This week, Dr. Strange is celebrating his 60th birthday. The Sorcerer Supreme doesn’t look a day over…well, his age is sort of hard to pin down in the comics. Let’s say 45 just to be safe?
Regardless, there are a lot of really interesting Dr. Strange comics out there, even if a whole lot of them are either team-ups, Defenders stories, or curios (like the excellent “Doctor Strange and Doctor Doom: Triumph and Torment” by Roger Stern and Mike Mignola). Dr. Strange is the perfect character to use as, essentially, anything you want him to be, which allows writers and artists to take a lot of liberties with the character in the best possible ways. There are lots of bad stories for every long-tenured character, but most of the bad Strange ones are because the creativity behind the page doesn’t match what the character can do on it.
So, vote in our Reader Poll, and check back on Monday for the results!
