• Sir Isaac Newton, Sorcerer Supreme of his day, has mastered an ancient, evil magic and has gone power-mad.
•  It's up to the Sorcerers Supreme to stop him from sending the world - and all of their own individual timelines - into chaos.
•  Unfortunately, even with the Avengers on their side, it seems like they are still no match for Newton.

    This issue is as strange as the Doctor himself. Howard is a personal favourite of mine so it makes me smile when he's around. This is a good read for any Dr Strange fan, the story is well told and you are given just enough back story to understand what's going on. The art work reminds me of some of the old 80/90's comics and it gives it retro feel to the start of this issue. 4 out 5. Read Full Review

    This is definitely a series that is not afraid to do things different and take some chances. It makes it one of the more interesting titles to follow and one that I think will be talked about after it is really discovered. In this issue the crew are trapped in the Authors book of spells and need to find an unusual way to escape. Doctor Strange shows why even without his magic being strong, he is still the Sorcerer Supreme. There is some absolutely fantastic art that uses the trippy nature of the title to its advantage. Some fun humor with guest star Howard the Duck. Also an interesting cliffhanger involving Wiccan.

    Grabby the magic monster is defeated and many (not all) of the heroes' injuries are healed. But the victory is not without cost. I won't spoil the exact nature of the cost; it should be screamingly obvious to anybody who's paid attention to the previous issues. That's my biggest fault with this issue: The plotting is lazy. Characterization is also strictly pro forma, but at least the dialogue is decent. So why isn't this whole comic a disappointment? Because problematic as it is, the plot gives artist Javier Rodriguez an excuse to go completely ☠☠☠☠ mental in a great way, especially in the first scene. The first five pages of this issue are likely to stick in your memory long after the larger story has faded away. It's definitely a more

    The artwork is really cool but I like a story with a bit more depth. The last few issues haven't been that great in my opinion
