This omnibus collects Stan Lee & Steve Ditko's complete collaboration on Doctor Strange - here I give you a look through the book and my thoughts on the material
Yeah he's an interesting character, I know some of his early stories are collected in the Marvel Horror Omnibus which I've reviewed in the past, not sure if I'll get the Masterworks collection honestly just because of having plenty of other books on my radar already!
I can't prove it but I believe Dr. Strange was influenced by Jack Parsons. The Greenwhich Village aspect is also referencing the Bohemian occultists of the 30's & 40's.
Nice overview! I'm planning to buy this with vol. 2, now that both are out. Did some Dr. Strange omnibus related searches the other day as a result of which this video popped up on my RU-vid feed making we aware of this channel. Glad it did! I've subscribed to your channel.
It's confusing when they use different covers. This was the DM cover for the first printing, they used a different Ditko image (a pinup I think) for the second printing
