Owner's Description
Strange Tales #110 is the early Silver Age Marvel key that introduced Doctor Strange! An early, enduring superhero in the Marvel Universe, Doctor Strange is the preeminent mystical hero that Marvel ever created. The "Master of the Mystic Arts" is now more popular than ever due to the character being introduced to billions of fans worldwide via the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The character's visibility has been elevated worldwide, into an entirely different "plane of existence!" Significant to many storylines through the decades, this year, in film, Strange makes appearances in both Spider-Man: Brand New Day and Avengers: Doomsday!
In addition to the first appearance of Doctor Strange, this issue also features the first appearances of the Ancient One, Nightmare and Wong. It also features the first Paste-Pot Pete and Wizard team-up, both of whom would later join forces with Sandman and Medusa to become the Frightful Four in FF #36. Our 9.6 is one of seven highest graded copies and one of the stars of our Marvel collection, as we have been bidding unsuccessfully in this book for over 15 years, but finally one came along at a better price and we mortgaged the house and jumped. We acquired the book from the 5/28/2026 ComicLink Auction. Please no 9.8s of this one CGC.
