I've been following Doctor Strange for years now, but this whole series was a twist I never expected. The entire premise is that Doctor Strange has fixed his hands (long story, check out the last few issues of the previous series), and he's now trying to balance being a top surgeon with being the Sorcerer Supreme. Talk about being an overachiever, right?
But seriously, I was more than a little bit curious about this series. So far, I'm happy with what has been delivered, though I still have some questions - which I'm sure will be answered in future issues. I enjoyed the setup for this issue, and the antagonist was a fun surprise. I'm looking forward to the next issue, which is always a pleasant surprise.

Dr. Stephen Strange was the world’s greatest neurosurgeon and an arrogant jerk, who only used his skills to help those who could afford his steep fees. A car accident forever injured his hands, leaving him unable to hold a scalpel, much less perform complex surgeries. Desperate to retain his lofty position, Strange spent his fortune traveling the world, looking for anything that might cure him.
In his journeys, Strange came to learn two things. He learned that magic was real and how to wield it for his own purposes. But more importantly, Strange came to learn humility and how ultimately small he was in the grand scheme of things. Thus did Doctor Strange become a wizard and in time earn the title of Sorcerer Supreme; the universe’s chief guardian against mystic evils.
If you’re already a Doctor Strange fan, you’re in for a treat. And if you aren’t already a Doctor Strange fan, this book may make you into one. It’s definitely worth a try, at least, if you enjoy tales of magic and superheroes or medical dramas.
