When Stephen Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) opened up the portal to the multiverse in Spider-Man: No Way Home It helped open a can of worms for the Marvel Cinematic Universe that had far-reaching plot implications that expanded to the current canon that was explored in multiple projects Other projects scratched the surface, like three recent Disney+[...]

Stephen Strange is a very flawed hero, and this comic highlights that in an interesting and kinda gutsy manner.
It's still good, but it could have been so much better if it were just told beginning-middle-end instead of the unnecessary scrambling with which we were presented.

While some of the deliberate lack of repentance on the part of Stephen Strange and the lack of focus on the members of the Midnight Sons that aren't Wong and Strange does bother me, this final installment didn't really get on my nerves as much as the first.
Don't get me wrong, this issue still has[...]
While it's difficult to shake the impression that this is all filler while the main story rides out in Damnation proper, this isn't a bad way to handle a filler story.
Calling it filler actually feels unfair, as there is some character work being done with Stephen Strange in this comic, as Bats tries to shake[...]
The opening scenes have narration from Stephen Strange treating what he did like a whoopsie-daisy, Wong seems unwilling to admit that Strange messed this one up, and even Ghost Rider talks about how Doctor Strange has caused messes like this before.
However, there is enough unique and enjoyable content in Damnation #2 to better offset the[...]
While the opening scene with Doctor Strange and the ghost of Bats had the right kind of charm to it, the sequence of Strange playing cards with Mephisto shows that Nick Spencer and Donny Cates may not know the kind of story they have constructed.
Considering the horrific images shown in the last issue and the[...]
I generally love Stephen Strange, but he has caused even further torment to a city already suffering from a different superhero-caused catastrophe Mephisto even has a line about how the past actions of Marvel's heroes will almost certainly end up with them in Hell, and you can't help but believe him considering what Strange has[...]

He paints a world that seems like it would be the one that Stephen Strange should live within Jordie Bellaire matches that with a darker yet well-contrasted color palette The two make a great-looking comic here.
Doctor Strange #383 is a compelling and interesting continuation to the "Loki: Sorcerer Supreme" story It takes some interesting turns,[...]

Doctor Strange #26 looks great, and Henrichon's dark and grimy style fits the wild world of Stephen Strange perfectly His color work is just as good, and his Doctor Strange work absolutely oozes with atmosphere.
Doctor Strange looks to be back on track under Barber and Henrichon The two put together a great comic book, and[...]
Doctor Strange deals with a forgotten enemy of the past in this issue, but does this mind-bending tale of memory hold water?
It might not be the most brilliant issue of the current Doctor Strange comic, but #24 is still a fun read and probably Hopeless’s best work on the title.
