yeah, this whole thread sounds like it was very, very badly thought out and written.

“I�m expected to believe that Captain America would hand over his mentally ill and comatose teammate to her estranged a father � a known criminal who just months before tried to destroy New York � without batting an eye? And no one else says anything, not even Nick Fury? This ending seems one of the the most unlikely parts of the entire storyline to me. ”

No, no no. His mentally ill, comatose and highly dangerous teammate to her estranged, troubled father the often ruthless super-villian.

I have worked out ‘based on the Marvel RPG’ how the sorcerer levels would work.

Strange should have said ‘Sorcerer Supreme’ here. As master there is still one level higher. And that is the Sorcerer Supreme. He already reached that level waaay back in the Frank Brunner issues.

Al his time as Master of the Mystic arts his mentor the Ancient One was still alive. The Ancient One was Earth’s Sorcerer Supreme untill his death when it past to Strange.

Every mage can reach master level in his order of magic. Like Shaman (Michael TwoYoungman) is a master in elemental magic and Agatha Harkness is/was a master in Witchcraft. To reach Sorcerer Supreme status you also have to have considerable knowledge about the other orders.

There are real tests both theoretical and practical in the apprantenships. We have seen Clea and Rintrah do some of these tests in the past while studiying under Dr. Strange.
