1st Dr. Strange in his own title + Origin retold; Formerly titled "Strange Tales" Dan Adkins cover/art; COMIC BOOK IMPACT rating of 7 (CBI)
Highest Graded
From his humble beginnings in the back pages of Strange Tales, which didn’t even register a cover appearance, to his current status as one of the main protagonists of the MCU, Doctor Strange has led one heck of a bumpy ride through the storied history of Marvel comics. This is the good doctor’s premiere as the star of his own title, which recounts his epic origin tale, the tragic car accident that destroys his hands, the alcoholic self-loathing, the encounter with the Ancient One, and his eventual transformation into Doctor Strange. Picking up the numbering of where Strange Tales left off, this is an important key of the late Silver Age, which has been growing in value of late.



Thanks to the blockbuster success of “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness” the Sorcerer Supreme is one of the hottest characters in Marvel’s stable due in no small part to the stellar portrayal of the magical hero by Benedict Cumberbatch. It goes without saying that owning a highest-graded copy of the first appearance of Dr. Strange in his solo title, which continued the numbering of Strange Tales, is a no-brainer. The book is in pristine condition, with nary a flaw visible to the naked eye, a very valuable auction lot indeed, one which should be the subject of intense interest to many savvy investment collectors out there.
