Funny thing about this is I read this right before reading the Eternals omnibus， which has some super strong writing from Peter Gillis。 This book， however， was a massive disappointment。 I can only speak for myself but any book that's comprised of 50% exposition and flashbacks， is just awful。 Rule #1 of pretty much any kind of storytelling: Show， don't tell。 Most of this book was telling。 The few showing parts， mostly related to some admittedly awesome gothic horror tropes， was great。 Funny thing about this is I read this right before reading the Eternals omnibus， which has some super strong writing from Peter Gillis。 This book， however， was a massive disappointment。 I can only speak for myself but any book that's comprised of 50% exposition and flashbacks， is just awful。 Rule #1 of pretty much any kind of storytelling: Show， don't tell。 Most of this book was telling。 The few showing parts， mostly related to some admittedly awesome gothic horror tropes， was great。 。。。more

A huge collection of the adventures of the Sorceror Supreme。It’s a good collection; the stories follow the events of the previous Strange Tales series， and draws heavily from earlier Doctor Strange stories as well。The various artists are also good， but occasionally seemed like their work was being rushed。The first half is the better half， but I think the issues that tie into Infinity Gauntlet would be better when read alongside the main series and the relevant Silver Surfer tie ins。

By the hoary hosts of hoggoth， did i strugle with this omnibus ！！I was seriously bummed out with this one， but not everything can be good what you read i guess。。 I had high hopes because i think Dr Strange is one of the characters with huge potential， and the story can go multiple ways with all his out of this world stories。 Its also only the second Dr Strange book i read after the first couple trades of Jason Aaron's run。 So i was pretty eager to read more of the character。 But the stories are By the hoary hosts of hoggoth， did i strugle with this omnibus ！！I was seriously bummed out with this one， but not everything can be good what you read i guess。。 I had high hopes because i think Dr Strange is one of the characters with huge potential， and the story can go multiple ways with all his out of this world stories。 Its also only the second Dr Strange book i read after the first couple trades of Jason Aaron's run。 So i was pretty eager to read more of the character。 But the stories are just not engaging enough for me， the presentation of women in this book are just on the edge of distasteful， this is a book from a different era and it shows。 Its also filled with dozens of back up stories and filler issues， some even barely mentioning Stephen Strange ！？！ On top of that you have villains like Doctor Blood， who's costume is just literally a rip off of the original Wolverine costume， but just in another color and different ears， and even Scarecrow。。 Yeah Scarecrow， the Batman villain， but here just a lame version of with excactly the same name。。 What the actual fuck！ There are cool things aswell， the kirby esque strangeness at times （no pun intended） is cool， and issues with Strange together with Adam Warlock and The Silver Surfer， and even freaking Doctor Doom are a blast， but i just wanted more of this ！ Also some issues that run together with The Infinity Gauntlet and give some more info what was going on， but in the end it just isnt enough。 The artwork is decent at times， but changes almost every issue， something i am not the biggest fan of。 All in all just a disapointed read。 I finished it fast but just because i wanted to have it over with。。2。5 stars。 。。。more

Story-wise， I enjoyed the early and later parts of this first volume of Doctor Strange， Sorcerer Supreme， but for me the long section in the middle with the vampires and such， was a slog for me。 The rotating artists make the aesthetic and style uneven from beginning to end。 I found the later artists more personally appealing with a stronger sense and allusion to the Ditko-esque strangeness of the good doctor’s origins。 The abundance of the dolled-up， over-sexualized， cheesecake presentations of Story-wise， I enjoyed the early and later parts of this first volume of Doctor Strange， Sorcerer Supreme， but for me the long section in the middle with the vampires and such， was a slog for me。 The rotating artists make the aesthetic and style uneven from beginning to end。 I found the later artists more personally appealing with a stronger sense and allusion to the Ditko-esque strangeness of the good doctor’s origins。 The abundance of the dolled-up， over-sexualized， cheesecake presentations of the female characters in the first half of the book is distasteful and distracting to the overall storytelling。 Do we really need to see parties， nighties， and the like in every issue？ That being said， I understand these stories are a result of their place in history， and for better or worse， my sensibilities are just not the same as those of the time。 All in all I thought these were entertaining stories in the grand myths of Doctor Strange。 。。。more

That's a whole lot of 90s Doctor Strange。 This is from the time period where comics were finally getting out of the habit of being verbose for the sake of verbosity， so at least it is an easy read。 Nothing essential happens plot-wise though， so your enjoyment will probably stem totally from how much you like the characters。 The art is a little uneven， but I like the late 80s fashion/ad campaign style so it is a positive for me。 That's a whole lot of 90s Doctor Strange。 This is from the time period where comics were finally getting out of the habit of being verbose for the sake of verbosity， so at least it is an easy read。 Nothing essential happens plot-wise though， so your enjoyment will probably stem totally from how much you like the characters。 The art is a little uneven， but I like the late 80s fashion/ad campaign style so it is a positive for me。 。。。more
