Wait, so he's floating above his own body, being attacked by it? Really?! Wow, I need to BUY THIS NOW, Mr. Convenience Store Clerk! So then I pick up this issue and #81, and Doc survives this great attack on everything that he holds dear, and it's really all quite awesome and it's my new favorite title and then... the book gets cancelled. Ouch. Well, ok, not CANCELLED, but he had to share book with Cloak & Dagger. Close enough. That said, these Peter Gillis issues (with Chris Warner, Richard Case, Randy Emberlin, and awesome Janice Chiang lettering) made me a Doc fan for life. Great stuff. I may reread them now :) This is the comic cover that got me to pick up Dr. Strange for the first time as a 10 year old. Wait, so he’s floating above his own body, being attacked by it? Really?!
