DOCTOR STRANGE #1...

Copyright MARVEL COMICS

When it comes to Doctor Strange, the late Steve Ditko was, in my opinion, the definitive artist on the strip.  Other artists have, of course, worked their own illustrative magic on the Doc's mystical adventures, but if I had to choose between them all, it would be Ditko's iconic issues which would be accompanying me on my journey to that mythical desert island were I ever to become a castaway.

You'll all have your own preferences I'm sure, and here's another one to consider - the 'first' issue of a new series starring the Doc which you Crivvies may be interested in.  I was pleasantly entertained by it, but rather than tell you what it's all about, I thought I'd just hit you with some pages and see if they manage to pique your curiosity.  Now's your chance to get in on the ground floor - don't miss it!

Have you got a favourite Doctor Strange issue from the '60s or '70s?  Tell your fellow readers which one it is - and why.
