nietzsche, and Doctor Strange George A. Dunn From the standpoint of modern medicine, death is a failure—and one of the first things that we learn in the 2016 movie Doctor Strange is that Stephen Strange does not like to fail. In fact, at the time of the automobile accident that brought his brilliant career as a neurosur- geon to a tragic end, Stephen Strange and failure had apparently never yet crossed paths. He had a “perfect record,” as he casually reminded Nurse Billy in an offhand boast when Billy proposed that he help a “68‐year‐old female with an advanced brain stem glioma.” Such a diagnosis predicted a poor outcome that he would prefer not to have sully his résumé. At the same time, though, he doesn’t want to build his reputation on easy victories. He declines to help “a 35‐year‐old Air Force colonel who crushed his spine in some sort of experimental armor,” dismissing it as the surgical equivalent of child’s play: “I could help but so can fifty other people.”1 So it’s no surprise that after Stephen’s catastrophic accident that crushes his hands, his world collapses. Physical therapy alone can never restore his hands to what they were before and—ironically, in light of his own practice of rejecting patients who might ruin his perfect record—another doctor rejects him as a candidate for a cutting‐ edge experimentalCOPYRIGHTED treatment lest it fail and ruin MATERIAL the doctor’s reputation.

I love The Flash, Batman, Plastic Man, Elongated Man, Johnny Thunder, Wildcat, and especially The Justice Soci- ety. Always my favorite. Marvel had The Hulk, who was awesome at times, and Daredevil. When I was growing up, there was the X-Men, at the time the biggest thing in comics. I liked the X-Men to a degree, but always into the DC stuff far more. On the plus side, there were stories back in the day that were awesome. There was a X-Men issue where it was Kitty telling a bedtime story about Pirates! But mostly, it passed over me while I was reading about Barry Allen and Crisis On Infinite Earths.
