Well, I know that Fuck Yeah Doctor Strange would love this type of spamming.

The Mystic Hands of Doctor Strange #1.
I was going to spam a few images until I realised that I’m hardly that cool so it would probably only lose me followers and earn me contempt so here are a few choice panels/pages from this comic. Due to having a #1 and no “One-Shot” on the cover, I am slightly confused as to whether there are more on the way or not, but we can enjoy this one while it’s here.
It’s a really good premise. Inside, are four stories; different artists, different authors, but all in black and white.
Story 1: The Cure - Writer: Kieron Gillen Artist: Frazer Irving
I may now be in love with Frazer Irving, because his art is just so delicious and beautiful and I want more. In this story, Dr. Strange infiltrates a psychiatric home under the care of a mysterious Doktor.Story 2: Melancholia - Writer: Peter Milligan Artist: Frank Brunner
Opening scene: A man and a wife at a table, arguing. Ending scene: A mysterious panel alluding to Dr. Strange’s past. What happens in between? You’ll have to read it yourself, but it’s a neat little story that sits well in the book.Story 3: So this is how it feels - Writer/Artist: Ted McKeever
This was the weakest story, for me. Almost abstract and on the edge of reality which is not unexpected for the Sorcerer Supreme, but it does put it at the bottom of my pile. Interesting art, though.Story 4: Duel in the Dark Dimension - Writer: Mike Carey Artist: Marcos Martin
This is the most unique story in this book. Why? Because it’s actually that. A short story. No comic panels, no air bubbles, just a story with a few choice (but great) illustrations, recounting a tale worth reading from Dr. Strange’s tutelage under The Ancient One.This is something I would really love to see serialised, and I’m sure it’s due for a re-read or two. Check it out.
