I’ve read a number of Dr. Strange collection and I’ve always thought the same thing: really terrific, “trippy” art and some cool ideas, but, ultimately, a shitty story. Brian K. Vaughan (the truly gifted writer behind Ex Machina and Y: The Last Man, among other things) is here to solve that problem.
Loaded with solid humor (some of it winking at the very problem I mention with Dr. Strange comics) there is an actual story here that is interesting and action that is followable, not just far out looking swirls. It even flashes back to an origin tale, so if you were ever going to pick up a Dr. Strange book for an entry, I suggest this one.
